Activated charcoal has been used to adsorb intestinal gases in the treatment of flatulence, intestinal distension, and dyspepsia; however, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified activated charcoal as lacking substantial evidence of efficacy as an antiflatulent or digestive aid. Activated charcoal has been used alone or in combination with kaolin in the management of diarrhea but its value has not been established.

/EXPL THER/ Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were covalently linked to epidermal growth factor (EGF) proteins through an esterification process that was found to be responsible for the docking of SWCNTs on the human pancreatic cancer cells (PANC-1) surface, thus providing a mechanism for the enhanced delivery and internalization of the nanotubes. Micro Raman spectroscopy and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to evaluate the delivery process and kinetics of the SWCNTs. In vitro studies indicated that the delivery kinetics of SWCNT-EGF conjugates, at a concentration of 85 ug/mL, to the PANC-1 cell surfaces was significant in the first 30 min of incubation, but reached a plateau with time in accordance with the establishment of equilibrium between the association and the dissociation of EGF with the cell receptors. SWCNT-EGF conjugates could act as strong thermal ablation agents and could induce higher percentages of cellular death compared with the nontargeted SWCNTs alone. /Molecular carrier system/

/EXPL THER/ An array of chemiresistive random network of single-walled carbon nanotubes coated with nonpolymeric organic materials shows a high potential for diagnosis of lung cancer via breath samples. The sensors array shows excellent discrimination between the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in the breath of patients with lung cancer, relative to healthy controls, especially if the sensors array is preceded with either water extractor and/or preconcentrator of VOCs. The pattern compositions of the healthy and cancerous states were determined by gas-chromatography linked with mass-spectroscopy (GC-MS) analysis of real exhaled breath. /Single-walled carbon nanotubes/

4.2 Drug Warning

Charcoal bezoars are a rare complication of activated charcoal administration. They have been associated with treatments for intoxication with carbamazepine, amitriptyline, theophylline, benzodiazepines and barbiturates. The parasympatholytic effects of the drugs can precipitate or contribute to paralytic ileus, allowing charcoal to accumulate (potentially with remnants of undigested tablets) and form bezoars. Additional factors that influence bowel obstruction secondary to charcoal administration include the dose and timing of activated charcoal therapy, patient age and comorbidities, and previous intra-abdominal surgery. Gastrointestinal complications should be considered whenever activated charcoal is administered. Prompt recognition and treatment at the first sign of ileus or obstruction may prevent bowel necrosis and subsequent perforation/peritonitis. Charcoal-stained vomiting, abdominal distension and ongoing pain should raise the suspicion of mechanical obstruction. ... Gastrografin follow-through /was advocated/ as both a diagnostic and potentially therapeutic tool in incomplete obstruction. However, complete obstruction may signal the need for early laparotomy.

/VET/ ... Six healthy adult dogs were administered 4 g/kg activated charcoal (AC) in a commercially available suspension that contained propylene glycol and glycerol as vehicles. Blood samples were taken before and 1, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours after the administration of the test suspension /and/ ... analyzed for osmolality, blood gases, and concentrations of lactate, sodium, potassium, serum urea nitrogen, and glucose. ... Three of the 6 dogs vomited between 1 and 3 hours after the administration of the test suspension, and 4 of 6 dogs were lethargic. All dogs drank frequently after AC administration. Commercial AC suspension administered at a clinically relevant dose /significantly increased/ serum osmolality, osmolal gap, and lactate concentration in dogs. These laboratory measures, ...clinical signs ... and increased frequency of drinking might complicate the diagnosis or monitoring of some intoxications (such as ethylene glycol) in dogs that have previously received AC suspension containing propylene glycol, glycerol, or both as vehicles.

