Cholesterol ester (ChE) and triacylglycerol (TG) hydroperoxides in human plasma were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with postcolumn detection with diphenyl-1-pyrenylphosphine. Human plasma was extracted once with n-hexane. 2,6-Di-tert.-butyl-4-methylphenol and N-stearylcinnamide were added to human plasma before extraction as an

Ionophore-free ion exchanger electrodes were found to exhibit quite a high selectivity for the creatininium ion; however, measurements in diluted urine samples revealed large emf drifts. Potentiometric, chromatographic, NMR, and mass spectrometric evidence did not reveal any major cationic interfering
