The effect of water-soluble sorbents on exocrine function of the liver was studied in chronic experiments on 2 dogs with a brought out bile duct. It is shown that choline and digitonin sorbents exhibit choleretic properties similar to those of cholestyramine. Choline sorbent causes a drop in the concentration of (2-4-fold) cholic acid in the bile unlike digitonin sorbent. No prolonging action was seen upon cholestyramine administration, while choline sorbent do demonstrate it. Cholesterol and bilirubin levels do not respond noticeably to the above sorbents.

Herein, we have synthesized a three-dimensional and hydrophobic graphene incorporated carbon aerogel (G-SCA) derived from sugar. G-SCA is being used as a multifunctional sorbent material for removing various advanced water-soluble and insoluble pollutants. Initially, G-SCA is being explored for the adsorption of nitroarenes (nitrophenols, 3-nitroaniline), an insecticide (Phoskill), an antibiotic (ciprofloxacin), and a pharmaceutical drug precursor (pyridine).

Phosphogypsum, a typical by-product in the phosphorus chemical industry, could generate a large amount of leachate containing phosphate and fluoride in the process of rainfall and long-term stacking, which not only causes serious environmental pollution, but also leads to a waste of resources. In this study, a united treatment of calcium hydroxide precipitation and lanthanum zeolite (La-ZFA) adsorption was proposed to achieve the recovery of phosphate and fluoride from phosphogypsum leachate. In phosphogypsum, most phosphorus could be leached except P in the residual occurrence form, while for fluoride, only water-soluble F could be effectively leached.

Adsorption-based atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) with solar-driven photothermal desorption has become an effective means of solving freshwater scarcity in arid regions due to its low energy consumption and high efficiency. Moisture adsorption and desorption capacities are the most critical properties in AWH, and it is a challenge to improve the rate of moisture adsorption and desorption of composite adsorbents. Therefore, this paper reports a SA/carboxymethyl chitosan (CCS)/C/CaCl-U composite aerogel adsorbents with simultaneously green, low-cost, degradable, and fast hygroscopicity and desorption kinetics.

Clubroot, caused by , is a major disease that significantly impairs the yield of cruciferous crops and causes significant economic losses across the globe. The prevention of clubroot, especially in tumorous stem mustard (without resistant varieties), are is limited and primarily relies on fungicides. Engineered nanoparticles have opened up new avenues for the management of plant diseases, but there is no report on their application in the prevention of clubroot.

Water-soluble polymers (WSPs) are used in diverse applications, including agricultural formulations, that can result in the release of WSPs to soils. WSP biodegradability in soils is desirable to prevent long-term accumulation and potential associated adverse effects. In this work, we assessed adsorption of five candidate biodegradable WSPs with varying chemistry, charge, and polarity characteristics (i.
