Abstract
The mechanism of drug-induced displacement of bilirubin from the blood into tissues was studied. A model of simple, competitive binding of bilirubin and drug to one site on serum albumin was established. Variations of the free bilirubin concentration after addition of drugs were studied in vitro by measuring velocities of oxidation with hydrogen peroxide and horseradish peroxidase. In all cases, the results were in agreement with the model. The competitive effects of 20 drugs were measured and expressed quantitatively as binding constants to the bilirubin site on human serum albumin. Several drugs caused changes of the bilirubin-albumin light absorption spectrum, indicating simultaneous binding of both ligands, without an effect on the free bilirubin concentration. Noncompetitive site-to-site effects on bilirubin binding could not be demonstrated.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
