The Effect of Salts on the Ionisation of Gelatin

نویسنده

  • Kenneth V. Thimann
چکیده

The effect of the addition of sodium chloride to gelatin solutions is shown from the Donnan relationship to increase the ionisation of the gelatin, the increase produced in acid solutions reaching a maximum at about 1/1000 molar salt concentration. This effect is attributed to the formation of complex ions. From the similar action of calcium and copper chlorides the effective combining power of gelatin for complex positive ion formation is deduced. The bearing of complex ion formation on the zwitter-ionic structure and solubility phenomena of proteins is pointed out.

The Influence of Neutral Salts, Bases, and Acids on the Precipitability of Gelatin by Alcohol

It has been shown in the previous publications’ that the eriect of neutral salts on gelatin is repressed in the presence of the salt and that we can study such effects with any profit only when the excess of salt is washed away after it has had a chance to act on the protein. Such gelatin reveals qualities which are masked in the presence of the salt and which allow us to gain a clear insight i...

Effect of Some Synthetic Parameters on Size and Polydispersity Index of Gelatin Nanoparticles Cross-Linked by CDI/NHS System

In our previous work, the effect of use of a water soluble CDI/NHS system as nontoxic cross-linking agent on fabrication of gelatin nanoparticles was investigated. In this research, the effect of variation in some synthetic parameters of gelatin nanoparticles cross-linked by CDI/NHS system such as type of gelatin and formulation of cross- linking agent on their size and distribution was examine...

Evaluation of Biopolymers Effect on In vitro Biocompatibility Property of Nano Hydroxyl Apatite Composites

In this work, we report the effect of biopolymers (starch and gelatin) on in vitro biocompatibility property of nano hydroxyapatite (nHAp) composites. Cell culture and MTT assays were performed for in vitro biocompatibility. They show that nHAp can affect the proliferation of cells and the nHAp-starch and nHAP-gelatin biocomposites have no negative effect on the cell morphology, viability and p...

Effect of Different Factors on the Quantity of Gelatin and Oil Extracted from Tuna Fish

Gelatin and oil from three species of tuna fish, Thunnus albacares (yellow-fin tuna), Thunnus tonggol (long-tail tuna), and Katsuwonus pelamis (skipjack tuna) were extracted to study the factors affecting yield. Factors studied included organ (fin or skin), catch location (Chah bahar, Bushehr, Bandar-e abbas), season (summer or winter) and species (the three species). To extract gelatin and oil...
