  1. Experimental and theoretical determination of Adair-Klotz constants (in torr-1) from MWC constants at pH 7.0. K R = 3.0 × 10-2torr-1, K T = 7.0 × 10-3 torr-1, and L = 33, as obtained by Yonetani et al. by fitting data with an MWC equation [16]. We used these to compute K1 to K4 using the equations presented in [7] and here compare them to K1 to K4 obtained by Yonetani et al. by fitting the same data with an Adair-Klotz equation [16]. Note that Yonetani et al. used a slightly modified version of the Adair-Klotz equation, meaning that K1 in [16] corresponds to K1 in [4], K2 in [16] to K2 in [4], K3 in [16] to K3 in [4] and K4 in [16] to 4K4 in [4]. To allow easier comparability, we used Yonetani's notation for this table and labelled the constants , ..., to avoid confusion with the original Klotz notation used everywhere else in this paper.
