To the Editor:
Nitric oxide (NO) is a biologically active molecule synthesized
from L-arginine in the presence of NO synthetase.
Methods to quantify NO include those that use the Griess reaction,
chemiluminescence, electron spin resonance, oxygen probing, and
electrochemical detection using a porphyrin-based microsensor
(1). The latter method is advantageous for this labile
molecule in real-time measurement and sensitivity (1)(2).
As the preparation of the microsensor is difficult, the
