title: The influence of the ionic medium on the behaviour of sodium glycocholate and cholate aqueous solutions.
abstract: In the framework of research on the sodium bile salts, solutions of sodium cholate and glycocholate had been studied only at three ionic medium concentrations. In this paper, experiments in two other concentrations of ionic medium are carried out both to verify the behaviour dependence on the ionic medium and to apply the results of this paper to a future investigation on solutions containing contemporary sodium cholate and glycocholate. To this aim, solubility, protonation constants, lead (II) salts solubility products at 25 degrees C and in 0.300 and 0.750 mol dm(-3) N(CH3)4Cl were determined. The formed species in solutions containing lead (II) together with the selected bile salts and the behaviour of the sodium salts in micellar and premicellar solutions were investigated, too. The obtained results were compared with those obtained at the other ionic medium concentrations.
