Micellization of AOT in aqueous sodium chloride, sodium acetate, sodium propionate, and sodium butyrate media: a case of two different concentration regions of counterion binding.

Critical micelle concentrations of AOT in water in the presence of sodium chloride, sodium acetate, sodium propionate, and sodium butyrate were determined at 25 degrees C by the surface tension method. The co-ions do not have any effect on the value of critical micelle concentration. The surface density of AOT at the air-water interface increases in the presence of added electrolyte and attains a maximum value of 2.5+/-0.1 mol m-2 at a particular electrolyte concentration which is different for sodium chloride and the other three electrolytes. From the Corrin-Harkins plot it has been found that for AOT micelles the counterion binding constant has values 0.40 and 0.82 below and above approximately 0.015 mol kg-1 electrolyte concentration (c*), respectively. Measurement of sodium ion activity from the EMF method has confirmed such a shift in the counterion binding constant of AOT at c*. The higher value of the counterion binding constant for AOT has been reported for the first time. From fluorescence spectroscopy it has been found that the aggregation number of AOT is 22 in water and its average aggregation numbers in the presence of electrolytes are about 34 and 136 below and above c*, respectively. The increase by a factor of 2 in the counterion binding constant is shown to be due to a change in the shape of the AOT micelles around c*. The shape of AOT micelles in the electrolyte concentration range c* is inferred to be oblate spheroid and a change from this shape appears to occur above c*. A sudden increase in the polarity of the micelle-solution interface is also observed above c*.

Effects of infused sodium acetate, sodium lactate, and sodium beta-hydroxybutyrate on energy expenditure and substrate oxidation rates in lean humans.

Infusion of sodium acetate in lean humans results in a decrease in respiratory exchange ratio, which may be advantageous in patients with respiratory failure. However, this potential decrease in respiratory work was observed to be offset by significant thermogenesis. The metabolic effects of sodium acetate, sodium lactate, and sodium beta-hydroxybutyrate, infused at a rate of 20 mumol.kg-1.min-1 for 3 h, was monitored in six healthy human volunteers. Respiratory exchange ratio decreased from 0.85 +/- 0.02 at baseline to 0.75 +/- 0.02, 0.75 +/- 0.02, and 0.80 +/- 0.02, after acetate, lactate, or beta-hydroxybutyrate, respectively (P < 0.05 for each). Acetate produced a larger thermic effect (22.7% of energy infused) than did lactate (16.3%) or beta-hydroxybutyrate (13.6%). Thus, sodium salts of organic acids may potentially decrease the respiratory requirements by decreasing the respiratory exchange ratio. However, this effect is partially offset by the thermic effect of these substrates. The maximal doses and safety of these anions during larger infusion periods remain to be determined.

Myocardial depressant effects of sodium acetate.

Sodium acetate produced a direct, dose-related decrease in myocardial contractile force in the dog and isolated rabbit papillary muscle. In the dog, there was also a decrease in blood pressure which was attributed primarily to the fall in contractile force. However, sodium acetate was found to have weak vasodilator properties as shown by the decreases in hind-limb perfusion pressure.

Effects of intraruminal infusions of sodium acetate and sodium chloride on silage intake by lactating cows.

Lactating dairy cows prepared with rumen fistulas were fed on grass silage and concentrates and used in two experiments to compare the effects of sodium acetate and sodium chloride infused over 3 h into the rumen on the voluntary intake of silage. Silage intake was depressed in an approximately linear manner by increasing amounts (6-15 mol) of sodium acetate (NaOAc) and 15 mol NaCl had an effect similar to that of 12 mol NaOAc. Sodium in rumen fluid was significantly correlated with intake as was osmolality. 5.5, 7.4 or 9.1 mol of NaOAc significantly depressed silage intake, while 7.4 and 9.1 mol NaCl had significant effects. There were significant negative relationships between intake and the level of NaOAc or NaCl. It is concluded that the major effect of either salt was via the elevation of osmolality of rumen fluid and the relevance to normal control of feeding is discussed.

Responses in the voluntary intake of hay or silage by lactating cows to intraruminal infusions of sodium acetate or sodium propionate, the tonicity of rumen fluid or rumen distension.

Rumen-fistulated lactating cows were individually fed on hay or silage and intakes were monitored during 3 h treatment periods and for 2 h after. Each experiment used five, six or seven animals and the treatments were applied in a Latin Square design. Sodium acetate infusions of 1.8-11.0 mol in 4.5 litres water caused a dose-related depression in hay intake, the extent being 82 g dry matter (DM)/mol infused (P < 0.01). Sodium acetate infusions of 6.0-15.0 mol in 4.5 litres water caused a dose-related depression in silage intake of 118 g DM/mol infused. Rumen fluid pH for both diets was unaffected by treatment. Acetate and Na concentrations were increased and significantly negatively correlated with intake of both diets. Infusions of 2-8 mol sodium propionate caused a dose-related depression of hay intake which was significant when cow and day effects were accounted for. Sodium propionate infusions of 4-8 mol significantly depressed silage intake by 140 g DM/mol infused (P < 0.001). Rumen fluid pH was unaffected by treatment while propionate and Na concentrations were elevated and significantly negatively correlated with intake for both diets. Inflation of a rubber balloon in the rumen with 12.5-20 litres warm water resulted in a dose-dependent depression in hay intake of 66 g DM/l distension (P < 0.05). There was significant overeating during the 2 h following the 20 litre treatment. With silage, 15-25 litres of balloon distension for 3 h resulted in a dose-dependent depression in intake of 28 g DM/l distension (P < 0.001). There was no significant overeating during the 2 h following distension. When given in physiological amounts, at the lower end of the range used in these experiments, acetate, propionate and distension of the rumen did not significantly affect hay intakes. However, in each case the linear relationship between intake depression and level of treatment suggested that these factors could contribute to the control of feed intake.

