Abstract:
The methods we have presented are suitable for measuring end products of the NO pathway in biological fluids. In particular, the first part of this article demonstrated how standard methods could be improved to increase the sensitivity of NO measurements in biological methods. In addition, we showed two possibilities for the estimation of NO formation in higher species, as NO standard measurements in these species are often not reliable to detect changes of the NO pathway.
