Detection of nitric oxide in tissue by spin trapping EPR spectroscopy and triacetylglycerol extraction
Tóm tắt
A modified method based on EPR spin trapping and triacetylglycerol extraction was used for tissue nitric oxide (NO) detection at room temperature. NO signal intensity was stable for about 1.5 h and the detection limit of this method was less than 200 pmol g−1 tissue. Using this method, we report evidence that NO production in vivo can be inhibited by adriamycin in mice livers.
