Hl. Wang et al., QUANTITATIVE STUDY OF COMPETITIVE-BINDING OF DRUGS TO PROTEIN BY MICRODIALYSIS HIGH-PERFORMANCE LIQUID-CHROMATOGRAPHY, Analytical chemistry, 70(2), 1998, pp. 373-377
A displacement equation describing competitive binding of drugs to pro
tein in solution is derived and examined with four nonsteroidal anti-i
nflammatory drugs and human serum albumin as model drugs and protein,
respectively. Microdialysis/high-performance liquid chromatography was
adopted to determine simultaneously the unbound solute and displacing
agent in drug-protein solutions. The method is able to locate the bin
ding site and determine affinity constants even up to 10(7) L/mol accu
rately. A comparison of association constants determined by this metho
d and from capacity factors on HSA-CSP is given.
