Abstract Different weights at (10, 20, 30,40,50,60, and 70milligrams) of bentonite clay were incubated with 1milliliters of serum, mixed vigorously at room temperature. Serum total protein (STP), albumin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were estimated before and after adsorption. Desorption processes were carried out by mixing one milliliter of distilled water with the clay that produced from adsorption process and measurement of the substances that released to the water. Albumin showed the highest adsorption capability followed by STP, ALP, ALT, and AST. The desorption process revealed that there are more than one half of the quantities adsorbed on bentonite were able to be eluted by distilled water. In conclusion, the bentonite clay has the ability to adsorb and extract of some blood component from human serum. | ||
