The procedure is based on the coordination reaction between hydralazine and Fe2+ ions, which results in the formation of a purple complex monitored at 538 nm. For determination of total iron, Fe3+ ions were reduced using ascorbic acid. Under optimized conditions, a linear calibration graph (0.1 - 6.0 ?g?ml–1;n = 6) was obtained. The method allows LOD (3? of blank/slope = 0.06 ?g?ml–1) and LOQ (10? of blank/slope = 0.22 ?g?ml–1). The RSD ((s/ ) × 100) for a mixed standard containing 0.60 ?g?ml–1 Fe2+ and Fe3+ was 0.10% (n = 10). Recoveries of spiked samples were 94.3% - 106.0%. The analytical frequency was 60 h–1. The effect of possible interferences has been studied. The procedure was successfully applied for analysis of environmental samples. The real samples results were comparable with those obtained by the official method considering a paired t-test and 95% of confidence level.展开更多

These multiple transfusions are usually accompanied by Iron over load. The current study aimed to assess the Iron profile in Sudanese patients with chronic renal failure received regular blood transfused. Materials and Methods: A descriptive analytical case control study was performed in Alturki Teaching Hospital, Khartoum, Sudan. A total of 90 Sudanese were enrolled in this study (30 CKD patients under hemodialysis and undergo multiple blood transfusion, 30 CKD patients under hemodialysis but not blood transfusion and 30 healthy controls, 51 (57%) were male and 39 (43%) were females, their age ranged between 28 to 75 years. Iron profile (serum iron, serum ferritin and total iron binding capacity (TIBC)) were measured using full automated Chemical analyzer Mindray BS 200 (China). Data were analyzed by using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) verssion16. Results: The present study showed that serum iron and serum ferritin of those under hemodialysis and received regular blood transfusion patient were significantly higher compared to those under hemodialysis and did not received regular blood transfusion patients (P value 0.000 and 0.01) respectively. Conclusion: Patients with chronic renal failure and under hemodialysis and receive regular and multiple transfusions are prone to iron overload.展开更多
