Indophenol method for acetaminophen in serum examined.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that an indophenol-based colorimetric method for acetaminophen (Clin Toxicol 15: 67-73, 1979) has less than maximal sensitivity because of (a) incomplete hydrolysis, related to suboptimal acid concentration; (b) suboptimal hydrolysis time; and (c) possible deterioration of the ammonium hydroxide reagent after 2.5 months. We have modified the method by optimizing duration of hydrolysis and color development. Results by the method correlate linearly with acetaminophen concentrations to 250 mg/L (1.66 mmol/L). Moreover, the modified method is free from interference by compounds in serum from uremic patients.

Emergency determination of acetaminophen.
I describe a senstive colorimetric micromethod in which a pH 11.0 carbonate buffer is used to induce acetaminophen to react with Folin-Ciocalteau reagent at room temperature. These reagents and a simple solvent extraction favor formation of a stable indophenol dye with acetaminophen, giving this procedure a good degree of specificity. Results correlate well with those by liquid-chromatographic ...

Introdution: Oral consumption of Stevia extract increased the antioxidants' level in the body. In this study, the effect of Stevia extract consumption was investigated against neurological and liver complications caused by acute and chronic toxicity of acetaminophen administration in mice. Methods: In acute experiment, NMRI mice (n=12) received stevia extract (400 mg/ml) in drinking water for ...

A novel chemically modified electrode was constructed based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes, MCM48 molecular sieve composite modified glassy carbon electrode .The modified electrode showed that it can be used for simultaneous determination of acetaminophen (ACT) and codeine (COD), simultaneously. The measurements were carried out by the application of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), cycl...
متن کاملThe Effects of Acetaminophen on Human Serum Albumin (HSA)
Thermal conformational changes in human serum albumin (HSA) in present with a 10 mM phosphate buffer, at pH=7 have been investigated via circular dichroism (CD) and UV spectroscopic methods. The results indicate that temperature in a range of 25oC to 55oC could induce a reversible conformational change in the structure of HSA. The HSA phase transition corresponds to the physiological and patho...
متن کاملSingle administrations of high and low doses of acetaminophen causes different effects on COX-2 gene expression and on tissue damage in liver and kidneys
Introduction: High dose of acetaminophen (APAP) is known to have hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic effects and studies show that this toxicities are dependent on the function of phase I bioactivation enzymes- Cyp450- and phase II biotransformation enzymes especially glucuronosylation and sulfonation pathways. However, the role of cyclooxygenase (COX) as an inflammatory mediator in toxic effects of AP...
