EFFECT OF CHELATING AGENTS ON UPTAKE OF Ca$sup 45$ AND Sr$sup 85$ BY DEFATTED BONE IN VITRO
The presence of chelating agents in buffered solutions affected the relative uptake of Ca/sup 45/ and Sr/sup 85/ by defatted bone powder. Strong chelating agents, like ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid, decreased the ratio of Ca/sup 45//Sr/sup 85/ uptake considerably in presence of Ca, Ca plus Sr, or Sr carrier. Citrate and adenosinetriphosphate had similar but weaker effects. No effect was shown by glucose, lactate, gluconate, bicarbonate, bicarbonate plus phosphate, glutamate, aspartate, borate, glycerophosphate, lysine or glutathione. Those compeunds which showed no effect had stability constants for Ca of less than 3. Strong chelating agents also decreased the relative amount of Sr/sup 85/ removed from defatted bone powder by exchange. Results indicate that natural chelating agents may be partly responsible for the low Ca/sup 45//Sr/sup 85/ uptake ratio by bone from serum compared with uptake from synthetic inorganic solutions and emphasize the difficulty of removing be partly responsible for the low Ca/sup 45//Sr/sup 85/ uptske ratio by bone from serum compared with uptake from synthetic inorganic solutions and emphasize the difficulty of removing Sr/sup 35/ from bone with chelating agents now available.
