Assessment of sapropel use for pharmaceutical products according to legislation, pollution parameters, and concentration of biologically active substances

Abstract Development trends need the necessity for wider use of the local resources and available natural materials are one of the priorities around the world. Freshwater sapropel is a common material in the water basement of the lakes, but still not sufficiently explored. The main goal of the proje...