Although activated charcoal is widely used for the treatment of self-poisoning, its effectiveness is unknown. An important consideration is patient compliance since poor compliance will limit effectiveness. ... 1,103 patients randomized to single or multiple (six doses q4h) 50 g doses of superactivated charcoal were prospectively observed. Charcoal was given by study doctors who recorded the amount ingested and the amount of persuasion required for the patients to drink the charcoal. ... 559 patients were randomized to receive one dose and 544 to receive six doses. Data was available for 1,071 (97%) patients. Eighty-eight were unable to complete their course; 98 required a NG tube, leaving 885 patients that received the first dose by mouth. The mean estimated amount of the prescribed dose of charcoal taken orally as a single or first dose was 83% (95% C.I. 82-84%). For patients receiving multiple doses, this amount fell over the next five doses to 66% (63-69%). While only 3.2% of patients refused the first dose, 12.3% refused the sixth. Relatively less persuasion was required for patients ingesting the first or single dose; 38% of patients required intense persuasion by the sixth dose.

... The incidence of aspiration pneumonia in intubated overdose patients who then received activated charcoal (AC) /was estimated by /... a retrospective review from January 1994 to April 1997 of intubated patients who then received AC. Patients were transferred to, or primarily treated at, an 843-bed tertiary medical center with an annual emergency department volume of 100,000 patients. Objective evidence of infiltrate on chest radiograph during initial 48 hr of hospitalization was used to determine the incidence of aspiration pneumonia. Patients with known preexisting pneumonia or with administration of AC before intubation were excluded. There were 64 patients identified. Fourteen were excluded for clinical aspiration before intubation, receiving activated charcoal before intubation, or abnormal immediate post-intubation chest radiographs. The remaining 50 patients, ages 1-64 years, 33% male, overdosing on a large variety of substances, required acute intubation and then received AC. Only two patients of these 50 (4%) with initial negative radiographs developed a new infiltrate after intubation and AC. Administration of AC to intubated overdose patients is associated with a low incidence of aspiration pneumonia.

Mice (for their lifespan), guinea pigs, and monkeys (up to 13,000 total hr) were exposed to 1.6 mg/cu m of various types of furnace blacks for 7 hr/day, 5 days/wk. ... Carbon black was found scattered in lung tissue, both free-lying and inside macrophages (scavenger cells). In mice, the black was diffuse and finely distributed, while monkeys progressively developed diffusely distributed areas of nodularity where the black was concentrated. ... Carbon black was observed to infiltrate the pulmonary lymph nodes, and was also present in the liver, spleen, and kidneys of exposed animals.

The effect of continuous exposure to inert carbonaceous particles on the pulmonary clearance of inhaled diesel tracer particles was studied in male Fischer 344 rats. Submicron carbon black particles with a mass median aerodynamic diameter of 0.22 um and having a size distribution similar to those particles from a GM 5.7 liter diesel engine were successfully generated and admin to test animals at a nominal concn of 6 mg/cu m for 20 hr/day, 7 day/wk, for periods lasting 1 to 11 wk. Immediately after the carbon black exposure, test animals were admin (14)C tagged diesel particles for 45 min in a nose only chamber. The pulmonary retention of inhaled radioactive tracer particles was determined at preselected time intervals. Based upon the data collected up to six months post exposure, prolonged exposure to carbon black particles exhibits the same inhibitory effect on pulmonary clearance as prolonged exposure to diesel exhaust with a comparable particulate dose. This observation, coupled with the observation that continuous exposure to nitrogen oxide at 2 ppm produced no significant incr on the pulmonary retention of radioactive diesel test particles, indicates that the accumulation of inert carbonaceous material is the predominant cause of impaired lung clearance.

EXPTL INTRAVENOUS INJECTION OF PURE CARBON SUSPENSIONS IN RABBITS PRODUCES NO OCULAR INFLAMMATION, ALTHOUGH CARBON PARTICLES ARE DEPOSITED WITHIN THE BLOOD VESSELS.

