Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA), a high-molecular-weight linear polysaccharide, restricts solute transport through the interstitial space. Albumin and hydroxyethyl starch (HES) solutions are used to correct the decrease of blood volume during surgery, but may leak into the interstitial space under inflammation conditions. Given the possibility that the structure of HA may be affected by adjacent macromolecules, this study tested whether albumin and HES (Mw 130,000) exert different effects on solute permeation through sodium hyaluronic acid (NaHA: Mw 1.3 × 106) solution. To this end, permeation of Orange G, a synthetic azo dye (Mw 452), into NaHA solutions containing albumin or HES over time was assessed. The amount of time it took for the relative absorbance of Orange G to reach 0.3 (T0.3) was determined in each NaHA solution relative to the reference solution (i.e., colloid solution without NaHA). Relative T0.3 values of albumin were larger than those of HES for 0.1% NaHA solution (3.33 ± 0.69 vs. 1.16 ± 0.08, p = 0.006, n = 3) and 0.2% NaHA solution (1.95 ± 0.32 vs. 0.92 ± 0.27, p = 0.013, n = 3). This finding may help in the selection of an appropriate colloid solution to control drug delivery into the interstitial space of cancer tissue under inflammation conditions.Funding Information
