A photochemical method for determining plasma homocysteine with limited sample processing.

چکیده
The photolytic formation of thiyl radicals allows for the selective detection of total homocysteine (tHcy) in plasma after reduction and filtering. The mechanism is based on the reduction of viologens by the α-amino carbon centred radical of Hcy generated by intramolecular hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) of its thiyl radical.

Fully automated fluorescence assay for determining total homocysteine in plasma.
Homocysteine exists in human plasma as various (mixed) disulfides. Most plasma homocysteine (about 70%) is protein bound, probably via a disulfide bond to albumin, whereas homocysteine-cysteine mixed disulfide is the predominating form in the free fraction. We here present a method for the determination of total homocysteine, which includes both fractions. Plasma was initially treated with sodi...

متن کاملHomocysteine and other thiols in plasma and urine: automated determination and sample stability.
We have developed a modified version of our fully automated column-switching HPLC method for determining total plasma homocysteine based on single-column (reversed-phase) separation. Homocysteine, cysteine, and cysteinylglycine in plasma (total concentrations), acid-precipitated plasma (non-protein-bound concentrations), and urine can be determined. The derivatization and chromatography were pe...
