MOF@activated carbon: a new material for adsorption of aldicarb in biological systems

A new composite was synthesized by the hydrothermal method using a 3D coordination network [Ln(2)(C4H4O4)(3)(H2O)(2)]center dot H2O (Ln = Eu and Tb) and activated carbon. The coordination network is formed within the pores of the charcoal, allowing for the use of this material as a detoxifying agent.
