Abstract We investigated the formation of delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-pyrrole and subsequent color development used in determining ALA in urine. Of three condensation reagents examined--acetylacetone, ethyl acetoacetate, and methyl acetoacetate--the last was the best. When the ALA-pyrrole is reacted with Ehrlich's reagent in ethyl acetate according to one procedure, the optimum concentration of perchloric acid in the reagent is 0.5 to 1.0 mol/L. Its optimum concentration is 1.0 to 2.3 mol/L when the reaction takes place in water.

The kinetics of oxidation in the first step was studied for coordination-bonded sulphur in the cysteinatobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) and bis(ethylenediamine)mercaptoacetatocobalt(III) ions using peroxodisulphate as oxidant. The effect of the acid-base equilibria of the reactants was established based on the dependences of the rate constant and the thermodynamic activation parameters ΔH and ΔS on perchloric acid concentration. The effect of ionic strength at various perchloric acid concentrations, was examined for the two complex ions. The combined effect of perchloric acid and sodium perchlorate was investigated in water-tert-butyl alcohol and water-ethylene glycol solutions. The transfer functions were calculated from the changes in the solubility of the reactants on passing from aqueous to the mixed aqueous-nonaqueous solutions, and the role of solvation during the oxidation of the complexes by peroxodisulphate was assessed based on the dependences of the transfer functions on the nonaqueous component content of the solvent system.

Abstract We evaluated six deproteinizing methods for determination of uric acid in serum by "high-performance" liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection: those involving zinc hydroxide, sodium tungstate, trichloroacetic acid, perchloric acid, acetonitrile, and centrifugal ultrafiltration (with Amicon MPS-1 devices). We used a Toyosoda ODS-120A reversed-phase column. The mobile phase was sodium phosphate buffer (40 mmol/L, pH 2.2) containing 20 mL of methanol per liter. Absorbance of the eluate was monitored at 284 nm. The precipitation method with perchloric acid gave high recoveries of uric acid and good precision, and results agreed with those by the uricase-catalase method of Kageyama (Clin Chim Acta 1971;31:421-6).
