Studies in calcium metabolism: ii. further contributions to the comparative studies of the physico-chemical properties of the gluconate and cevitamate of calcium and of vitamin c

  • Published:
The American Journal of Digestive Diseases

Summary

  1. 1.

    A comparative study of the solubility and ionization of Calcium Cevitamate and calcium gluconate shows the markedly greater solubility and ionization of the Calcium Cevitamate.

  2. 2.

    The yield of calcium ion per cc. of solution is 20 to 60 times greater for Calcium Cevitamate than for calcium gluconate.

  3. 3.

    The combining power of Calcium Cevitamate with serum proteins is four times greater than that of calcium gluconate, thus establishing a greater ration of utilization by the tissues for Calcium Cevitamate than for calcium gluconate.

  4. 4.

    A schema for serum calcium reactions is presented.

  5. 5.

    The saturation point of Vitamin C in human serum is established at somewhat above 0.5 mg. per cc.

  6. 6.

    Data is adduced towards the physico-chemical relationship of parathyroid hormone to the blood serum.
