A COMPARISON OF SORPTION EFFICIENCY OF BASIC VIOLET 10 ONTO CHITOSAN AND FLY ASHES AND SAWDUST IMMOBILIZED ONTO CHITOSAN
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2008, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
The course of adsorption curves and calculated values of adsorption capacity point to diversified efficiency of Basic Violet 10 removal depending on the type of sorbent. Data obtained indicate that immobilization of sawdust onto chitosan had a positive effect on the quantity of removed dye, whereas in the case of fly ashes immobilization onto chitosan the quantity of removed dye was substantially lower as compared to absorption capacity obtained both for chitosan and fly ashes.

PROCEDURE FOR DETERMINATION OF THE MOLECULAR WEIGHT OF CHITOSAN BY VISCOMETRY
The aim of this publication is to facilitate the estimation of chitosan molecular weight (MW) in laboratories with no access to sophisticated analytical instruments, by applying the easily accessible and economical capil...
SCREENING OF THE CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF Pd0 AND Pd2+- SUPPORTED ON CHITOSAN BEADS AND CRYOGELS
Here, we report the results of screening of the catalytic activity of Pd-containing chitosan beads and cryogels in the cross-coupling reaction, hydrogenation of alkenes, nitro-, and carbonyl compounds and the hydrodechlo...
CHARACTERISTICS OF ASCORBIC ACID RELEASE FROM TPP-CROSSLINKED CHITOSAN/ALGINATE POLYELECTROLYTE COMPLEX MEMBRANES
Chitosan/alginate polyelectrolyte complex membranes (Ch/Alg) additionally cross-linked with tripolyphosphate (TPP) and containing ascorbic acid (AA) were prepared. The dynamic swelling behaviour of Ch/Alg/TPP and ascorbi...
EVALUATION ACTIVITIES OF CHITOSAN ASCORBATE AGAINST RODS OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI ISOLATED FROM GINGIVAL POCKETS AND ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUES
The aim of the study was determine activity of chitosan ascorbate against 17 strains of Helicobacter pylori. The strains were isolated from gingival pockets (7 strains), atherosclerotic plaques from carotid and femoral (...
ANALYSIS OF MODEL DRUG RELEASE KINETICS FROM COMPLEX MATRICES OF POLYLACTIDE-CHITOSAN
In the present paper the Authors analyse the experimental results of a model drug (ibuprofen) release approximated with three commonly used semi-empirical models: Korsmeyer-Peppas, first order kinetics and Gallagher-Corr...
