| Abstract |
Background. Various natural and synthetic materials may be sources of enterosorbents. Natural mineral clay arouses certain scientific and practical interest. And in this aspect, Undory therapeutic clay can be regarded as a promising enterosorbent.
Materials and methods. The authors studied Kimmeridgian (blue) “Undory” therapeutic powder clay (TU 9369-002-02590678-2006) in terms of a possibility of creating domestic sorption materials for medical practice on its basis. The elemental composition was studied by mass spectrometry with ionization via an inductively coupled argon plasma spectrometer ICAP-6500 Duo (Thermo Electron Corporation, USA). The fractional composition of the clay was determined by X-ray diffraction using an X-ray diffractometer Bruker Phaser D2 (Germany). The microstructure wasinvestigated by a scanning electron microscope Phenom ProX at 15 kV (detector SEM, electron beam size – 30) in high vacuum. The images were processed in a ProSuite software package of automated solutions. The specific surface area was determined by physical sorption of nitrogen via the BET method (Brunauer-EmmetTeller) on a Carlo ErbaSorpty 1750 device (Italy).
Results and conclusions. The data allow to consider Undory therapeutic clay as a promising source of domestic sorption materials for medical practice.