Individualized, chemically pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes have been intravenously administered to rabbits and monitored through their characteristic near-infrared fluorescence. Spectra indicated that blood proteins displaced the nanotube coating of synthetic surfactant molecules within seconds. The nanotube concentration in the blood serum decreased exponentially with a half-life of 1.0 +/- 0.1 hr. No adverse effects from low-level nanotube exposure could be detected from behavior or pathological examination. At 24 hr after iv administration, significant concentrations of nanotubes were found only in the liver. These results demonstrate that debundled single-walled carbon nanotubes are high-contrast near-infrared fluorophores that can be sensitively and selectively tracked in mammalian tissues using optical methods. In addition, the absence of acute toxicity and promising circulation persistence suggest the potential of carbon nanotubes in future pharmaceutical applications. /Single-walled carbon nanotubes/

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) exhibit unique size, shape and physical properties that make them promising candidates for biological applications. Here, ... the biodistribution of radio-labelled SWNTs in mice /is investigated/ by in vivo positron emission tomography (PET), ex vivo biodistribution and Raman spectroscopy. It is found that SWNTs that are functionalized with phospholipids bearing polyethylene-glycol (PEG) are surprisingly stable in vivo. The effect of PEG chain length on the biodistribution and circulation of the SWNTs is studied. Effectively PEGylated SWNTs exhibit relatively long blood circulation times and low uptake by the reticuloendothelial system (RES). Efficient targeting of integrin positive tumor in mice is achieved with SWNTs coated with PEG chains linked to an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) peptide. A high tumor accumulation is attributed to the multivalent effect of the SWNTs... /Functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes/

Carbon nanotubes are promising new materials for molecular delivery in biological systems. The long-term fate of nanotubes intravenously injected into animals in vivo is currently unknown, an issue critical to potential clinical applications of these materials. Here, using the intrinsic Raman spectroscopic signatures of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), ... the blood circulation of intravenously injected SWNTs and detect SWNTs /was measured/ in various organs and tissues of mice ex vivo over a period of three months. Functionalization of SWNTs by branched polyethylene-glycol (PEG) chains was developed, enabling thus far the longest SWNT blood circulation up to 1 day, relatively low uptake in the reticuloendothelial system (RES), and near-complete clearance from the main organs in approximately 2 months. Raman spectroscopy detected SWNT in the intestine, feces, kidney, and bladder of mice, suggesting excretion and clearance of SWNTs from mice via the biliary and renal pathways. No toxic side effect of SWNTs to mice was observed in necropsy, histology, and blood chemistry measurements. ... /Functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes/

Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) have a small size and unique physicalchemical properties which suggest that novel particles may translocate to systemic organs after deposition in the lungs. In this study, gold particles (10 nm) were used to label a highly dispersed preparation of SWCNT with a mean geometric diameter of 1.1 microns. The gold labeled SWCNT were delivered to the lungs by pharyngeal aspiration to C57BL/6 mice. Neutron activation analysis (NAA) of lung, blood and other organs was carried out at various times after aspiration to determine if the gold labeled SWCNT translocated out of the lungs. Six mice per group were studied at 1 hour, 1 day and 3 days after exposure to a single dose of 50 ug of gold labeled SWCNT. A separate group was given gold particles without SWCNT. A phosphate buffered saline (PBS) aspiration group served as the negative control. At sacrifice the lungs, heart, brain, liver, kidneys and a blood sample were taken for analysis of gold content by NAA. Gold content of the PBS aspiration group was negligible. In the gold labeled SWCNT group lung gold content at 1 day was 65 percent of that at 1 hour and not significantly different from the content at 3 days. The heart, brain, liver, kidney and blood samples from the gold labeled SWCNT groups contained less than 1 part in 200 of the total dose and were not statistically different from the PBS aspiration group at 1 hour, 1 day and 3 days. The results indicate that SWCNT do not readily translocate from the lungs. /Single-walled carbon nanotubes/

