Determination of ionization constants by paper electrophoresis.

Abstract

Dimensionless apparent ionization constants of charged low-molecular-weight species may be obtained from paper-electrophoretic data at 20-25 degrees C with buffers (I0.1-0.5) of measured pH (1.5-12.5) containing oxalate ions. Relative mobilities rather than absolute mobilities were measured by using glycerol and m-nitrobenzenesulphonate respectively as standards of zero and unit mobility. Application of the procedure to ionizations of adenine, adenosine, 2'-deoxyadenosine, 3'-deoxyadenosine, 3':5'-cyclic AMP, ADP, ADP-glucose-agrocin 84 and ATP is described.
