ADSORPTION OF BASIC YELLOW 28 (BY 28) AND ACID YELLOW 23 (AY 23) DYES ONTO CHITIN
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
The present study investigated the sorption of Basic Yellow 28 (BY 28) and Acid Yellow 23 (AY 23) by chitin flakes. The study determined the influence of pH value on adsorption effectiveness and the adsorption capacity of chitin flakes. The results were described with Freundlich, Langmuir, Sips and double Langmuir isotherms. Similar values of adsorption capacities were achieved for both tested dyes using Langmuir, Sips and Langmuir2 models, i.e. 16.804, 17.740 and 18687 mg/g d.m. for BY28 as well as 24.195, 27.930 and 24.196 mg/g d.m. for AY23, respectively. The isotherms were compared with the use of average relative error (ARE) of approximation. In the case of both dyes, the best fit to experimental data was achieved with the use of tri-parametric Sips equilibrium isotherm, which was indicated by ARE values of 3.10% (BY 28) and 5.26% (AY 23).

Physicochemical properties of chitin-protein complex from shell of RED KING crab (Paralithodes camtchaticus) at various stages of molting cycle
It is worth of note that the studies have shown the substantial differences in the physicochemical characteristics of the chitin-protein complex isolated from the crab shell at various stages of the molting cycle. Perhap...
STUDIES OF GENTAMYCIN ADSORPTION ON CHITOSAN
Chitosan as a dietary supplement has been used in the treatment of obesity due to its capability of binding bioactive compounds. A molecule of a cationic polymer, such as chitosan, may bind gentamycin. The aim of the stu...
THE ROLE OF CHITOSAN IN AKT KINASE REGULATION ACTIVITY
A decrease in migration of tumor cells incubated with the investigated chitosan preparations was correlated with a decreased activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 metalloproteinases, what significantly affected inhibition of tumor...
SYNTHESIS OF CHITOSAN AND CARBOXYMETHYL CHITOSAN HYDROGELS BY ELECTRON BEAM IRRADIATION
Solutions of chitosan (CS) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) were subjected to irradiation by electron beam in presence of a crosslinking agent (poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate - PEGDA) in order to produce carboxymethyl...
APPLICATION OF CHITOSAN IN THE FORMULATION OF METHYL CELLULOSE-BASED HYDROGELS
The aim of this work was to study the properties of methylcellulose hydrogels with supplements containing chitosan and 1% hydrocortisone. Depending on the composition of the substrate, gels are characterised by a variety...