5.4 Mechanism of Action

Macrophages were treated with carbon black and carbon black adsorbate complexes to determine whether the presence, identity and coverage of the adsorbate altered the phagocytic ingestion of the carbon black particles. This study was performed to determine the effect of such treatment on the capacity of the macrophages to phagocytize a secondary particle challenge via its Fc membrane receptor. Rat alveolar macrophages were incubated in vitro with two carbon blacks that had 15 fold differences in specific surface areas (ASTM-N339 less than Black-Pearls-2000) sorbed with 0.5 and 1.0 monolayer coverages of a polar and semi polar adsorbate; acrolein and benzofuran. One half monolayer coverages of N339 with either adsorbate significantly suppressed the phagocytosis of the carbon black, whereas one monolayer coverage did not. Neither adsorbate at either coverages affected the phagocytosis of Black-Pearls-2000. It was concluded that these results indicate that the surface properties of the particles, the chemical properties of chemical pollutants, and the interactions between particles and pollutants can play a major role in defining the biological effects of particles that are carried to the distal lung.

The desorption of adsorbed molecules from amorphous carbon black was investigated. Five oil furnace carbon blacks consisting of pelletized agglomerates of 0.20 to 0.24 nanometer aciniform particles and 13 adsorbates were used. The adsorbates consisted of organic compounds containing functional groups characteristic of organic molecules formed on particles generated by combustion of organic material. The carbon blacks were incorporated into liquid chromatographic columns. n-Hexane, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, methanol, and water were used as mobile phases. Ten microliter sample aliquots were injected into the chromatographs. The data showed that the adsorbates displaced the mobile phase molecules from the surface. The extent of desorption increased with increasing solubility of the adsorbate in the mobile phase. Desorption also depended on the heat of desorption. With the exception of basic adsorbates adsorbed on the least polar carbon black, N765, most of the compounds were adsorbed irreversibly when the mobile phase was water. The adsorption isotherms showed that desorption depended on the extent of surface coverage and increased as the extent of coverage approached one monolayer. It was concluded that adsorbed molecules are desorbed from particulate surfaces to different extents, the amount desorbed depending on the polarity of the physiological fluid that interacts with the surface. Desorption also depends on the extent of adsorbent surface covered.

Exposure to ambient ultrafine particles induces airway inflammatory reactions and tissue remodeling. In this experiment, to determine whether ultrafine carbon black (ufCB) affects proliferation of airway epithelium and, if so, what the mechanism of action is, ... human primary bronchial epithelial cell cultures /were studied/. Incubation of cells in the serum-free medium with ufCB increased incorporations of [(3)H]thymidine and [(3)H]leucine into cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. This effect was attenuated by Cu- and Zn-containing superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) and apocynin, an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, and completely inhibited by pretreatment with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) tyrosine kinase inhibitors AG-1478 and BIBX-1382, and the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitor PD-98059. Transfection of a dominant-negative mutant of H-Ras likewise abolished the effect ufCB. Stimulation with ufCB also induced processing of membrane-anchored proheparin-binding (HB)-EGF, release of soluble HB-EGF into the medium, association of phosphorylated EGF-R and Shc with glutathione-S-transferase-Grb2 fusion protein, and phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). Pretreatment with AG-1478, [Glu(52)]Diphtheria toxin, a specific inhibitor of HB-EGF, neutralizing HB-EGF antibody, Cu/Zn SOD, and apocynin each inhibited ufCB-induced ERK activation. These results suggest that ufCB causes oxidative stress-mediated proliferation of airway epithelium, involving processing of HB-EGF and the concomitant activation of EGF-R and ERK cascade.

... Ultrafine carbon black (ufCB) does not have its effects via transition metal-mediated mechanisms. However, ufCB and other ultrafines generate free radicals at their surface as measured by a number of chemical assays and are able to cause oxidative stress to cells and this is likely to be a factor in their ability to cause inflammation. Changes in calcium resulting from oxidative stress within cells may be an additional factor leading to transcription of pro-inflammatory genes...

Activated charcoal avidly adsorbs drugs and chemicals on the surfaces of the charcoal particles, thereby preventing absorption and toxicity. ... The effectiveness of charcoal is dependent on the time since the ingestion and on the dose of charcoal; one should attempt to achieve a charcoal:drug ratio of at least 10:1.
