The interaction of bovine serum albumin ( BSA) and egg albumin with water solublephthalocyanine, cobalt (ΙΙ) 4, 4′ , 4′′, 4′′′- tetrasulfophthalocyanine ( CoTSPc) , has been studiedby the UV- Vis method at pH 7.0 and five different temperatures 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40°C. Theformation constants have been elucidated by using spectrophotometric titration and computerSQUAD program data refinement. Th...

introduction: kidney disease is a major public health challenge worldwide. epidemiologic data suggest a significant relationship between underlying diseases and decrease in glomerular filtration rate (gfr). clinical studies and laboratory research have shown that the mentioned parameter is effective in development and progression of the renal disease per se. in this study, we used learning-base...

curcumin is a natural polyphenolic compound with anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidation properties. low water solubility and rapid hydrolytic degradation are two challenges limiting use of curcumin as therapeutic agent. in the current study, the role of the bovine serum albumin (bsa), β-lactoglobulin and casein, as food-grade biopolymers and safe drug delivery systems, on the physic...

the goal of this study was to evaluate the pattern and the suitability of the human albumin usage according to the available and reliable guidelines. a concurrent, cross-sectional study was performed in shariati hospital (associated with tehran university of medical sciences, tehran, iran). all inpatient adults that were prescribed albumin during the study period were evaluated to register the ...

Long chain fatty acids are an important metabolic fuel for renal proximal tubules. Because of their insolubility, they are carried in the blood primarily bound to albumin. Processes involved in the cellular uptake of albumin-bound ligands are incompletely understood. To determine how fatty acids enter renal tubular cells when substrate was presented primarily bound to albumin (molar ratio album...
