APPLICATION OF CARBON ENTEROSORBENTS
Mycotoxin
contamination of food is extremely urgent, it is an integral part of the global
problem of pollution of the biosphere. Long-term studies like ours and abroad
indicate that mycotoxins produced by fungi of the genus Fusarium, are the most
prevalent in the world of mycotoxins [3].
In the
last decade, in Europe there is a trend to increased contamination of grains of
T-2 toxin, which is one of the most toxic of trichothecene mycotoxins [1, 2].
According
to our data promising in acute poisoning with T-2 toxin was the application of
charcoal BAU-A and charcoal in combination with white clay and bran, which
delayed the growth of clinical signs of toxicity, the survival rate in this
case was 80 and 70%, respectively.
For a
full understanding chelator studied the adsorption capacity of the different
groups with respect to T-2 toxin experience predict in vitro, since it is one
of the classic methods of screening substances to find potential adsorbent.
The
first stage was conducted determination chelator absorbency at pH 7 and a
temperature of 37-39 °C. The results showed that the highest adsorption
capacity in a neutral medium at 37-39 ° C showed charcoal BAU-A, slightly
smaller % sorption was observed in the same grade of coal in combination with
white clay and bran, which is apparently due a lower sorption values for T-2
toxin added components.
Indicators
of sorption from commercial chelator, such as Polysorb, Klinofid, Toksfin,
Toksipol were at the level of 75,0-68,4%, with the highest rate in Polysorb.
These chelators are the most common and widely advertised, which served as the
basis for their use as reference drugs in our experiments. Since the pH in
monogastric and ruminant gastrointestinal tract varies greatly in the
transition from the proximal to the distal portion, it is important that a
substance adsorbing mycotoxins could hold them in acidic and alkaline medium.
By
reducing the pH to 2 almost all enterosorbents except charcoal BAU-A tendency
to increase the adsorption capacity. This adsorption capacity at charcoal
changing pH remained at 93.0%. After conducting studies to determine the%
desorption (pH 8), it was established that the absence of chelator Polysorb and
charcoal.
Due to
environmental stress and the problem of obtaining new search sorbents, as well
as the development of new technologies sorption is urgent. Of particular interest
are the large-scale production, such as, for example, timber processing and
resin industries [6]. This can be explained by two reasons. On one hand,
technology manufactures these burdened significant waste. On the other - wood
and its components, the natural compounds are the raw material for the
sorbents, wherein the sorbent is a unique wood charcoal.
Charcoal
is a nanoporous carbon adsorbent with a high internal surface area up to 1000 m2/g
due to irregular channels (pores). Qualitative characteristics of the active
carbon adsorption properties and are completely determined by its porous
structure, which is a loose cells consisting of six-membered carbon rings are
chemically linked with the carbon radicals, hydrogen and oxygen. The raw
material for charcoal is charcoal BAU grade A, derived from solid hardwood
trees, mainly birch. In the production of carbon adsorbents used steam
activation of carbonaceous material, which comprises two steps pyrolysis and
carbonization of raw material to form a porous carbonized material. Next, the
activation of the latter oxidizing agent at high temperature. As the oxidant is
steam. During activation of coal is removed from the surface resin foam, broken
and removed, various organic residues and is closed micropores opening
repositories angle [1]. In this case, the
binding of a large number of toxic substances at the expense of non-specific
van der Waals interactions [15].
A
number of researchers has shown high efficiency of different carbon chelator
for the treatment and prevention of T-2 mycotoxin animals. The main mechanisms
of therapeutic action of carbon chelator is absorption of toxic substances
falling outside the gastrointestinal
tract, it should be borne in mind that in most absorbed by the intestinal
mucosa toxic substances available for the action of carbon adsorbents for only
1-2 hours from the time poisoning [4]; absorption of toxins which diffuse into
the lumen of the blood binding toxic substances emitted with the digestive
juices [2, 25], the absorption of toxic metabolites (endogenous toxins) formed
directly in the digestive tract, which is particularly important when the
barrier function of the intestinal epithelium attenuated by a pathological
process [5]; sorption diet modification, fixation and transfer to the surface
of sorbents physiologically active substances (enzymes, bile acids, etc.), the
change in volume of undigested residue and original properties of the
intestinal contents, type is similar to the presence of fiber in it. Thus, the
use of carbon enterosorbents at T-2 mycotoxin is a perspective that is both
theoretical and practical justification.
