The effect of dietary sulfur amino acids on bioelectric properties was studied in rats by using bioimpedance spectroscopy. Weanling rats were assigned to one of 12 groups in a factorially arranged experiment with dietary variables of supplemental sulfur amino acid
Plasma homocysteine is elevated in patients with impaired renal function, and markedly so at end-stage renal disease. As chronic kidney disease and hyperhomocysteinemia are also independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease, the latter is hypothesized to accelerate vascular abnormalities following
An analytical method was developed for the determination of thiols in biological samples. Reverse phase chromatography coupled to ICP quadrupole MS or Orbitrap MS was employed for the separation and detection of thiols. For the determination of total thiols, oxidized
Chromatographic determination of glutathione disulfide (GSSG) without any preliminary reduction has been presented using GSSG derivatization by p-hydroxymercuribenzoate (pHMB) in strong alkaline medium followed by the determination of GS-pHMB complex by reversed phase chromatography coupled to chemical vapour generation and
Methionine metabolism is critical during development with significant requirements for protein synthesis and transmethylation reactions. However, separate requirements of methionine for protein synthesis and transmethylation are difficult to define because after transmethylation, demethylated methionine is either irreversibly oxidized to cysteine
