These pints are divided into two cups (though the imperial cup is rarely used now), which in turn are divided into two gills (gills are also rarely used). Thus a gallon is equal to four quarts, eight pints, sixteen cups or thirty-two gills.
Binding constant. Home Â» Binding constant. Definition. noun. A mathematical constant that describes the bonding affinity between two molecules at equilibrium. Supplement. It is the measure of the affinity of an enzyme for its substrate. An example is the measure of the strength of binding in the hapten-antibody interaction.
The protein binding of furosemide was investigated in plasma from 22 old and 11 young subjects by equilibrium dialysis.The unbound fraction of furosemide was 3.16% in plasma from the elderly and 1.71% in plasma from the young.A significant correlation was found between the unbound fraction of furosemide and the plasma concentration of albumin. The average number of binding sites was 3.8 (elderly) and 2.7 (young) 10 â6 mol/g albumin.The average association constant (K) was 4.3 (elderly) and 4.2 (young) 10 5 M â1. significant correlation was found between the unbound fraction of furosemide and the plasma concentration of albumin.
