Gelatin derivatives in blood: interference with the determination of inorganic phosphate in serum. 1979

P Bijster, and H L Vader, and C L Vink

The method of Goldenberg and Fernandez (1966) Clin. Chem. 12, 871--882) for the determination of inorganic phosphate in serum is significantly influenced by turbidity after intravenous application of gelatin derivatives, even at low quantities. This turbidity can be eliminated by the addition of sodium dodecyl sulphate to the reaction solution.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009391	Nephelometry and Turbidimetry	Chemical analysis based on the phenomenon whereby light, passing through a medium with dispersed particles of a different refractive index from that of the medium, is attenuated in intensity by scattering. In turbidimetry, the intensity of light transmitted through the medium, the unscattered light, is measured. In nephelometry, the intensity of the scattered light is measured, usually, but not necessarily, at right angles to the incident light beam.	Turbidimetry,Nephelometry,Turbidimetry and Nephelometry
