    [0065] (2) Reagents and instruments:

    [0066] Reagents: 8-oxidized guanosine (purity>98%), purchased from ALEXIS Company, the United States; 8-oxidized deoxyguanosine (purity>98%), purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, the United States; [.sup.13C, .sup.15N.sub.2]8-oxidized guanosine (purity>98%), purchased from Toronto Research Chemical Company, Canada; [.sup.15N.sub.5]8-oxidized deoxyguanosine (purity>98%), purchased from Cambridge Isotope Laboratory, the United States; creatinine detection kit, purchased from Beijing Jiuqiang Biotechnology Company, China; methanol (HPLC grade), purchased from Merck, Germany; isopropanol (HPLC grade), purchased from Merck, Germany; formic acid (HPLC grade), purchased from Merck, Germany; ammonium acetate (HPLC grade), purchased from Fisher Technology, USA;

    [0067] Chromatography column: Agilent SB-Aq, 3.0100 mm, 1.8 m

    [0068] Instrument: the instrument used for HPLC-MS/MS analysis was an Agilent LC (1290) tandem mass spectrometer (6490) instrument.

    [0069] (3) Determination method:

    [0070] 3 ml of middle urine in random urine was collected, evenly divided into 3 parts and placed into 1.5 ml EP tubes, and stored in a refrigerator at 80 C. until testing. The treatment of urine samples was as follows:

    [0071] 1. A urine sample was thawed and centrifuged at 7,500 g for 5 min at 4 C.

    [0072] 2. 200 L of the supernatant was pipetted into a 1.5 ml autoclaved centrifuge tube. 200 L of working solution A [70% methanol+30% 10 mM ammonium acetate (PH=3.7)] was added; and the working solution was used to precipitate proteins present in the urine.

    [0073] 3. 480 pg/L isotope internal standard [.sup.13C, .sup.15N.sub.2]8-oxo-dGsn and 480 pg/L isotope internal standard [.sup.15N.sub.5]8-oxoGsn, each 10 L, were added, mixed by votex for 2 min; the internal standards were used for the correction of measuring instrument errors.

    [0074] 4. After being placed in a 37 C. biochemical incubator for 10 minutes, centrifugation was carried out at 12000 g and 4 C. for 15 minutes; this step allowed the 8-oxoG combined with the precipitate to be released.

    [0075] 5. 100 ul was taken and added into a disposable intubation tube, loaded into a sample bottle, and subjected to mass spectrometry sequence detection.

    [0076] 6. The standard 8-oxoG was detected by HPLC-MS/MS, and a standard curve of 8-oxoG concentration versus intensity was prepared. At the same time, the intensity of 8-oxoG in the sample was detected by HPLC-MS/MS, and the concentration of 8-oxoG in the sample was calculated against the standard curve.

    [0077] 7. The creatinine concentration in the sample was measured with a Hitachi biochemical detector; which was used to correct the effect of different dilution levels of urine on the results.

    [0078] II. Results

    [0079] See FIG. 1 and Table 1 (creatinine-corrected mean values and percentiles of 8-oxoGsn in the reference population). A large sample study found that, for normal humans aged 20 to 74, regardless of gender, the 8-oxoGsn content had a positive correlation with the age, and could be used as an age-related indicator. Compared with normal humans, the level of 8-oxoGsn in patients with diseases was higher than that in normal humans, and the higher values, the more meaningful. Therefore, the 0-95 percentile of each age group was used as the reference interval for normal humans (see Table 1 for 0-95% reference interval for each age group).

    [0095] II. Results

    [0096] The results were shown in FIG. 2 and Table 2 (the numbers and percentages of patients with various diseases that were of above the 95th percentile of the reference interval for normal humans), and for the 8-oxoGsn in urine samples of patients with seven diseases (AIDS, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, liver cancer, coronary heart disease, acute coronary syndrome), a comparative study was performed between the results of the seven diseases and the reference interval of 8-oxoGsn for normal humans, and it was found that the levels of 8-oxoGsn in urine samples of patients with various diseases were significantly increased compared to that of the normal humans (see Table 2 and FIG. 2 for details), and at least 60% of the patients of each disease had higher values than the interval for normal humans. In particular, for the bacterial and viral infectious diseases, the proportion of number of patients having a value higher than the interval for normal humans was as high as about 90%, while chronic diseases such as syphilis, AIDS, hepatitis B, etc., come next, which proved that the increase of 8-oxoGsn was correlated with the diseases.

