Determination of Uric Acid

Uric acid is the end product of purine metabolism in man. Consequently, abnormal levels of uric acid serve to indicate disorders of metabolism of purines or nucleic acids. Serum levels of uric acid range from 200 to 420 pmol/L In males 15 to 20% and 3 to 4% of females suffer from hyperuricaemia. [Pg.149]

The enzyme used for the assay of uric acid is uricase (urate oxidase, EC 1.7.3.3) which catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to allantoin, CO2, and H2O2  [Pg.150]

The molecular weight of uricase is 100 000. The for uric acid and the pH optimum vary over a wide range depending on the source of the enzyme. [Pg.150]

According to the equation of the reaction, amperometric oxygen or hydrogen peroxide electrodes can be used to follow uric acid conversion. Potentiometric electrodes have seldom been employed because of their slow response (Kawashima and Rechnitz, 1976 Kawashimaetal., 1980). [Pg.150]

In view of the low physiological uric acid concentrations, in the assay of uric acid electrochemical interferences by other anodically oxidizable substances become particularly troublesome. Kulys et al. (1983) coimmobilized HRP with uricase in order to eliminate these interferences. This approach permits uric acid measurement to be performed at a potential of 0 V vs SCE. However, the autoxidation of ferrocyanide used as HRP substrate is a serious drawback of this method. [Pg.150]

Figure 15.14 illustrates a typical voltammetric result for the determination of dopamine in the presence of ascorbic acid with a CNT-modified electrode. The selective voltammetric detection of uric acid [82] or norepinephrine [83] in the presence of ascorbic acid has been demonstrated with a (3-cyclodextrin-modified electrodes incorporating CNTs. Ye et al. [84] have studied the electrocatalytic oxidation of uric acid and ascorbic acid at a well-aligned CNT electrode, which can be used for the selective determination of uric acid in the presence of ascorbic acid. The simultaneous determination of dopamine and serotonin on a CNT-modified GC electrode has also been described [85],... [Pg.500]

Kamei et al. [45] separated spermine, spermidine, putrescine, and cadav-erine in an ion-pair reversed-phase LC system and detected the hydrogen peroxide formed in the reaction catalyzed by the enzymes putrescine oxidase and polyamine oxidase with POCL. The same analytes were determined in a later study [46], together with the acetyl derivatives. The sensitive determination of uric acid, selectively converted to hydrogen peroxide by uricase, has been investigated by several authors [37, 47],... [Pg.158]

Sodium tungstate is used in the manufacture of heteropolyacid color lakes, which are used in printing inks, plants, waxes, glasses, and textiles. It is also used as a fuel-cell electrode material and in cigarette filters. Other uses include the manufacture of tungsten-based catalysts, for fireproofing of textiles, and as an analytical reagent for the determination of uric acid. [Pg.291]

Electrochemical detection was easily employed for the determination of uric acid in urine, abnormal concentrations of which have been linked to several disease states [14]. A glass/PDMS hybrid device with an off-chip platinum electrode was used to evaluate standard samples for both dopamine and uric acid. The linear responses for dopamine and uric acid were 1-165 and 15-110 pM, respectively, with a 1 pM limit of detection for both. Normal concentrations of uric acid in urine are 800-8000 pM, thus a 50 to 75-fold dilution was used with the urine samples analyzed to place them within the linear range of the detection method. Uric acid concentrations in these urine samples were confirmed using the clinically accepted method. This new method should allow clinical detection of both abnormally high and abnormally low uric acid concentrations in urine samples on a microdevice. [Pg.433]

Various methods have been proposed for the simultaneous determination of uric acid and allantoin in different biological matrices. For urine samples, GC-MS was applied for the determination of both compounds. However, HPLC methods are stiU widely accepted. [Pg.467]

Clearly, the determination of such compounds is crucial for diagnosis and monitoring of renal disease and metabolic disorders. The concentration of oxypurines in blood serum is among the most important parameters in biochemistry and clinical chemistry. Determination of uric acid is performed by enzymatic methods or colori-metrically by reduction of phosphotungstate. [Pg.1682]

HPLC methods for the determination of uric acid found in literature include ion exchange, ion-pairing, reversed phase, and size exclusion. Most of these require depro-teinization before analysis, but direct analysis of semm uric acid was also successful by column switching liquid chromatography. [Pg.1682]
