- The speciation in the aqueous H+/H2VO4- /phosphate (dihydrogen phosphate, P) and H+/H2VO4/H2O2/P systems has been determined in the physiological medium of 0.150 M Na(Cl) at 25 degrees C. A combination of multinuclear NMR integral and chemical shift (Bruker AMX500) as well as potentiometric data (glass electrode) have been collected and treated simultaneously by the computer program LAKE. The pK(a)-values for phosphoric acid have been determined by potentiometric and P-31 NMR chemical shift data, and have been found to be 1.85 +/- 0.02, 6.69 +/- 0.02 and 11.58 +/- 0.07. The errors given are 3 sigma. Altogether nine vanadate phosphate species have been found in the ternary H+/H2VO4-/P- system in the PH region 1-11, with the following compositions: VP, VP2 and V14P. Equilibrium is very slow in acidic solutions, requiring more than 3 months for the formation of V14P species. On the other hand, less than 15 min are needed for equilibration at neutral and alkaline pH. In the H+/H2VO4-/H2O2/P- system, four new species have been found in addition to all binary and ternary complexes. They are of VXP and VX2P compositions, where X denotes the peroxo ligand. V-51 and P-31 NMR chemical shifts, compositions and formation constants are given, and equilibrium conditions are illustrated in distribution diagrams as well as the fit of the model to the experimental data. Biological and medical relevance of the species is also discussed and physiological conditions are modelled.

- A detailed study of the quaternary aqueous H+/H2VO4−/H2O2/picolinate (Pi−) system has been performed at 25 °C in 0.150 M Na(Cl) medium using quantitative 51V NMR (500 MHz) and potentiometric data (glass electrode). In the ternary H+/H2VO4−/Pi− system, six complexes have been found in the pH region 1–10. In the quaternary H+/H2VO4−/H2O2/Pi−system, eight additional complexes have been found. Generally, equilibria are fast in both systems. The rate of peroxide decomposition depends on the species in solution. Chemical shifts, compositions and formation constants for the species are given. Equilibrium conditions and the fit of the model to the experimental data are illustrated in distribution diagrams. Possible formation of mixed ligand species with imidazole, lactic acid and citric acid have been investigated and ruled out under the same experimental conditions. Structural proposals are given, based on 13C NMR data and available crystal structures.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Using a combination of potentiometry (glass electrode) and quantitative 51V NMR spectroscopy, the full speciation in the vanadate–peroxide and vanadate–peroxide–imidazole systems was determined in the pH range 1–10 (0.150 M Na(Cl) medium, 25 °C). Using the computer program LAKE, the pKa value of imidazole and the formation constants for 10 peroxovanadate species and also for three more species where a single imidazole moiety is also bound, have been calculated. The experimental data show a good fit to the calculated speciation model, even for the less abundant species. The species are either monomeric or dimeric in vanadium, and four resonances of the dimeric species have been unambiguously assigned via 2D 51V NMR. Diperoxovanadates are the favoured species at pH 2–10, when sufficient peroxide is present. Imidazole is found to bind strongly to them at pH 6–9. The equilibrium conditions are illustrated in distribution diagrams.

- The magnitude and frequency of nocturnal ozone maxima in a high mid-latitude city (Göteborg, Sweden) has been analysed. Nocturnal ozone maxima have been reported from cities in Europe and North America and can be explained by vertical mixing of high ozone concentrations from higher levels or horizontal transportation from rural areas through local and mesoscale wind systems. Data from four summer months (May–August) in 1994 were used to analyse the relative importance of local- and mesoscale wind systems and vertical mixing in Göteborg during clear and calm weather conditions. Results show that nocturnal ozone maxima frequently occur during these conditions, with a magnitude up to 104 μg m−3. The nocturnal ozone maxima were positively correlated to both situations with a well-developed land breeze and situations with vertical mixing. During the period investigated, in total 17 nights with secondary ozone maximum occurred. The majority of the secondary ozone maxima (80%) appeared early in the night, i.e. an ozone increase within the first 3 h after sunset and sometimes even two peaks occurred. Seven of these occasions can be explained by horizontal advection, eight by vertical mixing and five cannot by certainty be explained to be due to horizontal or vertical transportation only. During the measurement period the Swedish guideline of 80 μg m−3 (for 1-h value) was exceeded 55% of the days (i.e. 68 days, 557 h) and 33% of the nights (i.e. 41 nights, 103 h) in the central parts of Göteborg. The results thus show that in Scandinavia nocturnal ozone

