How does one calculate the results of nitric oxide scavenging activity?
I have calculated nitric oxide scavenging activity with the help of griess reagent as follow:-
reagents
Phosphate Buffer Saline (PBS) pH 7.4
10 mM sodium nitropruside prepare in PBS (298mg in 100ML of PBS)
1% sulfanilamide (Sulf) (1g in 100ML of Millipore water)
2% Phosphoric acid (2.35ml in 100ml of Millipore water)
0.1% N-1-napthylethylenediamine dihydrochloride (100mg in 100ml of 2% phosphoric acid)
after this i took 1ml of plant extract (conc. 1mg/1ml) in dry test tube and then added 1ml of 10mM sodium nitropruside solution. for blank i used 1ml of 10mM sodium nitropruside solution + 1ml of methanol then all the test tubes were incubate in light at 250C for 150 minutes.
Griess reagent was prepared by mixing the equal volume of 1% sulfanilamide (Sulf) and 0.1% N-1-napthylethylenediamine dihydrochloride.
after incubation 2ml of griess reagent was added to each sample. reading were noted after 10 minutes at 546 nm.
i took sodium nitrite as standard. 1 ml of standard of different concentration + 1ml of sodium nitripruside 10mM then incubation for 150 minutes then 2ml of griess reagent.
reading are as follow
1 2 3 mean
Blank 0.176 0.187 0.216 0.193
sample 1 0.559 0.579 0.595 0.578
S-2 0.258 0.269 0.266 0.264
S-3 0.243 0.251 0.250 0.248
S-4 0.466 0.464 0.472 0.467
Now ,how to calculate nitric oxide scavenging activity?
