| Hi! Searching for an easy way to do some calculations of concentration of calcium in physiological solution (ACSF) i found the CHELATOR-Program by Schoenmakers. It seems to work fine but unfortunately i' dont manage to add buffers to the internal list. The solution I'm working with is based on a dual buffering system. (1) a carbonate buffer (by adding NaHCO3) (2) a phosphate buffer (by adding NaH2PO4) When I try to add these buffers to the programms list, i am asked to enter the "delta pka (25??C)" values. I must confess, i have no idea what a "delta pka" is. Is there anybody who might help me out? (a) what is the "delta pka" ? And what tells me this data? (b) what is the correct delta pka for HCO3 resp. H2PO4 (or where can i find these values)? My second problem deals with something similar. Since my solution also contains GTP, i think i'll have to consider it in a calculation of free calcium. When i do so i'm finally ending up to a point where a menu opens and i have to select between 12 possible binding kinetics and enter its rate constants. At this pont i choose the first equation and select Ca as binding metal. But i have no idea what to enter for the following specifications. I'd be very grateful if there is someone out there who might help me out with this. Regards Thomas |
