Analytical data for the dissolution of 2 mg calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals in different polyphosphate samples
| Dissolving solution1-150 | DA values1-151 (SD) (Ca2+ μg/ml) | Dissolution (%) |
| 1.5 mg SMP1-152/ml | 24.1 (3) | 21.9 |
| 1.5 mg TSMP1-152/ml | 1.6 (0.5) | 1.5 |
| 2.3 mg PSTP1-152/ml | 21.7 (4.3) | 19.7 |
↵1-150 The amount of the polyphosphates corresponds to a concentration of 14.7 mM phosphate in phosphate buffered saline (280–300 mmol/kg, pH 7.4).
↵1-151 Dissolving ability (DA) values were expressed as concentrations of calcium ions present in solution after one hour of incubation at 37°C.
↵1-152 SMP = sodium metaphosphate; TSMP = trisodium metaphosphate; PSTP = pentasodium tripolyphosphate.
