Calcium formate assisted catalytic pyrolysis of pine for enhanced production of monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons over bimetal-modified HZSM-5
An efficient process was developed to selectively produce monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (MAHs) from ex-situ catalytic fast pyrolysis (CFP) of pine assisted with calcium formate (CF) over bimetal-modified HZSM-5. Mo and another metal (Mg, Ga or Zn) were used to modify the HZSM-5, and the as-synthesized bimetal-modified HZSM-5 catalysts were utilized for both pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry…

Effect of calcium formate as an additive on desulfurization in power plants
SO2 in flue gas needs to be eliminated to alleviate air pollution. As the quality of coal decreases and environmental standard requirements become more stringent, the high-efficiency desulfurization of flue gas faces more and more challenges. As an economical and environmentally friendly solution, the effect of calcium formate as an additive on desulfurization efficiency in the…

Relative bioavailability of calcium from calcium formate, calcium citrate, and calcium carbonate
Calcium is an essential nutrient required in substantial amounts, but many diets are deficient in calcium making supplementation necessary or desirable. The objective of this study was to compare the oral bioavailability of calcium from calcium formate, a new experimental dietary calcium supplement, to that of calcium citrate and calcium carbonate. In a four-way crossover…

Absorption and elimination of formate following oral administration of calcium formate in female human subjects
Calcium formate is a water-soluble salt of an essential mineral nutrient with potential for use as a dietary calcium supplement. Formate ion is a product of endogenous and xenobiotic metabolism, but sustained high plasma formate concentrations (such as occur in cases of methanol poisoning) are toxic to the retina and optic nerve. Humans and primates…

Ocular and systemic safety evaluation of calcium formate as a dietary supplement
Purpose: The objective of this study was to perform a preliminary evaluation of the ocular and systemic safety of calcium formate, a dietary calcium supplement for prevention and management of osteoporosis. Although formate is an endogenous product of metabolism, high concentrations are associated with toxicity during methanol overdose. Methods: In this prospective clinical trial, 12 healthy women…

An investigation of the safety of oral calcium formate in dairy cows using clinical, biochemical and histopathological parameters
Aim: To investigate the safety of orally administered calcium formate in dairy cows fed adequate amounts of good quality pasture. Methods: Twelve mixed-age pasture-fed lactating dairy cows were randomly allocated to three groups (n=4 cows/ group). Group 1 served as untreated controls. Group 2 was treated orally with 400 ml of 13.4% (w/w) calcium as calcium chloride…

Ferrous sulfate does not affect mycophenolic acid pharmacokinetics in kidney transplant patients
Background: Oral administration of ferrous-sulfate was reported to decrease intestinal absorption of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in healthy Japanese individuals by 90%. Methods: We examined the effect of a single oral dose of ferrous sulfate on steady-state mycophenolic acid pharmacokinetics in 10 iron-deficient (hypochromic red blood cells >2.5%), Caucasian, long-term kidney graft recipients using a randomized, open-label, crossover…

Iron bioavailability of a casein-based iron fortificant compared with that of ferrous sulfate in whole milk: a randomized trial with a crossover design in adult women
Background: A highly soluble iron-casein complex has been developed for food fortification purposes with the aim to provide high iron bioavailability. Objective: We aimed to determine the iron bioavailability of the iron-casein complex relative to that of ferrous sulfate (control) when given with whole milk in healthy young women. Methods: A randomized comparator-controlled trial with a crossover design…

Comparison of ferrous sulfate and ferrous glycinate chelate for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia in gastrectomized patients
Objectives: Postgastrectomy iron deficiency anemia has a variable prevalence and occurs in 20-50% of patients. Food fortification reports examining ferrous glycinate chelate have shown that it can be 2.5-3.4 times more bioavailable than ferrous sulfate, with minimal gastrointestinal symptoms. The present study was designed as a controlled experimental study including 18 gastrectomized patients with iron deficiency…
