The purpose of this review is to introduce several computational procedures for the determination of acid-dissociation constants (pKa) of titratable groups in proteins. Several concepts, such as continuum electrostatics and the exact meaning of intrinsic and apparent pKas, will be explained in some detail. Each of the methods will be judged on its merits, and some comparisons between the methods will be presented. While the emphasis of this review will be on theoretical formulations, the experimental determination by means of nuclear magnetic resonance will be briefly explained. The determination of individual pKa values by nuclear magnetic resonance in combination with computationally determined pKas can provide unique information about the pH-dependent properties of proteins and their complexes with peptides, DNA, and ligands.Key words: acid-dissociation constants, NMR, continuum electrostatics, dielectric constant of proteins, Monte Carlo, molecular dynamics.

Abstract The fluorometric procedure for chlortetracycline in mixed feeds is based upon the degradation of chlortetracycline in alkaline solution to isochlortetracycline. The fluorescence of the isochlortetracycline is directly proportional to the concentration of chlortetracycline present prior to alkaline degradation. Chlortetracycline is extracted from mixed feeds with an acidmethanol solvent system, separated from the feed extract by adsorption on a Dowex 50 ion exchange resin, and eluted from the resin by ammonium hydroxide after conversion to isochlortetracycline. The isochlortetracycline is measured fluorometrically. Recoveries from known feeds are generally greater than 90% and agreements with microbiological assays are very close.
