Figure 1

Effect of mucins on zinc availability for 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR). Effect of mucins on zinc availability for PAR is shown as free zinc relative to the initially added zinc concentration. Different concentrations of zinc-depleted porcine mucin were incubated with 8 μM zinc and free zinc was analyzed using the colorimetric zinc chelator PAR. Data are presented as means + standard deviation (SD) of at least three independent experiments. Significant differences to the control are indicated (*** p < 0.001; one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Dunnett’s multiple comparison test).
