Plot of 1/(A0 − A) vs. 1/Cmetal; A0 and A = the absorbance of BSA alone and BSA-metal complexes, respectively; Cmetal = concentration of Cu+, Ni+2, and Al+3. Buffer: tris (pH 7.4); CBSA = 12 µM; Cmetal = 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, and 32 µM; (a) KCu+ = 3.46 × 104 M−1, (b) KNi2+ = 1.28 × 104 M−1, and (c) KAl3+ = 2.08 × 104 M−1 are the binding constants.
