  • Title: Liquid chromatographic determination of hypoxanthine content in fish tissue.
    Author: Burns BG, Ke PJ.
    Journal: J Assoc Off Anal Chem; 1985; 68(3):444-8. PubMed ID: 4019366.
    Abstract:
    A liquid chromatography (LC) method for determining the hypoxanthine content in fish tissues has been developed. Hypoxanthine is extracted with 0.6M perchloric acid, and determined by LC on a reverse phase microparticulate column with UV absorbance detection. The mobile phase is 0.01M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 4.5). The percent relative standard deviation for measurements by the recommended method was less than 7% with a detection limit of 10 ng. Recoveries of hypoxanthine added to various fish tissues were better than 90%. The operational errors, interferences, and recoveries for spiked samples have been investigated and compare favorably with an established xanthine oxidase enzyme method. The described LC method is simple, rapid, and specific for measuring hypoxanthine content in various fish tissues. Some post-mortem studies have indicated the method may also be used for the determination of adenosine monophosphate, inosine monophosphate, and inosine.
