Fluorometric techniques for the detection of nitric oxide and metabolites
Current Protocols in Toxicology
|October 10, 2012
Abstract:
Recently fluorometric techniques have been developed to determine NO and S-nitrosothiols with improved sensitivity over spectrophotometric techniques based on similar chemistry. This unit contains protocols for detection and quantification of NO from chemical reactions and from cellular systems, and of S-nitrosothiols in chemical, biochemical, and cellular experiments.

Photoluminescence: Applications
Photoluminescence offers a wide range of applications due to its inherent sensitivity and selectivity. This technique allows for both direct and indirect analyses of the analyte. Direct quantitative analysis is possible when the analyte exhibits a favorable quantum yield for fluorescence or phosphorescence. However, an indirect analysis may be feasible if the analyte is not fluorescent or phosphorescent, or if the quantum yield is unfavorable. Indirect methods include reacting the analyte with...
Gas Chromatography: Types of Detectors-II
In gas chromatography, different detectors are employed to meet specific analytical needs. These detectors are often categorized based on their detection mechanisms and the types of compounds they are best suited to analyze. Thermal Conductivity Detectors (TCD), Flame Ionization Detectors (FID), and Electron Capture Detectors (ECD) represent common categories, each with unique operating principles and applications. However, beyond these, several other detectors are designed for more specialized...
