Equation for osmotic pressure of serum protein (fractions).

چکیده

The colloid or protein osmotic pressure (Pi) is a function of protein molarity (linear) and of Donnan and other effects. Albumin is the major osmotic protein, but also globulins influence Pi. Equations based on concentrations of albumin and nonalbumin (globulin concentration + fibrinogen concentration) protein approximate Pi better than albumin alone. Globulins have a wide range of molecular weights, and a 1956 diagram indicated that Pi of globulin fractions decreased in the order alpha1-, alpha2-, beta-, and gamma-globulin. The molecular weight of the serum protein fractions had been extrapolated, so van't Hoff's law and nonlinear regression analysis of the curves permitted expression of the diagram as an equation: product Pi(s,Ott,2 degrees C,cmH2O)=x(alb)(0.338C(tot)+0.00339C(tot)(2))+x(alpha1)(0.518C(tot)+0.0107C(tot)(2))+x(alpha2)(0.203C(tot)+0.00155C(tot)(2))+x(beta)(0.187C(tot)+0.000577C(tot)(2))+x(gamma)(0.161C(tot)+0.000223C(tot)(2)), where Pi(s,Ott,2 degrees C,cmH2O) is Pi of serum at 2 degrees C (in cmH2O) computed from the 1956 diagram, C(tot) is the concentration (g/l) of total protein in serum, and x(alb), x(alpha1), x(alpha2), x(beta), and x(gamma) are the fractions of albumin, alpha1-, alpha2-, beta-, and gamma-globulin, respectively. At one and the same concentration of fractions, Pi("Ott") decreases in the order alpha1-globulin, albumin, alpha2-globulin, beta-globulin, and gamma-globulin.

Blood serum osmotic and ionic regulation of wild adults and reared juvenile Persian sturgeon, Acipenser persicus

The osmoregulatory system was studied in wild adult and reared juvenile Persian sturgeon, Acipenser persicus. The mean osmolarity in blood serum of specimens from the Caspian Sea, estuary, the Kouraneski pools and the rearing tanks were 305.3±14.3, 308.7±25.8, 265.0±19.1 and 259.3±8.8 mosmol/L, respectively; the mean concentrations of Na+ were 151.2±6.3, 152.2±8.4, 142.5±5.9 and 131.4±4.1 meq/L...

CALCULATION OF OSMOTIC PRESSURE USING A CLOSED SYSTEM MODEL

In this work we have used a closed system model to derive an analytical equation for the osmotic pressure of two component electrolyte and non-electrolyte solutions. In order to do so, we have used an equation of state, known as the dense system equation of state (DSEOS), for the model system. Based on the model, a new definition is given for the osmotic pressure of a closed system. Good ag...

Osmotic Pressure Study of Protein Fractions in Normal and in Nephrotic Subjects

In serum of patients with nephrosis both albumin and globulin showed by osmotic pressure nearly double the molecular weights of normal albumin and globulin. In the urines of such patients, on the other hand, both proteins showed molecular weights lower even than in normal serum. The colloidal osmotic pressures were measured by the author's method at such dilutions that the van't Hoff law relati...

AGAINST THE VALIDITY OF THE CLOSED SYSTEM MODEL FOR CALCULATING OSMOTIC PRESSURE

This paper criticizes the model and the new definition for osmotic pressure given by Parsafar et al. [J. Sci. I. R. Iran, Vol. 10, No. 4, 233 (1999)]. The model is a closed system containing 1 kg of solvent plus m mole of solute at constant temperature and under pressure P0 + ? where P0 is the standard pressure and ? is the osmotic pressure of the corresponding m molal solution. While the total...