Is sodium acetate dextran superior to sodium chloride dextran for small volume resuscitation from traumatic hemorrhagic shock?

Small volumes (4 mL/kg body weight (bw)) of hypertonic sodium chloride dextran effectively restore cardiac output and nutritional blood flow and increase arterial pressure in severe hemorrhagic shock. It has been suggested that the chloride anion be replaced with acetate to provide a solution that avoids the risk of hyperchloremia and has the advantage of supplying a buffering base to optimize hypertonic resuscitation. This study compares the effects of hypertonic sodium chloride dextran solution (7.2% NaCl/10% dextran 60 [NaCl-Dx]; n = 7) with sodium acetate dextran (10.4% Na-Ac/10% dextran 60 [NaAc-Dx]; n = 6) on hemodynamic, oxygen transport, and metabolic variables. Both solutions had the identical osmolality (2400 mOsmol/kg). Dogs (16.9 +/- 1.9 kg) were anesthetized and mechanically ventilated. Shock was induced by exteriorization of intestine and blood withdrawal (50% of blood volume) to maintain mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) at 40 mm Hg for 75 min. Thereafter, resuscitation was performed either with NaCl-Dx (4 mL/kg over 2 min) or NaAc-Dx (4 mL/kg over 4 min). During hypertonic resuscitation, there was a short-lasting decrease in MAP, which was more pronounced in the NaAc-Dx group (delta MAP -7.3 +/- 2.5 mm Hg). Cardiac index and oxygen consumption were normalized within 5 min after resuscitation with both solutions. In NaAc-Dx-treated animals, MAP remained at lower values as compared to NaCl-Dx-treated dogs at 5 and 30 min after resuscitation (52 +/- 3 vs 74 +/- 6, and 61 +/- 7 vs 79 +/- 12 mm Hg; P < 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Potentiation of the toxicity of basic peptides from rattlesnake venoms by sodium acetate.

The potentiating effect of sodium acetate on the toxicity of crotamine from Crotalus durissus terrificus venom, E toxin from Crotalus horridus horridus venom, and myotoxin a from Crotalus viridus viridis venom was examined. Subcutaneous injection of 6.3 mg/kg body weight of either crotamine or E toxin in 0.6 ml of water or myotoxin a in 0.6 ml of 0.05 M Tris/0.1 M NaCl buffer, pH 9.0, failed to produce lethality in mice. Injection of either E toxin or crotamine at doses of 4.0 mg/kg in 0.6 ml of 20 mM phosphate, pH 7.2, containing 1 M sodium chloride also failed to produce lethality. However, when any of the toxins were injected in 0.4 ml of 1 M sodium acetate, pH 7.0, lethality was observed. LD50 values of 1.43 mg/kg for E toxin, 1.39 mg/kg for crotamine and 0.56 mg/kg for myotoxin a were determined under these conditions. Lethality was also observed when either sodium propionate or sodium butyrate was used as a carrier for E toxin. The effect of these two buffers on crotamine and myotoxin a was not examined. Injection of E toxin s.c. in water followed at various time intervals with i.p. injections of 1 M sodium acetate produced lethality, even when the acetate was injected up to 4 hr after the toxin challenge.

Antifungal activity of sodium acetate and Lactobacillus rhamnosus.

The inhibition of molds by sodium acetate in deMan Rogosa Sharpe (MRS) medium, along with the antifungal activity of Lactobacillus rhamnosus VT1, was studied by the slope agar plate method. MRS agar prepared with and without sodium acetate was used as the agar substrate. A total of 42 strains of Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, Alternaria, Cladosporium, and Rhizopus were used to compare sensitivities to the inhibitory activity of sodium acetate and L. rhamnosus VT1. It was found that sodium acetate in MRS medium affected the growth of 33 of the 42 mold strains tested to various degrees. The highest sensitivity to sodium acetate was shown by strains of Fusarium, followed by strains of Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Rhizopus. L. rhamnosus VT1 also inhibited mold growth. A significant finding was that sodium acetate and L. rhamnosus VT1 in combination exhibited a possible synergistic action. Thirty-nine of the 42 mold strains tested were completely inhibited by the presence of both antifungal agents. This finding confirms that sodium acetate, a basic component of commercial MRS medium, has strong antifungal properties, and this must be taken into consideration when evaluating the antifungal activity of Lactobacillus cultures grown in MRS broth.

Sodium acetate as a preservative in protein hydrolysate solutions.

The inhibitory effect of sodium acetate on microorganism growth in protein hydrolysate solutions was studied. Solutions of 5% protein hydrolysate and 5% dextrose in water (seven parts) and 50% dextose in water (three parts) containing 0, 30, 50 and 90 mEq/liter of sodium acetate were inoculated with Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The number of colony-forming units in the solutions after inoculation was compared with that after incubation for 24 hours at 37 C. Sodium acetate inhibited growth of S aureus and E coli. Growth of P aeruginosa was inhibited in protein hydrolysate solutions with and without sodium acetate; inhibition could not be attributed solely to sodium acetate and may have been releated to pH of the solutions (4.7 to 5.4). Growth of C albicans was not inhibited by sodium acetate. Sodium acetate reduced growth of some common contaminants of protein hydrolysates. Sodium acetate is known to reduce metabolic acidosis, a reported complication of parenteral nutrient therapy and a possible predisposing factor in C albicans sepsis. Addition of sodium acetate to protein hydrolysate solutions should be considered seriously.
