A highly sensitive fluorometric method for the quantitation of cholesterol, lipid and other hydroperoxides at the picomole level is described. The method is based on the oxidation of dichlorofluoroscin to the fluorescent dichlorofluoroscein by hydroperoxide and hematin under mild conditions. A 1:1 stoichiometry is observed between the hydroperoxide added and the dichlorofluoroscein produced. Since endoperoxides (e.g., PGH2 [prostaglandin H2]) do not react in the assay, they do not interfere in the determination of lipid hydroperoxides.
