✦ Synopsis
Flow microcalorimetry was used to estimate primary binding constants for drugalbumin interactions. Measurements of heat of reaction at two temperatures illustrated the danger of extrapolation for pharmacokinetic purposes of measurements made at temperatures other than 37". The method could be used to predict competition between two drugs for a single binding site. Major advantages over spectroscopic techniques included direct determinations of thermodynamic parameters, and the use of physiological concentrations of albumin,

sodium carbonate mixture could be predicted to be the most stable blend after 1 day of testing. The prediction was clearly confirmed by results of a classical stability study requiring up to 6 months of storage at 50".
