Comparison of adsorptive capacity for different types of activated charcoal for common veterinary toxicants.

Activated charcoal (AC) is a convenient, effective method for gastrointestinal decontamination, typically supplied as either activated charcoal powder (pAC) or proprietary mixtures in granules or suspension (e.g., Toxiban®, Tox). We compared the adsorptive capacity for common veterinary toxicants of a new resin-bound activated charcoal product (Ready Rescue™; RR) to PAC and Tox. We hypothesized that RR is equivale…
