Article Abstract

Objective: To investigate factors affecting the determination of the percent carboxyhemoglobin saturation (HbCO%) of blood in an attempt to offer further data for results interpretation and sample storage requirement.

Methods: The HbCO% of blood samples stored in various conditions were detected by three spectrophotometries during the succeeding 30 days.

Results: The data detected by reductive double-wavelength spectrophotometry and double-wavelength spectrophotometry were more stable than mono-wavelength spectrophotometry. The HbCO% of blood was significantly related with the storage conditions which include temperature, time and the degree of exposure to air.

Conclusion: Determinations of HbCO% are reliable which performed by reductive double-wavelength spectrophotometry and double-wavelength spectrophotometry, combine with spectral scans. During 30 days, blood stored at 4 degrees C exposed to a limited volume of air does not influence the determination of HbCO%.

Effects of glycosaminoglycan from Urechis unicinctus on the P2Y1 receptor pathway and expression of related factors in rat platelets.

Pak J Pharm Sci

January 2021

Tianjin Marine Environmental Protection and Restoration Technology Engineering Center; Tianjin Key Laboratory of Marine Resource and Chemistry; College of Marine & Environment, Tianjin University of Science and Technology, Tianjin, China.

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) from Urechis unicinctus on the P2Y1 receptor pathway and expression of related factors in rat platelets. The concentration of calcium ion (Ca) in rat platelets was determined by double wavelength Fura-2 fluorescence spectrophotometry, and the concentrations of inositol trisphosphate (IP) and glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa) in rat platelets were measured using the enzymatic immunoassay method. The phosphorylation levels of phospholipase C (PLC), phospholipase A (PLA), protein kinase C (PKC), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) were also detected by Western blot.

The measurement of blood carboxyhemoglobin (CO-Hb) is important to determine the cause of death. The AVOXimeter 4000 (AVOX), a portable CO-oximeter, has the advantages of a low purchase price and operating cost, ease of operation, and rapid results. Little information is available on the usefulness of AVOX in the forensic sample, and the previous study investigated only six samples.

Intercoupling surface plasmon resonance and diffusion reflection measurements for real-time cancer detection.

J Biophotonics

February 2013

Faculty of Engineering and the Institute of Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials, Bar Ilan University, Ramat Gan, 52900, Israel.

Spatial diffusion reflection (DR) measurements of gold nanorods (GNR) were recently suggested as a simple and highly sensitive non-invasive and non-ionizing method for real-time cancer detection. In this paper we demonstrate that wavelength dependent DR measurements enable the spectral red-shift observation of highly concentrated GNR. By conjugating targeting moieties to the GNR, large density of GNR can specifically home onto cancer cells.
