Voltammetric Determination of Tumor Biomarkers using Flow Injection Analysis with Amperometric Detection
Němečková-Makrlíková, Anna ; Matysik, F.-M. ; Navrátil, Tomáš ; Barek, J. ; Vyskočil, V.
Three tumor biomarkers (homovanillic acid, vanillylmandelic acid, and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid) have been determined by flow injection analysis with amperometric detection at screen-printed carbon electrodes in optimum medium of Britton-Robinson buffer (0.04 mol l(-1), pH = 2.0). Dependences of the peaks current on the concentration of biomarkers were linear in the tested concentration region from 0.05 to 100 mu mol l(-1), with the limits of detection of 0.065 mu mol l(-1) for homovanillic acid, 0.053 mu mol l(-1) for vanillylmandelic acid, and 0.033 mu mol l(-1) for 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (calculated from heights), and 0.024 mu mol l(-1) for homovanillic acid, 0.020 mu mol l(-1) for vanillylmandelic acid, and 0.012 mu mol l(-1) for 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (calculated fromareas), respectively.
