(a) Electrophoregram of bilirubin-10-sulfonate (ranarubin) and biliverdin-10-sulfonate (ranaverdin) mixture. Electrophoresis performed in background electrolyte 4 (see Table 1a). Bilirubin-10-sulfonate concentration = 0.1 g/L. eof electroosmotic flow rate marker. (b) Stability of bilirubin-10-sulfonate. Measured in background electrolyte 5 (see Table 1a). Bilirubin-10-sulfonate concentration = 0.1 g/L. (c) Dependence of effective electrophoretic mobility of bilirubin-10-sulfonate on sample concentration. Background electrolyte 12 (see Table 1a). Sample: bilirubin-10-sulfonate 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005 g/L in deionized water (5% DMSO). (d) Dependence of effective electrophoretic mobility and pKa value of bilirubin-10-sulfonate on the content of DMSO. Background electrolyte 4 (see Table 1a).
