Popis: | Electron spin resonance spectroscopy was applied to determining the antioxidant capacity of eight thiol-containing compounds, including reduced glutathione, N-acetyl-L-cycsteine, methimazole, captopril, and tiopronin with one thiol group, 1,4-dithioerythritol and 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol with two thiol groups, as well as L-cystine with no free thiol group. Cu2+ ion gives an electron spin resonance signal and is reduced to Cu+ ion with no electron spin resonance signal by the free thiol group in the compounds. Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) was used to evaluate the reducing ability of the thiol-containing compounds and the TEAC values were found to be relevant to the number of thiol groups contained in the compounds. For the purpose of comparison, the UV-vis spectrophotometry, cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) method, and Ellman assay were applied to the determination of the antioxidant capacity of the thiol-containing compounds. The TEAC values obtained by the present method were very close to those obtained by UV-vis method. However, compared with CUPRAC method, for methimazole the present method gave a more reasonable TEAC value. The present method was also applied to the quantification of N-acetyl-L-cycsteine, methimazole, captopril, and tiopronin in their pharmaceutical formulations. |
