Reactions of Al3+ (50-500 mumol l-1) with intact blood plasma and its low relative molecular mass ultrafiltrate (< 5 kDa) have been studied by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Binding to citrate was detected and was reversed by addition of desferrioxamine. The use of combined exponential and sine-bell functions for the resolution enhancement of spectra of plasma is illustrated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
