METHYLENE BLUE ADSORPTION TEST
High potency and fast action are now built into a wide range of pharmaceuticals for the treatment of intestinal disorders (liquids, tablets, capsules) with the addition of PHARMASORB, MCP's unique mineral adsorbent. PHARMASORB is an activated attapulgite fully acceptable for internal use. It is a highly sorptive natural earth mineral that also has indicated uses for external medications, such as fungici dal powders and acne preparations, as well as its already accepted efficacy in the selective ad sorption of endotoxins, viruses and certain bacteria. PHARMASORB's ability to adsorb endotoxins rapidly from the intestinal tract is the reason why new anti-diarrhea preparations containing PHARMASORB provide such quick relief from the nausea and cramps associated with this condition. Additionally PHARMASORB is finding wide acceptance in veterinary medicine preparation such as drenches and boluses for the treatment of large animals. Technical literature

APPLICATIONS OF NON-METALLIC MINERALS ACTIVATED BAUXITE Interesting mineral for petroleum and chemical processing Bauxite, commonly known as the prime source of aluminum, develops a highly active surface structure when thermally activated, becomes hard, durable, sorptive and catalytic. Used for drying gases and liquids, catalyzing chemical reactions, re moving color, odor, and taste. Perhaps it can fit into your present processing or solve a problem . . . worth looking into.
