Automated Determination of Pharmaceutically and Biologically Active Thiols by Sequential Injection Analysis: A Review
نویسنده
چکیده
The present review article presents and discusses automated sequential injection (SI) based methods for the determination of pharmaceutically and biologically important thiols, namely cysteine, N-acetylcysteine, penicillamine, glutathione and captopril. The review intends to cover a range of ten years of published research on this topic (2000 – 2009). The methods are classified according to the detection systems in three categories, namely spectrophotometric, fluorimetric and electroanalytical. The determination principles of the methods are discussed and the main analytical figures of merit are tabulated.

Determination of coenzyme A (CoASH) in the presence of different thiols by using flow-injection with a UV/Vis spectrophotometric detector and potentiometric determination of CoASH using an iodide ISE.
Coenzyme A (CoA or CoASH) is one of the most important biologically active compounds, and for this reason a reliable, fast and simple determination of CoASH is needed. Here we are described a simple and fast way of determinating CoASH using potentiometric flow-injection analysis and spectrophotometric kinetic determination. The described methods are suitable for use over a wide concentration ra...

A simple and highly sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of biologically active thiols based on the fading of eosin-silver(I)-adenine ternary complex was established. In the determination of 6-mercaptopurine (MP), Beer's law was obeyed in the range 0.02-0.30 microg ml(-1), with an effective molar absorptivity at 562 nm and the relative standard deviation being 3.5 x 10(5) d...

BacBackground and Objectives: polyamines (putrecsine, spermidine and spermine) are widespread components, which can be found in most of the foods like meat, fruits, vegetables, cheese and wine. Studies show that reducing the level of polyamines in cells may help to slow down some cancer processes however, dietary polyamines may be required in wound healing, and for growth, maturation and regene...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Approach to Sequential Failure Analysis Using Petri nets
In highly competitive industrial market, the concept of failure analysis is an unavoidable fact in complex industrial systems. Reliability of such systems not only depends on the reliability of each element of these systems, but also depends on occurrence of sequence of failures. In this paper, a novel approach to sequential failure analysis is proposed which is based upon fuzzy logic and the c...
