Quantitative experiments to study the binding of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and salicylic acid (SA) by human serum albumin (HSA) were carried out using ‘4C-labeled ASA or SA and gel filtration to separate the free from the bound forms. Two binding procedures were employed: the ASA or SA was incubated with the HSA, or the mixture was placed in an equilibrium dialysis cell. By withdrawing samples...
