Partial specific volume of hyaluronic acid in different media and conditions

Int J Biol Macromol. 2000 Jul 12;27(4):287-90. doi: 10.1016/s0141-8130(00)00130-6.

Abstract

Density measurements of hyaluronic acid in different media and conditions have been made in order to determine the partial specific volumes, v0(2). We have studied the effects of temperature, type of cation, cation concentration, pH and solvent polarity on v0(2).
