| Popis: | The binding of a hydrophobic bile salt, sodium chenodeoxycholate, by a polyacrylamide with N,N,N-trimethylammonium dodecyl chloride (QPDA12) pendant groups was studied to evaluate the thermodynamic parameters associated with the binding. The Langmuir equation was used in interpreting the data obtained from HPLC measurements. An increase in binding affinity was observed with increasing temperature indicating that the driving force for binding is derived from an increase in entropy (ΔS° = 253 J mol1K1) despite the positive, or unfavourable, enthalpy change (ΔH° = 53 kJ mol1). The positive thermodynamic parameters associated with the binding suggest that the disruption of hydrophobic and (or) ionic hydration associated with the bile salts and cationic polymer is the driving force for the binding.Key words: bile salts, endothermic binding, polymer sorbents, solvent randomization. |
