A novel separation method of urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) was developed. The C(18) and the strong cation-exchange (SCX) columns were employed to separate urinary 8-OHdG. The major interfering substances were removed by the consecutive processes of the C(18) and the SCX columns. This newly developed procedure allows researchers to quantitatively measure urinary 8-OHdG by high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detector (HPLC-ECD) successfully. The newly developed separation method produces the optimized procedure of 8-OHdG measurement, and followed by the evaluation of its basic performance. The optimized measurement was highly reproducible (CV=2.0-2.9%, n=10). A correlation was observed between the proposed HPLC-ECD method and the column switching method (r=0.96).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
