Gas-chromatographic assay for heme oxygenase activity.
We have developed an improved assay for microsomal heme oxygenase activity, based on the enzymic release of CO from the alpha-methene bridge of hemin and the quantitation of CO by gas chromatography. The within-run coefficient of variation (CV) of heme oxygenase assays in microsomes from rat tissues (liver, kidney) averaged 8%; the between-run CV averaged 15%. The detection limit for heme oxyge...
متن کاملGas-chromatographic determination of ethylene glycol in serum.
We describe a new gas-chromatographic procedure for ethylene glycol in serum, determined as the cyclic phenylboronate ester. The method is rapid, requires only 100 microL of serum, and either an OV-1 or an OV-17 column is used. The linear dynamic range extends to at least 5000 mg/L, with a lower limit of detection of 10 mg/L. Analytical recovery of ethylene glycol from serum averaged 97% (95-10...
متن کاملSPECTROPHOTOMETRIC AND GAS CHROMATOGRAPHIC METHODS FOR DETECTION AND ASSAY OF MUSTARD GAS
A colorimetric method for detection and assay of mustard gas in urine after addition of thymolphthalein is reported. The detection limit was 80 ng/ml of llrine. Mustard gas could also be detected in urine after extraction with gas chromatography using FID detector. The detection limit was 10 ng/ml. In addition, thiodiglycol, a metabolite of mustard gas, could be converted to mustard with ...
متن کاملA High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Assay for the Determination of Losartan in Plasma
A rapid and sensitive HPLC method was developed for determination of losartan in plasma. Losartan was extracted from plasma by a two-step extraction procedure using chloroform as extracting solvent in acidic medium. HPLC analysis was performed on a cyano reversed-phase column using phosphate buffer (pH 4.3), acetonitrile (750:250, v/v) as mobile phase with a flow rate of 0.9 mL/min. Sodium dicl...
متن کاملEstimation of nitrogenase using a colorimetric determination for ethylene.
Ethylene is measured by oxidizing it to formaldehyde and determining the formaldehyde colorimetrically. The assay is applied to estimation of nitrogenase in nodulated legume roots by measuring the ethylene produced from acetylene.
