Merck, 05105-1KG, Activated charcoal

• Fiber coating to compare solid-phase microextraction efficiency of the multiwalled carbon nanotubes in water and milk samples before GC-ECD analysis.
• It may be used to study its effect on tissue cultures of Daucus carota, Happlopapus gracilis and Allum cepa var. proliferum, to check the adsorption of metabolites inhibiting morphognesis.
• It may also be used in the plant tissue culture to increase the adsorption of auxin and cytokinin from the culture media.
• It may also be used as the primary gastrointestinal decontamination procedure after acute drug overdose.
• It may also be used for the adsorption of dyes namely malachite green, bromophenol blue, alizarine red-S, methylene blue, eriochrome black-T, phenol red, methyl blue, and methyl violet from aqueous media.
• Oral activated charcoal may be also used for adsorption of theophylline, hence can be effectively used in patients with theophylline poisoning.

Activated charcoal is a high-surface-area carbon powder used as an adsorbent for removal of organic impurities, pigments, odor-causing compounds, and other dissolved substances from compatible liquids. This configuration contains 1 kg. The material is characterized by strong adsorption performance, including iodine and methylene-blue adsorption specifications, making it useful for purification, decolorization, sample cleanup, and laboratory process development. Activated carbon can also serve as a sorbent or catalyst-support material in chemical and analytical workflows. Because adsorption behavior depends strongly on the target molecule, solvent, pH, and contact conditions, loading and treatment time are selected for the specific purification method.
