Popis: | A new microcrystalline boehmite (tentatively named PT-A) was synthesized as an efficient phosphate adsorbent to replace aluminum hydroxide gel. The characteristic structure of PT-A was examined by nitrogen adsorption/desorption, X-ray diffraction, deviation microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy to establish a pore structural model of PT-A. With this model structure, the details of the mechanism of interaction between PT-A and phosphate in the presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA) are discussed. PT-A is a spherical particle with a diameter of approximately 100 microns and a porous surface structure, and its inside is packed with boehmite microcrystals (crystallite size, 2 nm). PT-A has three types of pores in its structure: a micropore with a narrow size-distribution, a mesopore with a broad size-distribution, and a macropore (radii of pores are 0.7, 1-20, and approximately 300 nm, respectively). When phosphate was incubated with PT-A in human gastric and intestinal juices or in an aqueous solution containing BSA, the amounts of phosphate adsorbed by PT-A were not affected by the presence of proteins. The nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms and energy dispersive X-ray analyses demonstrated that phosphate could diffuse to the smaller tunnels freely even if the external surface of PT-A was covered with BSA. It was also demonstrated that the main site of adsorption for phosphate was in micropores of PT-A, whereas BSA was adsorbed only to the external surface and none entered inside smaller tunnels consisting of micro- and mesopores. |
