Reduction with [3H]KBH4 of Schiff's bases generated by reaction with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (which cannot penetrate the intact cytoplasmic membrane) yields tritium-labeled derivatives of both proteins and lipids accessible on the periplasmic side of the cytoplasmic membrane. Application of this technique

A new method is proposed for simultaneous determination of traces of arsenic (As) and selenium (Se) in biological samples by hydride-generation double-channel non-dispersive atomic-fluorescence spectrometry (HG-AFS) from tartaric acid media. The effects of analytical conditions on fluorescence signal intensity were
