Lithium Lactate

The biochemical and histological changes following 60 days administration of daily doses equivalent to 1/20 LD50 of lithium lactate and hydrochlorothiazide, as such and in association, were studied in male Wistar rats. No mortality or overt signs of toxicity were observed during the experiment and the serum activities of transaminases, alkaline phosphatase and cholinesterase were not significantly modified compared to controls. The histopathological examination of all the investigated organs: kidney, liver, brain and spleen, revealed significant lesions which were time-dependant and more pronounced in the association group. Although the changes were mostly inflammatory and conqestive, it was proved that the concomitant administration of lithium and hydrochlorothiazid is potentially dangerous, increasing lithium’s nephrotoxicity and the thiazide diuretic's hepatotoxicity.

Lithium Lactate

Abstract We describe an automated enzymatic reaction-rate method for spectrophotometric determination of lactate in serum with a miniature centrifugal analyzer. The L(+)-lactate is selectively oxidized in the presence of lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) and NAD+ to from NADH, whitch is measured from its absorption. Reaction rates are determined automatically, and unknown concentrations are calculated from a computer0generated calibration curve with aqueous lithium lactate standards. Lactte concentrations in the range 0.32-1.6 µg/4 µl (80-400 mg/liter) of sample were determined with relative errors and coefficient of variation of 4.8%. Analytical recovery of lactate added to pooled serum was 89-112% (average, 101%). Comparison with a kit ("Rapid Lactate") method gave a correlation coefficient squared of 0.979 over a concentration range of 39-779 mg/liter.

Abstract We have studied, both in vitro and in vivo, the quantitative effects of lactic acid production on concentrations of ionized calcium, bound calcium, pH, bicarbonate, and albumin. To do so, we examined the effects of addition of aqueous solutions of either hydrochloric acid, lactic acid, or lithium lactate to blood; we studied in vitro accumulation by storing blood sealed in tubes at room temperature for 5 h, then exposing the blood to air; and we induced in vivo production of lactic acid in healthy individuals who climbed stairs for 10 min. Lactic acid evidently affects the ionized, protein-bound, and complex-bound calcium concentrations in the following ways: (a) hydrogen ions from lactic acid bind to protein, which decreases protein-bound calcium; (b) lactate chelates calcium ions from free ionized calcium and protein-bound calcium about equally; and (c) the loss of a millimole of bicarbonate, either by exposure of blood to air or by respiratory alkalosis, results in the release of about 7 mumol of calcium ions, which re-equilibrate with both the protein-bound and ionized calcium. Because lactate apparently removes calcium ions directly from albumin, our study indicates that protein-bound calcium readily provides calcium ions that buffer changes in the concentration of ionized calcium.
