Abstract

Determination methods for purine and pyrimidine bases, nucleosides, nucleotides and related compounds using analytical capillary isotachophoresis are reviewed. First, the isotachophoretic characterization of these compounds, as well as methods for sample preparation prior to analysis, and the different ways of detecting unknown substances in complex biological systems are described. Then applications of isotachophoretic analysis in medical diagnosis and biomedical research are reviewed. In particular, the analysis of purines, pyrimidines, nucleosides and related compounds in blood and serum for the diagnosis and treatment of inherited diseases and cancer is described. Selected applications of nucleotide analysis in biomedical research using different tissue extracts are also reviewed, and some examples of nucleotide-dependent enzymic reactions, which were performed by means of analytical isotachophoresis, are presented.
