Semiautomated Method for the Colorimetric Determination of Plasma Free Fatty Acids.
نویسنده
چکیده
A semiautomated procedure is described for the estimation of plasma free fatty acids. The method requires the preliminary preparation of a phospholipid-free plasma lipid extract which is then analyzed automatically by a colorimetric procedure based on the solubility of copper soaps in chloroform, with subsequent complexing of the copper with diethyldithiocarbamate and measurement of the extinction at 440 mp.

Modified semiautomated method for free fatty acids in serum.
Modifications have been made to the reagent system of the semiautomated method for the determination of plasma free fatty acids by Baird et al. (1967), and results are reported of investigations into parameters affecting sensitivity and analytical range.
متن کاملA novel semiautomated method for the estimation of free fatty acid in serum or plasma.
A modification of the semiautomated assay method of Antonis (1965. J. Lipid Res. 6:307-312) for free fatty acid is presented. Free fatty acids are extracted from serum or plasma into di-n-butyl ether-2-methoxyethanol; the extract is almost free from phospholipids. The acids are analyzed in a portion of extract by a copper soap method using diphenylcarbazide. The extractant, being less dense tha...
متن کاملColorimetric Determination of Free Fatty Acids in Biological Fluids.
Following the introduction by Duncombe of a colorimetric micromethod for the determination of free fatty acids (FFA) dissolved in chloroform, we studied the optimum conditions for chloroform extraction of FFA from blood or other biological fluids. A degree and rate of extraction similar to those with Dole’s extraction mixture were obtained. Phospholipids are not extracted by the procedure descr...
متن کاملThe Effects of Simvastatin on Free Fatty Acids Profile in Fructose-fed Insulin Resistant Rats
Backgrounds: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic disease and free fatty acids, as signaling molecules, can play a crucial role in the development of it. Different free fatty acids, through various cell membrane receptors, induce different effects on metabolic pathways and thereby affect insulin sensitivity. Simvastatin is a cholesterol decreasing drug prescrib...
متن کاملA more sensitive and stable colorimetric determination of free fatty acids in blood.
A sensitive method is proposed for the colorimetric determination of free fatty acids (FFA). Diphenylcarbazide containing diphenylcarbazone is used as the color developing reagent instead of diethyldithiocarbamate which was employed in the previous method (1965). J. Lipid Res. 6: 16-20). The present method was successfully applied to the determination of FFA present in as little as 40 microlite...
