1. This question is adapted from Harris 19-D.
Carnosine is a dipeptide whose antioxidant properties protect cells from free radicals. Carnosine was
determined by derivatization with naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxyaldehyde and cyanide followed by
fluorescence detection using excitation at 445 nm and emission at 490. Quantification was by standard
addition. To four aliquots of 20-ul cell lysate were added volumes of 100µM carnosine standard to
generate final concentrations of 0, 1.0, 2.5, and 5.0 µM added carnosine. Solutions were diluted to 70µl
before addition of 15µl of 5 mM naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxyaldehyde and 15µl of 10 mM NaCN.
