Manual fluorometric paper disc method for determining tyrosine in blood.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A spectrophotofluorometric method is described for the determination of tyrosine in blood dried on filter paper discs. It has been found that by immersing the paper disc containing the dried blood in aqueoustrichioracetic acid, the blood proteins remain bound to the paper and the amino acid is eluted into the aqueousphase.This method of assay is based on the principle that tyrosine reacts with a-nitroso-fl-naphthol to form a highly fluorescent product.

متن کاملManual fluorometry of phenylalanine from blood specimens collected on filter paper: a modified procedure.
In this manual fluorometric method, blood samples are used that have been impregnated on the filter paper, a convenient collection technique that is widely used to screen newborns for phenylketonuria. The modified procedure, based on the method of McCaman and Robins [J. Lab Clin. Med. 59, 885 (1962)], includes elution of phenylalanine from specimens on filter paper, removal of proteins by preci...
