Poly-ferric magnesium sulfate coagulant as another water purifying agent besides poly-aluminum multi-salt can be quantitatively produced through ferrous sulfate oxidation with high product concentration. This article starts with the selection of raw material, then elaborates process flow from a small-scale lab simulate experiment to a large-scale production of this high concentration water purifying agent. According to the corporate technical standard of this product, chemical compositions of the primary material (ferrous sulfate heptahydrate) and auxiliary materials (alkalizing agent, oxidizer, etc.), and the alkalinity of the product (B=8%), this article provides calculation of the raw materials’ input and output for producing 1 ton of the product liquid. The reaction is carried out step-by-step in a heating reactor equipped with acidic mist re-flux tower and filtration devices. The first step: ferrous sulfate oxidation by sodium chlorate; the second step: polymerization, precipitation, and filtration separation; the third step: arsenic and heavy metal check and precipitate separation by flocculating precipitant and metal chelating precipitant; last, use the laboratory test results to back calculating alkalinity (B%), coagulation strength (C%), and molecular formula of the final product liquid. This article not only rationalizes the feasibility with chemical/physical mechanisms this technique, formulation, production method, but also guides through the back calculation to provide data of the properties as a documentation of the certificate of analysis for the product.

The kidney performs several important functions in the body. Its failure leads to a dysfunction that deserves a solution. Thus, this study was initiated to investigate the protective effects of omega-3 fatty acids on nephrotoxicity. For this purpose, 48 Albino Wistar rats (male and female) were divided into 8 groups of 6 rats. The first group, serving as a control, received 1 mL/g body weight of distilled water daily by gavage and a 0.9% NaCl solution intraperitoneally one hour later. The second, received gentamicin at a dose of 80 mg/Kg/day by intraperitoneal injection for 7 days, the third, treated with the combination of omega 3 by gavage at a dose of 200 mg/Kg of body weight plus gentamicin by intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 80 mg/Kg for the same period. The fourth, treated with the combination of omega 3 by gavage at a dose of 600 mg/Kg body weight plus gentamycin by intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 80 mg/Kg for 7 days, the fifth, treated with the combination of vitamin E at a dose of 250 mg/kg/day body weight by gavage plus gentamicin by intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 80 mg/Kg for 7 days. The sixth and seventh received 200 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg body weight by gavage of omega-3 for 7 days, respectively. The last group received vitamin E at a dose of 250 mg/kg/day of body weight by gavage. Omega-3 at a dose of 600 mg/kg body weight exerts a protective effect against induced nephrotoxicity in rats (especially females), with a decrease in urea and creatinine levels. The consumption of food rich in omega 3 in the protection of the kidneys advised. Further studies could be envisaged to compare the protective effects of omega-3 with other polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-6 and 9) on nephrotoxicity.

Obesity has repeatedly been linked to reorganization of the gut microbiome, yet to this point obesity therapeutics have been targeted exclusively toward the human host. Here, we show that gut microbe-targeted inhibition of the trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) pathway protects mice against the metabolic disturbances associated with diet-induced obesity (DIO) or leptin deficiency (Lepob/ob). Small molecule inhibition of the gut microbial enzyme choline TMA-lyase (CutC) does not reduce food intake but is instead associated with alterations in the gut microbiome, improvement in glucose tolerance, and enhanced energy expenditure. We also show that gut microbial CutC inhibition is associated with reorganization of host circadian control of both phosphatidylcholine and energy metabolism. This study underscores the relationship between microbe and host metabolism and provides evidence that gut microbe-derived trimethylamine (TMA) is a key regulator of the host circadian clock. This work also demonstrates that gut microbe-targeted enzyme inhibitors have potential as anti-obesity therapeutics.
