Ferrous-diethyldithiocarbamate (Fe(DETC)2) chelate is a lipophilic spin trap devel­oped for NO detection by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. Using this spin trap we investigated the kinetics of NO production in endotoxaemia in rats induced by lipopolysaccharide (Escherichia coli, 10 mg/kg). The NO-Fe(DE- TC)2 complex was found to give a characteristic EPR signal, and the amplitude of the 3rd (high-field) component of its hyperfine splitting was used to monitor the level of NO. We found that in blood, kindey, liver, heart and lung NO production starts to in­crease as early as 2 h after LPS injection, reaches the maximum 6 h after LPS injec­tion and then returns to basal level within further 12-18 h. Interestingly, in the eye bulb the maximum of NO production was detected 12 h after LPS, and the signal was still pronounced 24 h after LPS. In brief, the highly lipophilic exogenous spin trap, Fe(DETC)2 is well suited for assessment of NO production in endotoxaemia. We dem­onstrated that the kinetics of increased production of NO in endotoxaemic organs, with the notable exception of the eye, do not follow the known pattern of NOS-2 induc­tion under those conditions. Accordingly, only in early endotoxaemia a high level of NO is detected, while in late endotoxaemia NO detectability is diminished most probably due to concomitant oxidant stress.
