FluoromethcDeterminationof IndocyanineGreen in Plasma
نویسندگان
چکیده
With this fluorometric method for measuring indocyanine green (ICG) in biological fluids, the limit of detection is an order of magnitude lower than for the traditional spectrophotometric procedure. The excitation and emission maxima are 780 and 810 nm, respectively. Agreement was excellent (r = 0.998) between direct results by this method and those by a liquid-chromatographic procedure with spectrophotometric detection. ICG breaks down in aqueous solution; the degradation products can be detected with Iiquid-chromatographic/ spectrophotometnc methods, but because the metabolites are not fluorescent, they do not intertere in the method present here. The increased specificity and sensitivity of this method should permit much more complete analysis of the kinetics of ICG disposition.

متن کاملEvaluation of Liver Function Tests to Predict Operative Risk in Liver Surgery
Despite numerous studies in the past it is not possible yet to predict postoperative liver failure and safe limits for hepatectomy. In this study the following liver function tests ICG-ER (indocyaninegreen elimination rate), GEC (galactose elimination capacity) and MEGX-F (monoethylglycinexylidid formation) are examined with regard to loss of liver tissue and prediction of operative risk. Liver...
متن کاملHuman plasma derived drugs separation by fractionation of plasma with polyethylene glycol
Background: There are varieties of purification techniques for separation of human plasma proteins such as salting out, ion exchange chromatography, and ethanol fractionation. There are limitations for each method, for example in salting out method, the salt has to be removed in an additional step. Ion exchange chromatography is difficult for scaling up, and plasma fractionation is a time consu...

In this paper, plasma main characteristics such as electron mean temperature, electron number density, and oscillation frequency have been measured experimentally using the double Langmuir probe diagnostic system. In our experiment, the plasma was generated by applying the low pressure dc glow discharge in several common gases. The experimental results indicated the highest plasma density and o...
