title: Chloramphenicol binding to normal and kwashiorkor sera.
abstract: The binding of chloramphenicol to normal and kwashiorkor sera was investigated in vitro. Chloramphenicol is predominantly albumin bound, although a significant degree of binding to the other major protein fractions occurs. From the clinical view point, a decreased degree of binding of kwashiorkor serum (+/-5%) is not of significance.
