Assay for pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylases in tissue extracts by high-performance liquid chromatography.

A sensitive method for the assay of pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylases in preparations of human and animal tissues by determination of pyrimidines is described. Pyrimidines formed enzymatically from thymidine, uridine, 5-fluorouridine, and 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine are determined by means of high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet (UV) detection. The pyrimidines, after extraction with ethyl acetate, are separated by reversed-phase chromatography on μ-Bondapak C-18/Porasil. The limits of detection are 2.5, 1.0, and 2.0 pmol for thymine, uracil, and 5-fluorouracil, respectively.
