• (tetracyline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, and doxycycline) from aquaculture water. RSM was used to determine the optimal synthesis parameters for PGC, which were CMC mass (1.5 g), PVA mass (1.0 g), GA volume (0.01 mL), and Ca2+/Zn2+ molar ratio (0.1). FTIR, EDX, FE-SEM, and BET analyses were used to
