Determination ofl-Ascorbic Acid and Total Ascorbic Acid in Vascular and Nonvascular Plants by Capillary Zone Electrophoresis
1998
A capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) procedure for the determination of l-ascorbic acid (AA) and total ascorbic acid (TAA, as the sum of AA and dehydroascorbic acid) in vascular plants, lichens, bryophytes, and liverworts is described. The samples were frozen in liquid nitrogen and extracted with 2% metaphosphoric acid. To determine AA, an aliquot was directly injected in a fused-silica capillary. The determination of TAA was performed upon its reduction with dl-homocysteine at pH 7. The background electrolyte contained 60 mM sodium chloride, 60 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate, 1 x 10(-4)% hexadimetrine bromide, and NaOH up to pH 7. The procedure was rapid and highly reproducible; the limi…
A multicommuted flow system with solenoid micro-pumps for paraquat determination in natural waters.
2007
A flow system designed with solenoid micro-pumps is proposed for the determination of paraquat in natural waters. The procedure involves the reaction of paraquat with dehydroascorbic acid followed by spectrophotometric measurements. The proposed procedure minimizes the main drawbacks related to the standard chromatographic procedure and to flow analysis and manual methods with spectrophotometric detection based on the reaction with sodium dithionite, i.e. high solvent consumption and waste generation and low sampling rate for chromatography and high instability of the reagent in the spectrophotometric procedures. A home-made 10-cm optical-path flow cell was employed for improving sensitivit…
Concentration-Dependent Antioxidant/Pro-Oxidant Activity of Ascorbic Acid in Chickens
2012
С vitamīns piedalās daudzos vielmaiņas procesos. Tas stiprina organisma imūnsistēmu, piedalās bioloģiskās oksidēšanās un reducēšanās procesos. Askorbīnskābe un dehidroaskorbīnskābe veido redoks sistēmu un ir saistītas ar glutationa sistēmu. Dažādu stresu ietekmē askorbīnskābes koncentrācija audos samazinās. Tādēļ barību vajag bagātināt ar šo vitamīnu. Darba mērķis bija pētīt dažādus oksidatīvā stresa biomarķierus cāļu organismā, kadmija akumulāciju orgānos, imūnsistēmas aktivitāti un nieru funkcijas izmaiņas askorbīnskābes ietekmē atkarībā no tās koncentrācijas barībā. Eksperimentos izmantojām vienu dienu vecus Lohmann Brown gailīšus, kurus sadalījām piecās analogās grupās. Cāļi saņēma komb…
