The bromocresol purple methods for the determination of serum albumin on the Technicon SMAC and the DuPont ACA systems were evaluated and compared with the corresponding bromocresol green methods, a radial immunodiffusion (RID) and an electrophoresis technique. The linearity and precision of the dye binding methods were comparable. The bromocresol purple methods were more influenced by lipaemia...

The determination of serum albumin with the dye reagent bromocresol purple was investigated. We found that bromocresol purple is not a specific reagent for albumin, but that serum proteins in the alpha-, beta-, and gamma-globulin fractions also react with this dye. Similar results were obtained for bromocresol green. Furthermore there is a great difference in absorbance between human and bovine...

in this study a sensitive, simple and accurate spectrophotometric method was suggested for determination of tamsulosin in bulk powder and pharmaceutical dosage form based on the formation of an ion-pair complex between the drug and bromocresol green in a buffer solution at ph 3.5. the formed yellow color complex was extracted with chloroform and measured at 415 nm. the optimum reaction conditio...

cells, proteins, and small molecules from the alveolar space of the lower respiratory tract since the first report of Reynolds and Newball over three decades ago. The analysis of these components is of wide diagnostic and investigative value. In bronchoalveolar lavage, sterile saline is administered into the bronchoalveolar space and aspirated by syringe. Because recovery of the components in b...

in the present study, a simple and sensitive extractive spectrophotometric method is described for determination of buspirone. the method is based on the reaction of buspirone and bromocresol green. the ion-pair complex was quantitatively extracted into chloroform at ph 2.3 followed by spectrophotometric determination at 415 nm. the complex was stable up to 2 days and obeyed beer's law over the...

a simple and sensitive extractive spectrophotometric method is described for determination of tropicamide. the method is based on the reaction of tropicamide and bromocresol green. the ion-paired colored complex was extracted with chloroform at ph 3. the extracted complex showed maximum absorbance at 423 nm. the complex was stable up to 2 days and obeyed beer's law over the concentration r...

This paper, the second in a series concerning the use of indicator dyes to study the reactions of organic acids and bases in organic solvents, deals with halogen derivatives of phenolsulfonephthalein. Spectrophotometric data are given for mixtures of bromocresol green, bromophenol blue, iodophenol blue, and tetrabromophenol blue with primary, secondary, and tertiary aliphatic amines in benzene;...
