Clinoptilolite was micronized to generate powdered preparations GHC1 and GHC2 as outlined under Materials and Methods. The size of the particles was determined by Mie scattering in a Malvern Mastersizer 2000; d10, d50, and d90 define the diameter under which 10%, 50%, and 90%, respectively, of the volume fraction are found. Diameter is given as median size ± standard deviation (n = 3). The 2 preparations of microparticulate clinoptilolite GHC2 used in the acute and chronic DSS model were characterized independently to verify that they were comparable.
