pubmed:abstractText |
A simple and effective assay for nitrite and nitrate in human serum has been developed using ion chromatography. Initial experiments using isocratic carbonate-bicarbonate elution with conductivity detection on a Dionex QIC system with an AS4A-SC column showed promise but were unsatisfactory because of co-elution problems with nitrite. Carbonate and chloride were investigated as eluents using a gradient system, and direct UV detection at 214 nm was used in place of conductivity detection. Dionex AS4A, AS9A, AS12, Nucleopac PA-100 and Carbopac PA-100 columns were compared for selectivity and resistance to overload. The final method, using a chloride concentration gradient, pH buffering and direct UV detection with a Carbopac PA-100 column, shows good resolution, does not suffer from chloride overload and is simple to use. The method is being used in an investigation of the role of nitric oxide in pre-eclampsia, a hypertensive disorder during pregnancy.
