Abstract
Abstract A highly selective nitric oxide (NO) sensor is fabricated and applied to devise an enhanced flow injection analysis (FIA) system for S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) measurement in biological samples. The NO sensor is prepared using a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) gas-permeable membrane loaded with Teflon AF ® solution, a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and 2,2-bis(trifluoroethylene)-4,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxole, to improve selectivity. This method is much simpler and possesses good performance over a wide range of RSNOs concentrations. Standard deviation for three parallel measurements of blood plasma is 4.0%. The use of the gas sensing configuration as the detector enhances selectivity of the FIA measurement vs. using less selective electrochemical detectors that do not use PTFE/Teflon type outer membranes.
