  • METAL CHELATING COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING THE GROWTH OR ACTIVITIES OF A LIVING CELL OR ORGANISM
    Publication number: 20200297848
    Abstract: The present invention provides for metal chelating compositions which are soluble in aqueous media. The present invention also provides chelating compositions that possess acceptable iron sequestering strengths and are able to present a physical form that potentially inhibits (e.g. does not permit easy) access of iron sequestered by the compositions to the cells being targeted. Compositions comprising chelating aspects affixed to or incorporated into suitable carrier materials such that the resulting metal chelating composition is soluble in aqueous media are also provided. Disclosed herein are chelating compositions, for chelating one or more essential metals.
    Type: Application

  • Process for the recovery of heavy metals such as lead from metal contaminated soil
    Patent number: 5772776
    Abstract: A process for decontaminating a metal contaminated soil aggregate wherein at least one water soluble dialkyldithiocarbamate is admixed with an initial soil slurry so as to obtain a product aqueous soil slurry comprising one or more water insoluble metal-dialkyldithiocarbamate complexes which insoluble complexes may then be physically separated from the soil slurry to leave behind a product having a metal contamination level lower than that of the initial contaminated soil.
