چکیده

A sensitive method is proposed for the colorimetric determination of free fatty acids (FFA). Diphenylcarbazide containing diphenylcarbazone is used as the color developing reagent instead of diethyldithiocarbamate which was employed in the previous method (1965). J. Lipid Res. 6: 16-20). The present method was successfully applied to the determination of FFA present in as little as 40 microliter of whole blood.

Colorimetric Determination of Free Fatty Acids in Biological Fluids.

Following the introduction by Duncombe of a colorimetric micromethod for the determination of free fatty acids (FFA) dissolved in chloroform, we studied the optimum conditions for chloroform extraction of FFA from blood or other biological fluids. A degree and rate of extraction similar to those with Dole’s extraction mixture were obtained. Phospholipids are not extracted by the procedure descr...

The Effects of Simvastatin on Free Fatty Acids Profile in Fructose-fed Insulin Resistant Rats

Backgrounds: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic disease and free fatty acids, as signaling molecules, can play a crucial role in the development of it. Different free fatty acids, through various cell membrane receptors, induce different effects on metabolic pathways and thereby affect insulin sensitivity. Simvastatin is a cholesterol decreasing drug prescrib...

A sensitive method for the determination of free fatty acids in plasma.

A sensitive micromethod for the colorimetric determination of free fatty acids (FFA) in plasma has been developed. FFA are extracted with chloroform-heptane-methanol with silicic acid being added to eliminate interfering phospholipids. Diphenylcarbazide containing diphenylcarbazone has been chosen as color-developing reagent, since the chromophore formed in the presence of FFA-Cu complex is sta...
