Determination of 8-oxo-purines in DNA by HPLC using amperometric detection

  • Chapter
Analysis of Free Radicals in Biological Systems

Summary

High-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrochemical detection is a sensitive assay for 8-oxo-purines derivatives. This technique was applied to the measurement of the rate of formation of 8- oxo-dGuo in photooxidized isolated DNA following either enzymatic digestion or acidic hydrolysis. The assay was also used to assess the excision of 8-oxo-Gua from DNA upon incubation with the Fapy DNA glycosylase protein. It also allowed the determination of the respective yield of 8-oxo-dGuo and 8-oxo-dAdo upon γ-radiolysis of DNA in aqueous aerated solution.
