Study of albumin conductivity in water and its reactions with transition metal ions

Abstract

AbstractThe present work provide the measurement of the conductivity of bovineserum albumin in water at three different pH values (4,7 and 8.2) and at 37oC. ThepH value which was chosen for this study is 7 which give almost straight line fromthe plot of specific conductivity against its concentration and because it is near the pHof blood serum.. Besides , the conductivities of albumin with each of solutions ofsome transition metal chlorides (MnCl2 ,FeCl2 ,CoCl2 , NiCl2 and CuCl2 ) atpH=7 were measured .The plot of specific onductivity against each mixture solutionwere discussed.
