Quantitative determination of thiolipids in organic solution, in membranes, and on HPTLC plates
In the presence of ortho-phthalaldehyde and glucosamine, thiolipids form fluorescent isoindole derivatives. This reaction can be used to quantify single- and double-chain mercaptans in membranes (liposomes) and micellar solutions. The lower detection limit is 100 pmol. In addition, the assay allows...
