Separation and quantitation of coproporphyrin and uroporphyrin in urine.

چکیده
Coproporphyrin and uroporphyrin are separated from urineand from each other by absorption onto, and Selective elution from, an anion-exchange resin. The two compounds are #{233}eparated by using solvents differing in both polarity and pH. The porphyrins are then quantitated with an Aminco-Bowman Spectrophotofluorometer equipped with an ellipsoidal mirror and a red-sensitive photomultiplier tube. Porphyrins can be determined in 1 ml of urine from a normal individual.

A simple method for the separation and quantification of urinary porphyrins.
A simple routine method for the separation and quantification of urinary coproporphyrin and uroporphyrin using anion-exchange resin columns is described. The coproporphyrin is first removed from the urine by ether extraction. The anion exchange resin column is then used to isolate the uroporphyrin from the aqueous residue. The proposed method is compared with an existing method developed by Rim...
متن کاملCompensation by zinc chelation for fluorescent background in determining coproporphyrin and uroporphyrin in urine.
An improved method for separation and fluorescent analysis of coproporphyrin and uroporphyrin in urine was presented by Sobel, Cano, and Thiers [Clin. Chem. 20, 1397 (1974)]. Accurate determination of porphyrin concentrations by this method is impeded by the fluorescent background in urine samples, which varies from one specimen to another. By use of a straightforward procedure, zinc may be inc...
متن کاملDirect assay of uroporphyrin and coproporphyrin in human urine by reverse-mode field amplified sample injection-sweeping and micellar electrokinetic chromatography.
In this study, an on-line stacking capillary electrophoresis (CE) method, reverse-mode field amplified sample injection equipped with sweeping micellar electrokinetic chromatography (RMFASI-sweeping MEKC), was established for direct determination of uroporphyrin and coproporphyrin in human urine. Porphyrins playing a very important role in the biosynthesis of heme, chlorophyll and other importa...
متن کاملLong-standing changes in the urinary profile of porphyrin isomers after clinical remission of porphyria cutanea tarda.
Patients with overt porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) show a distinctive and abnormal urinary profile of porphyrin excretion. It is not known, however, whether clinical remission of the disease produces complete normalization of this profile. We selected 46 patients, previously diagnosed with PCT, who after treatment presented normal levels of total porphyrins in urine (< 35 nmol/mmol creatinine). ...
متن کاملTotal porphyrin and coproporphyrin and uroporphyrin fractions in urine measured by second-derivative spectroscopy.
A second-derivative scan of an acidified urine sample allows the amplitude of deflection (delta A) and the minimum wavelength of the trough (lambda min) to determine the correct porphyrin concentration and the coproporphyrin:uroporphyrin (copro:uro) ratio, respectively, from a nomogram constructed from calibrator solutions. We measured 24 urine samples for total porphyrin as coproporphyrin equi...