- The speciation in the aqueous H+/H2VO4-/H2O2/maltol (Ma), H+/H2VO4-/uridine (Ur) and H+/H2VO4-/H2O2/Ur systems was determined in the physiological medium of 0.150 M Na(Cl) at 25 °C. A combination of quantitative 51V NMR (Bruker AMX500) and potentiometric data (glass electrode) was collected and treated simultaneously by the computer program LAKE. In the quaternary maltol system, the two species VXMa2- and VX2Ma2- (where X denotes the peroxo ligand) were found in the pH region 5-10, in addition to all binary and ternary complexes. Their formation was fast. In the ternary uridine (H+/H2VO4-/Ur) subsystem, altogether three vanadate-uridine (V-Ur) species were found in the pH region 4-10, with compositions VUr2-, V2Ur22- and V2Ur23-. Equilibrium was fast except in weakly acidic solutions when slowly decomposing decavanadates formed. In the quaternary H+/H2VO4-/H2O2/Ur system, five additional species were found at pH > 7. They were of VXUr and VX2Ur compositions. Their formation was fast. Formation constants, compositions and 51V NMR chemical shifts are given for all the species found in the systems, and equilibrium conditions are illustrated in distribution diagrams as well as the fit of the model to the experimental data. Biological and medical relevance of the species (in the treatment of diabetes) are also discussed, with pseudo-physiological conditions modelled.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A detailed study of the quaternary aqueous H+/H2VO4–/H2O2/L--alanyl-L-serine (Alaser) system has been performed at 25 °C in 0.150 M Na(Cl) medium, representing the ionic strength of human blood, using quantitative 51V NMR and potentiometric data (glass electrode). Data were evaluated with the computer program LAKE, which is able to treat combined EMF and NMR data. The pKa-values for Alaser were determined as 8.04 ± 0.01 and 3.07 ± 0.01. The errors given are 3. In the ternary H+/H2VO4–/Alaser system, two complexes, (H+)p(H2VO4–)q(Alaser)r, having (p, q, r) values (0, 1, 1) and (–1, 1, 1) with log0,1,1= 2.42 ± 0.01 and log–1,1,1=–5.80 ± 0.05 explain all data in the pH region 2.5–9.5. Equilibrium conditions are illustrated in distribution diagrams and structure proposals are given based on 1H and 13C NMR investigations. In the quaternary H+/H2VO4–/H2O2/Alaser system, six complexes could be found in addition to all binary and ternary complexes over the pH region 2.6–11.1, four with a V/X/Alaser ratio 1 1 1 and two with a ratio 1 2 1 (X = peroxo ligand). The formation of the monoperoxo vanadium species is very slow, requiring up to 10 days for complete equilibrium. Significant decomposition of peroxide occurs only in acidic solutions. Chemical shifts, compositions and formation constants for the six quaternary complexes are given, and equilibrium conditions are illustrated in distribution diagrams. The H+/H2VO4–/H2O2/Alaser/Alahis system, where Alahis denotes L--alanyl-L-histidine, was briefly investigated and no mixed ligand species were detected.

On the Fate of Vanadate in Human Blood

- The cover picture shows a symbolic representation of the fate of vanadate in human blood. Since the transition metal vanadium is named after Vanadis, the Nordic goddess of beauty, she is represented by the famous Venus de Milo sculpted in metal. Her cloth is decorated with the functional groups of the ligands that can form a complex (dress) with the metal while travelling in the blood vessels, the latter being symbolised by the caverns in the background. The water in the caves represents the aqueous solutions in which speciation studies have been carried out in the group of Professor Lage Pettersson. Further references to these studies are found as cave paintings on the walls: a distribution diagram and a set of 51V NMR spectra. The studies have been carried out in the framework of the COST D21/009 working group. The geographical locations of the research groups within this working group are shown by illuminated dots on the map of Europe in the background. The goal of the studies was to better understand the ability of vanadium to lower blood glucose levels (represented by the sugar cubes washed ashore on the left) and thus its potential as an orally applicable drug against diabetes. A Microreview, covering the results of the above mentioned speciation studies dealing with the fate of vanadate in human blood, is represented by A. Gorzsás, I. Andersson, and L. Pettersson on p. 3559 ff. The digital artwork for this cover was created by András Gorzsás.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the present focused review, the speciation studies of aqueous vanadate-ligand (L) and peroxovanadate-L systems are addressed. The paper focuses solely on the systems studied at our department in the context of potential insulin-enhancing effects, including the following ligands: imidazole, alanylhistidine, alanylserine, lactate, picolinate, citrate, phosphate, maltol, and uridine. We summarise the results of detailed and thorough potentiometric (glass electrode) and 51V NMR (Bruker AMX-500 MHz) spectroscopic studies, performed at 25 °C in 0.150 M Na(Cl), a medium representing human blood. The importance of experimental conditions is discussed and illustrated. A detailed overview of our methodology, based on combining potentiometric and 51V integral and chemical shift data by means of the computer program LAKE, is also given. We list the important steps of equilibrium analysis and the kinds of information available from different sets of NMR spectra. The ligand picolinate is chosen to exemplify our working method, but conclusions are drawn from all systems, reviewing trends and common features. An overview of all systems is given in two tables, including e.g. types and number of species formed. Previously unpublished modelling results at physiological conditions are also shown for all peroxovanadate-ligand systems.
