  • Publication number: 20220097034
    Abstract: A new family of rare-earth silicate compositions and the synthetic methods used to prepare them. The materials have open-framework structures and are characterized by their ion-exchange properties. They are represented by the following empirical formula: Ar+pMs+1-xM?t+xSinOm where A is an exchangeable cation such as sodium, M is at least one element selected from the group of rare-earth elements, and M? is a framework metal having a valence of +2, +3, +4, or +5. The rare-earth silicate materials have utility in various cation-exchange applications such as dialysis and removal of toxic metals from the gastrointestinal tract.

  • Publication number: 20220096962
    Abstract: A process for removing Pb2+, Hg2+, K+ and NH4+ toxins from bodily fluids is disclosed. The process involves contacting the bodily fluid with an ion exchange composition to remove the metal toxins in the bodily fluid, including blood and gastrointestinal fluid. Alternatively, blood can be contacted with a dialysis solution which is then contacted with the ion exchange composition. The ion exchange compositions are represented by the following empirical formula: Ar+pMs+1-xM?t+xSinOm A composition comprising the above ion exchange compositions in combination with bodily fluids or dialysis solution is also disclosed. The ion exchange compositions may be supported by porous networks of biocompatible polymers such as carbohydrates or proteins.

  • Publication number: 20220096724
    Abstract: A process for removing Pb2+, Hg2+ and other heavy metal toxins from bodily fluids is disclosed. The process involves treating a patient with a small molecule heavy metal chelator to remove these toxins from bones and soft tissue cells into the blood or other bodily fluid. Then an ion exchange composition is used to ion exchange the heavy metal toxins from bodily fluids either within the body or by treatment outside the body such as by dialysis. The ion exchange compositions may be supported by porous networks of biocompatible polymers such as carbohydrates or proteins.
