Abstract
Interaction of nalidixic acid with Al ion was revealed by spectrophotometric study. Stoichiometry of the nalidixic acid-Al ion complex was estimated to be 3-1 by the method of continuous variations. The interaction was further supported by an increase in solubility of the drug with increasing concentration of Al ion, by a decrease in (carbon tetrachloride/acetate buffer, pH 3.3) partition coefficient with increasing concentration of Al ion in the aqueous layer and by a decrease in the permeation rate of the drug through a cellulose membrane in the presence of Al ion in the donor compartment. Interaction of nalidixate anion with Mg and Ca ions was also shown spectrophotometrically.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
