TY - JOUR T1 - The Role of the Effective Concentration in Interpreting Hemolysis Data JF - PDA Journal of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology JO - PDA J Pharm Sci Technol SP - 161 LP - 162 VL - 46 IS - 5 AU - Gary H.

Yalkow Y1 - 1992/09/01 UR - http://journal.pda.org/content/46/5/161.abstract N2 - Problems inherent in traditional methods of determining the hemolytic activity of parenteral compounds are discussed. Data taken from a study which closely models the conditions present for an intravenous injection are re-examined. An equation is given which combines several variables into a single parameter, the effective concentration. A strong relationship is found between the effective concentration of the compound of interest and the hemolysis produced. ER -
