A method has been developed for the determination of N7-(2-hydroxyethyl)-guanine (N7-EtOHGua) via HPLC with electrochemical detection (EC). N7-EtOHGua is the major base adduct formed in DNA upon exposure to ethylene oxide. N7-EtOHGua, released from DNA, was separated from the unmodified nucleobases by chromatography on a reversed-phase column. For electrochemical detection, an amperometric detector cell was used with a glassy carbon working electrode, set at 1.35 V relative to an Ag/AgCl reference electrode. With purified N7-EtOHGua a linear dose-response relation was observed in the range between 0.11 and 13 pmol. The signal-to-noise ratio during analysis of 0.11 pmol N7-EtOHGua was about 8 to 1. Determination of adducts in a series of DNA samples treated with 0.16-10 mM ethylene oxide showed a linear dose-dependent increase in the level of N7-modifications. For DNA samples, the detection limit of this HPLC-EC analysis is 1 N7-EtOHGua per 6 x 10(6) nucleotides.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D005027 Ethylene Oxide A colorless and flammable gas at room temperature and pressure. Ethylene oxide is a bactericidal, fungicidal, and sporicidal disinfectant. It is effective against most micro-organisms, including viruses. It is used as a fumigant for foodstuffs and textiles and as an agent for the gaseous sterilization of heat-labile pharmaceutical and surgical materials.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012474 Salmon Fish of the genera ONCORHYNCHUS and Salmo in the family SALMONIDAE. They are anadromous game fish, frequenting the coastal waters of both the North Atlantic and Pacific. They are known for their gameness as a sport fish and for the quality of their flesh as a table fish. (Webster, 3d ed).
