Abstract: Compositions and methods including a bioactive compound and a triazine compound comprising: formula (I) or formula (II) and proton tautomers and salts thereof . Each R2 is independently selected from any electron donating group, electron withdrawing group and electron neutral group. R3 is selected from the group consisting of substituted heteroaromatic rings, unsubstituted heteroaromatic rings, substituted heterocyclic rings, and unsubstituted heterocyclic rings, that are linked to the triazine group through a nitrogen atom within a ring of R3.

Abstract: An activated carbon composition is disclosed, which includes an activated carbon and a carboxylic acid containing compound. The activated carbon composition is prepared by immersing an activated carbon in an aqueous solution of a carboxylic acid containing compound. The activated carbon composition is used for purifying aqueous solutions by providing a bed of the activated carbon composition and passing the aqueous solution through the bed of the activated carbon composition. The aqueous solution is passed through the bed such that the flow of the aqueous solution to be purified into the bed and the flow of purified aqueous solution from the bed has a pH differential less than ±1 pH.

Abstract: A system for storing items on a vehicle bed utilizing a platform fixed relative to the walls of the bed. The platform is spaced from the bottom of the vehicle bed to from a chamber. First and second tracks connect to the platform within the chamber. A ramp slidingly moves along the track into a first position where the ramp rests on the ground surface or into a second position where the ramp lies in the chamber. The gate connected to the ramp closes the chamber in the truck bed beneath the ramp.
