Improved radiochemical method for measuring ferrochelatase activity.
We describe a radiochemical method for measuring ferrochelatase activity in the in vitro incorporation of iron into mesoporphyrin-IX to form mesoheme. 59Fe is used to quantify ferrochelatase activity in rat liver. The uptake of iron is linearly related to the time allowed for it to occur, and the reaction proceeds optimally under reducing and anerobic conditions, maintained in sealed lyophiliza...
متن کاملFast, stable method for harvesting leukocytes for measuring intracellular magnesium.
A new method for isolating blood leukocytes and measuring intracellular leukocyte magnesium is based on three successive centrifugations (1300 x g, 5 min, 22 degrees C), with no use of Ficoll, followed by two washes. We express the leukocyte magnesium concentration in micromoles of magnesium per gram of protein. Magnesium is measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, protein by the classi...
متن کاملUse of fluo - 3 to measure cytosolic Ca 2 + in platelets and neutrophils Loading cells with the dye
A description is given of the methodology, and problems encountered, for the use of a new fluorescent Ca2+-indicator dye, fluo-3, in neutrophils and platelets. The higher Kd and longer excitation wavelength of fluo-3 can have significant advantages over fura-2. Although neutrophils and platelets are used as examples, these observations will be applicable to other cell types. The Kd of fluo-3 fo...
متن کاملImproved method for measuring hydrolyzable tannins using potassium iodate
Until now, the recommended procedure for measuring hydrolyzable tannins has been to mix the reagent and sample, subject the mixture to a certain amount of chill, allow the reaction to continue for some time at a higher temperature and then measure the absorbance of the colored solution. The effect of different chill conditions has been studied by many workers but the effect of conditions after ...
متن کاملAn improved thermal dilution method for measuring jugular venous flow.
An Improved Thermal Dilution Method for Measuring Jugular Venous Flow • The local thermal dilution method of performing serial bilateral measurements of internal jugular venous flow is significantly improved by injecting a bolus of saline rather than by using a continuous injection of saline. New thermistor catheter designs maintain the proper separation between the sites of injection and of sa...
