Abstract
In the order to allow a better simulation of the distribution of the zinc complexes that pertain to a nutritive mixture used in total parenteral nutrition (TPN), the equilibrium constants for the ternary systems zinc—cystein—histidine, zinc—glycine—histidine and zinc—glycine—cysteine, and the binary systems zinc—histidine and zinc—glycine have been investigated — or reinvestigated when already studied — under experimental conditions corresponding to blood plasma (37°C, 0.15 M NaClO 4). The incidence of the results on the previously predicted dose of zinc for TPN is briefly discussed.
