Investigation of electrochemical behavior and development of a validated adsorptive stripping square wave voltammetry method for 3-nitrotyrosine in human plasma and cerebrospinal fluid
Özet
An adsorptive stripping square wave voltammetric (AdSqW) method was developed for the determination of 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), a biomarker of in vivo oxidative damage in Alzheimer, ALS, Parkinson's, cardiovascular diseases and cancer, in some biological fluids. Voltammetric measurements were performed in 0.30 M (pH 9.0) phosphate solution as supporting electrolyte, a reduction peak was observed at-0.487 V (vs. Ag/AgCl-3 M KCl) with a hanging mercury drop electrode by square wave voltammetry. Cyclic voltammetric measurements showed that the current was adsorption-controlled. LOD and LOQ values were as 0.25 and 1.5 nM, respectively, for the AdSqW method. 3-NT was determined in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid using AdSqW method, which allowed to work at low concentrations. Recovery value was measured as 96.3 +/- 2.3%.
