Investigation on interaction of azo dyes with bovine serum albumin as carrier protein will be important in the field of toxicology because of distribution and transportation of dyes in blood. In this regard, the interaction between the azo dye, trisodium (4E)-3-oxo-4-[(4- sulfonato-1- naphthyl) hydrazono] naphthalene-2,7-disulfonate (C20H11N2Na3O10S3), known as Amaranth and bovine serum albumin...

This paper offers a critique of manufacturing performance measurement approaches investigated by previous studies particularly in trade-off modelling studies for manufacturing capabilities. We argue that some studies complete validity analyses of the trade-off model using measures of manufacturing performance that are inconsistent with the trade-off theoretical concept. The paper also seeks to ...

background: progress in the field of biology and biochemistry has led to the discovery of numerous bioactive peptides and proteins in the last few decades. delivery of therapeutic proteins/peptides has received a considerable amount of attention in recent years. methods: in this study, a two-step desolvation method was used to produce biodegradable hydrophilic gelatin nanoparticles (gnp) as a d...

It was found previously that the sieving coefficients of Ficoll and Ficoll sulfate across isolated glomerular basement membrane (GBM) were greatly elevated when BSA was present at physiological levels, and it was suggested that most of this increase might have been the result of steric interactions between BSA and the tracers (5). To test this hypothesis, we extended the theory for the sieving ...

Effect of bovine serum albumin (BSA} on the absorption of sulfonamides was studied employing in situ recirculating perfusion method in the rat. The absorption rate constant of sulfamethoxazole was greatly decreased by addition of BSA to the perfusion solution. But, the decreasing effect of BSA on the absorption rate was diminished after removing BSA from perfusion solution. The decreasing effec...

Studies were undertaken to determine whether BSA, once immobilized on activated nylon microspheres, would be capable of specifically removing circulating BSA antibody in vitro and in vivo in an extracorporeal circulation system in dogs. Nylon microspheres were prepared and, after gentle hydrolysis and glutaraldehyde treatment, demonstrated a retention of up to 34.5 mg of BSA. In vitro studies s...
