Possible Interaction: Albumin and Octanoic Acid

“Our results showed that using the CA protocol leads to improvement in the product quality, as assessed by the albumin and protein content decrease (from 4.75 to 3.54 g/dL and 0.64 to 0.18 g/dL, respectively), which yielded a purer antitoxin product.”

“ Caprylic acid binds to the fatty acid binding site of albumin , preventing it from binding to the resin which thus retains a high capacity for binding factor B. Factor B together with the homologous protein beta 2I are eluted from the column by a linear gradient of KCl.”

“In contrast to linoleic acid, octanoic acid did not alter binding at primary sites but lowered total binding capacity when its concentration exceeded 2.5 times that of the Alb in the sample.”

“ Caprylic acid facilitated the precipitation of albumin , resulting in a reduced protein load presented to the digestion enzymes, culminating in substantial reductions in processing time.”

“The effect of octanoic acid and arachidonic acid on ChAT activity appeared to increase in the presence of albumin.”

“Although albumin also undergoes paracellular transport in the presence of EGTA and OA binds strongly to albumin , OA transport in EGTA solution was unchanged by albumin.”
