Abstract

Electron spin resonance (ESR) of the ternary (DETC)2-Fe2+-NO complex has been applied to determine the nitric oxide production in tissues of rats and snails. A preliminary ESR study of the NO content in tissues of rats before and after artificially induced acute myocardial infarct was performed. The analysis of the obtained results shows that the nitric oxide production during the first hour after the moment of inducing myocardial infarct decreases. It is also demonstrated that ESR may be useful in the study of the influence of the long-term sensitization of snails on the nitric oxide production in their body. The changes in the NO production after the external influences in both cases are discussed.
