Abstract:Antibiotics generally cause drug-resistant genes (ARGs) and drug-resistant bacteria (ARBs). With a complex class of antibiotics, it is very crucial to select specific adsorbents for different kinds of antibiotics. Zn-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) and calcined layered double hydroxide (LDO) were prepared as absorbents for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) and ofloxacin (OFX), which were two antibiotics with different structures. According to the results of the adsorption experiments, LDO has the best adsorpt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
