Abstract
A Selective and sensitive assay of hypoxyanthine, xanthine and inosine by reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled with immobilized enzyme reactors is described. The flourometric detection of hydrogen peroxide using immobilized peroxidase and p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid was applied to the assay of hypoxanthine, xanthine and inosine, which were oxidized to hydrogen peroxide in the presence of the immobilized enzymes (purine nucleoside phosphorylase and/or xanthine oxidase. The enzymes were immobilized the the intermolecular cross-linking method on controlled pore-glass. The method established was applied to serum and urine samples. The detection limits of hypoxanthine, xanthine and inosine were approximately 130, 300 and 650 pg per injection, respectively.
