TL;DR: In this article, the sorption of lead by the natural and Fe(III)-modified zeolite (clinoptilolite) is described, and the effects of sorbents dose and the initial lead concentrations on its sorption by two Sorbents were investigated.
117 citations
TL;DR: P pH dependence of AFB1 adsorption, while AFB1 has the same form at all pHs, demonstrated that the surface modification of the zeolite depends on pH and that these modifications have influence on its adsor adaptation.
115 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, the in vitro mycotoxins adsorption by natural clinoptilolite––heulandite rich tuff modified with different amounts of octadecyldimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride (Do) and dioctadecyrdimethyl ammonium (Pr) was investigated.
110 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of contact time, temperature and particle size on lead sorption by the natural and Fe(III)-modified zeolites was investigated by determination of textural properties.
107 citations
TL;DR: In this study an investigation of a model drug sorption onto cationic surfactant-modified natural zeolite composites as a drug formulation excipient revealed that that adsorption and partitioning of the model drug take place simultaneously.

TL;DR: A review of the recent development of natural zeolites as adsorbents in water and wastewater treatment can be found in this paper, where the properties and modification of natural zerosite are discussed and the modified zerosites achieving higher adsorption capacity for organics and anions.

TL;DR: Various control strategies to prevent the growth of mycotoxigenic fungi as well as to inhibit mycotoxin biosynthesis including pre-harvest (resistance varieties, field management and the use of biological and chemical agents), harvest management, and post-Harvest (improving of drying and storage conditions, theUse of natural and chemicalagents, and irradiation) applications are reviewed.
Abstract: Mycotoxins are fungal secondary metabolites that have been associated with severe toxic effects to vertebrates produced by many important phytopathogenic and food spoilage fungi including Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, and Alternaria species. The contamination of foods and animal feeds with mycotoxins is a worldwide problem. We reviewed various control strategies to prevent the growth of mycotoxigenic fungi as well as to inhibit mycotoxin biosynthesis including pre-harvest (resistance varieties, field management and the use of biological and chemical agents), harvest management, and post-harvest (improving of drying and storage conditions, the use of natural and chemical agents, and irradiation) applications. While much work in this area has been performed on the most economically important mycotoxins, aflatoxin B(1) and ochratoxin A much less information is available on other mycotoxins such as trichothecenes, fumonisin B(1), zearalenone, citrinin, and patulin. In addition, physical, chemical, and biological detoxification methods used to prevent exposure to the toxic and carcinogenic effect of mycotoxins are discussed. Finally, dietary strategies, which are one of the most recent approaches to counteract the mycotoxin problem with special emphasis on in vivo and in vitro efficacy of several of binding agents (activated carbons, hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate, bentonite, zeolites, and lactic acid bacteria) have also been reviewed.
