Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, a uracil-specific fluorogenic reaction developed by our research group was applied to the quantification of urinary uracil concentration for the development of a facile and rapid diagnostic method of DPD deficiency. As a result, we have succeeded in a simultaneous analysis of urinary uracil level using multiple samples, which requires a simple addition of aqueous reagent solutions and heating for a few minutes. The result suggested that the present method would be applicable to the screening test of DPD deficiency at a clinical site. In addition, by changing the reaction conditions of the uracil-specific fluorogenic reaction, we also have discovered novel fluorescence derivatization methods specific to cytosine and orotic acid, respectively.
