Abstract

Further loss in titratable groups occurs in the region PH 5.5 to 8.5 where imidazole groups are normally titrated. The results of a study of the reaction of mustard gas with imidazole substantiate the conclusion that at physiological pH values mustard gas may react with the imidazole groups of these proteins. With the proportions of mustard gas employed very little reduction in titratable groups in the region pH 8 to 11 takes place. The oxygen dissociation ...
