Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic considerations in co-ordination. Part XX. A computerised approach as an alternative to graphical normalised curve fitting as a means of detecting oligonuclear complexes in metal ion–ligand solutions and its application to the zinc(II)–, lead (II)–, and proton–glycine peptide systems
TL;DR: In this article, a computer program, PSEUDOPLOT, is described as an alternative to the normalised-curves approach for selecting a set of formation constants necessary to define a system of competing equilibria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic considerations in co-ordination. Part XXIII. Formation constants for complexes of protons, zinc(II), and acid anions and their use in computer evaluation of a better zinc therapeutical
TL;DR: In this article, the formation constants for adding protons and zinc ions to the ligands are reported and computer models of solution equilibria have been used to suggest the best ligands and concentrations for improved zinc therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic considerations in co-ordination. Part XXV. Formation of ternary complexes containing two dissimilar metal ions and the implication for metal–metal stimulation phenomena in viva
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation constants of zinc ion binary complexes at various pH values were computed and the principles of metal-metal stimulation phenomena in viva were discussed, where both calcium and lanthanum ions encourage the formation of neutral membrane-permeable complexes of zinc ions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic considerations in co-ordination. Part XIV. Formation constants for lead(II)–amino-acid complexes and their use in computing the complexing competition between lead(II) and in vivo essential metal ions, and in computer evaluation of ligands currently employed as lead(II) chelating therapeuticals
TL;DR: It was found that more specific drugs may be synthesized as peptides derived from L-cysteine, histidine, and aspartic acid as well as in vivo essential amino-acids listed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal-ligand complexes involved in rheumatoid arthritis—III: Bovine serum albumin -copper(II), -zinc(II) and -lead(II) interactions investigated using potentiometric analysis and molecular filtration
TL;DR: In this article, the interactions between BSA and Cu 2+, Zn 2+ and Pb 2+ have been studied in aqueous solution (37°, I = 150 mmol dm −3 ) using potentiometric analysis and molecular filtration.
