Effects of the processing steps on parathion levels during honey production and parathion removal by macroporous adsorption resins

Removal of Chloramphenicol by Macroporous Adsorption Resins in Honey: A Novel Approach on Reutilization of Antibiotics Contaminated Honey

“…Obviously, LS‐803 was the optimal resin. This result was similar to the previous study carried out by Xu and others (2012). The performance of MARs related to the chemical features and physical properties of resins.…”

“…As shown in Figure 1, after preheating and filtration processing stages, the loss of CAP was only 1.9%, which contributes no significantly differences to CAP reduction. The result showed that CAP was stable at low temperature during thermal processing, which was similar to the previous studies carried out by Zhu and others (2010) and Xu and others (2012). However, the researchers also revealed that filtration contribute to the reduction of organophosphorus insecticides in honey significantly.…”

“…This phenomenon revealed that the adsorption ability of LS‐803 resin on CAP reached the equilibrium around 40 min, with the reduction rate of above 81%. The study carried out by Xu and others (2012) revealed that the equilibrium time of LS‐803 adsorption on parathion was 90 min. This might be due to the different chemical properties between CAP and parathion.…”

“…Usually, 4 steps such as preheating, filtration, vacuum concentration, and pasteurization (bottling) are included in raw honey processing. These steps are important factors that lead to the reduction of organophosphorus in honey (Zhu and others 2010; Xu and others 2012). Nevertheless, few studies have been made to investigate the persistence of CAP in honey during honey processing.…”

“…Macroporous adsorption resins (MARs) is a kind of safety and no toxicity sorbent, which can be frequently used in the separation and purification of target compounds from many plant extracts because of its simpler operation, higher efficiency, less yielding cost, more friendly to environment, and easier regeneration (Sun and others 2009; Liu and others 2010). MARs has been used to remove organophosphorus insecticides in honey (Xu and others 2012). Our objectives in this study were to investigate the effects of different processing steps including preheating, filtration, vacuum concentration, and pasteurization on CAP residue levels and to develop a new method for removing CAP from honey by MARs.…”
