Removal of antibiotics from water sample via PGC material As shown in Table 5, approximately 70% and 60% of antibiotics content (including tetracyline (TC), oxytetracycline (OTC), chlortetracycline (CTC), and doxycycline (DOX)) in standard solution

• (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

• solvothermal method to obtain a novel 0D/3D heterojunction Bi2O3/MIL101(Fe) (BOM). The morphology and optical properties of the as-prepared Bi2O3/MIL101(Fe) composite were characterized. The photocatalytic activity of the synthesized samples was evaluated by degrading chlortetracycline (CTC) under visible

• . The intermediate products were analyzed by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS), and a possible photocatalytic degradation path of CTC was proposed. This work provides a new perspective for the preparation of efficient MOF-based photocatalysts. Keywords: Bi2O3; chlortetracycline; metal

• ]. Chlortetracycline (CTC) is the first tetracycline antibiotic used for veterinary purposes [3]. Due to the abusive use of CTC in livestock industry and the low absorption in animals, a large amount of CTC has been released into the environment through animal excretions. At present, CTC has been detected in aquatic

Recently, increasing concentrations of pharmaceutically active compounds, especially antibiotics, such as chlortetracycline in water and wastewater sources has raised concerns about their potentially adverse impacts on environment and human health. In this
