Sorption experiments of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on hydroxyapatite (HAp) ceramic granules, prepared at three temperatures 900°C, 1000°C and 1150°C were performed at room temperature 18,6 °C and phosphate buffer, pH 5,83; 6.38 and 7,39. Thermal treatment contributed to the decrease of bovine serum albumin immobilization indicating that sorption process depended on HAp ceramics specific surface area and pH values of phosphate buffer solution. However, it was confirmed that granule size was also an important parameter for bovine serum albumin adsorption. As a result of these experiments, the most appropriate adsorption conditions and phosphate buffer pH values influence on to BSA sorption were analyzed.

Calcium phosphate/polyacrylate/alginate hybrid polymer microspheres with bovine serum albumin (BSA) embedded and coated on the surface were prepared with (NH4)2HPO4, sodium polyacrylate (SPA) and sodium alginate (SA) via Ca2+ crosslinking in inverse suspension. Rebinding behaviors of the microspheres were evaluated. The factors influencing the imprinting efficiency (IE) of imprinted microspheres were also studied, including the concentration of CaCl2, template content and pH values in rebinding solutions. Selectivity tests showed that the imprinted microspheres exhibited good recognition property for the template protein.

A number of multimodal agents have been developed for tumour imaging and diagnosis, but most of them cannot be used to study the detailed physiological or pathological changes in living cells at the same time.

Hearts from 15 painted turtles ( Chrysemys picta) were perfused for 30 minutes at 23°–26°C with a buffered salt solution. The pH of the perfusing solution was varied between 6.5 and 9.5. The intracellular pH values of the ventricles were calculated from the distribution of the weak acid, 5.5-dimethyl-2,4-oxazolidinedione (DMO). It was found that the extracellular pH (pH e) and the intracellular pH (pH i) under these conditions could be related by the equation: pH i = 0.617 pH e + 2.98.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of in vivo 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) for monitoring changes in growth-related phosphate metabolite concentration and intracellular pH value in rabbit thigh muscle implanted with VX-2 carcinoma. The time-course magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and in vivo 31P MRS were examined weekly in the course of 10 weeks following the onset of a VX-2 carcinoma implantation. The spectra were quantitatively analyzed to obtain vital information on the time course variation of the phosphorus metabolites and intracellular pH value according to the tumor growth. Elevation in the concentrations of phosphormonoesters (PME), inorganic phosphate (Pi), and phosphodiesters (PDE) was observed over the time course of 3-4 weeks after the implantation of VX2 carcinoma, while the rest of the metabolites, PCr and ATP tended to be constant. The concentration changes of PME, Pi, and PDE were positively correlated with the volumes of tumor necrosis. The intracellular pH values decreased with the time course of tumor growth and the volumes of tumor necrosis. In vivo 31P MRS is capable of non-invasive monitoring of intracellular pH values as well as the concentration changes of phosphate metabolites during tumor growth.
