Facile and specific methods to quantify a nucleobase in biological samples are of great importance for diagnosing disorders in nucleic acid metabolism. In the present study, a novel fluorogenic reaction specific for uracil has been developed. The reaction was carried out in an alkaline medium containing benzamidoxime and K(3)[Fe(CN)(6)] which were heated for 2.0 min. Under the optimum reaction conditions, strong fluorescence was produced only from uracil, not from other many biogenic compounds tested such as cytosine, thymine, adenine, guanine, nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides, amino acids, saccharides, creatine, creatinine and urea. The sensitivity of this method was compared with a known fluorogenic reaction using phenacylbromide which does not react with uracil but reacts with cytosine, adenine and their analogues. The proposed uracil-specific reaction showed approximately 400-fold higher sensitivity than the phenacylbromide reaction. The lower detection limit of uracil by the present method was 100 pmol mL(-1), and a good linearity of the calibration curve was obtained up to 100 nmol mL(-1) uracil. Due to its high sensitivity and specificity, the quantitative determination of uracil was possible by the proposed fluorimetric method.