    [0107] 3. 480 pg/L isotope internal standard [.sup.13C, .sup.15N.sub.2]8-oxo-dGsn and 480 pg/L isotope internal standard [.sup.15N.sub.5]8-oxoGsn, each 10 L, were added, mixed by votex for 2 min; the internal standards were used for the correction of measuring instrument errors.

    [0108] 4. After being placed in a 37 C. biochemical incubator for 10 minutes, centrifugation was carried out at 12000 g and 4 C. for 15 minutes; this step allowed the 8-oxoG combined with the precipitate to be released.

    [0112] II. Results

    [0113] The results were shown in FIG. 3 and Table 3 (the physical discomfort records of the 8 healthy volunteers on the days for collecting 25 urine samples were assessed), and when the final test results of each volunteer's urine were compared with the corresponding upper limit of the 95th percentile of the reference interval for normal humans, it was found that most of the time points where the values were above the upper limit of the interval for normal humans corresponded to the special statuses of the day, such as illness, excessive fatigue, staying up late, strenuous exercise and the like. The above results fully reflected the high sensitivity of the level of 8-oxoGsn in urine, that was, as long as a normal healthy person felt an uncomfortable symptom, especially a state of disease, whose level would increase correspondingly, so that this could reflect a health status of a human to a certain extent. In addition, it was found in this experiment that the level of RNA oxidation in a human who exercised regularly was significantly lower than those who did not exercise, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, the healthy humans Nos. 201 and 202 basically maintained their 8-oxoGsn levels in urine below the upper limit of the 95th percentile of the reference interval for normal humans.

    Embodiment 5: Reagent for Identifying Marker 8-oxoGsn and Use Thereof

    [0137] I. Kit Composition

    [0138] 1. 8-oxoGsn standard, used to prepare a standard curve of 8-oxoGsn concentration versus intensity.

    [0139] 2. 10 mM ammonium acetate and pure methanol: used to prepare a working solution [70% methanol+30% 10 mM ammonium acetate (PH=3.7)]; which could also be a directly prepared 70% methanol+30% 10 mM ammonium acetate solution (pH was 3.5-4.0), that was, the working solution in this kit was prepared from methanol and 10 mM ammonium acetate solution in a volume ratio of 7:3.

    [0140] 3. 500 pg/L isotope internal standard [.sup.13C, .sup.15N.sub.2]8-oxo-dGsn and 500 pg/L isotope internal standard [.sup.15N.sub.5]8-oxoGsn.

    [0141] II. Use for Determining Health Status

    [0142] 1. Detecting a marker in a sample of a subject, wherein the marker was level of 8-oxoGsn;

    [0143] 2. The marker was compared with a reference (the 95% confidence interval value for normal humans obtained in Example 1), and the difference of the marker compared with the reference was used to evaluate the health status of the subject.

    [0144] 3. The following explained how to compare the marker with the reference (the 95% reference interval value for normal humans obtained in Example 1) for evaluating the health status of the subject: among the 25 tests for the urine samples collected from the healthy volunteers, the marker concentrations obtained from the 25 urine tests were compared with the upper limit of the 95% reference interval for normal humans in the age group. Above 95% reference interval indicated that the subject was in a state of high oxidative stress. The concentrations of most or all of the 25 urine markers were higher than the 95% reference interval, indicating that the subject was in an unhealthy state with persistent high oxidative stress, and intervention was needed. Based on the physical discomfort records of the subjects (see Table 3), the effects of exogenous and endogenous pathogenic factors on 8-oxoGsn levels in human urine were identified, and the main factors that caused the increase of 8-oxoGsn level were screened, and real-time assessment of human health was performed to achieve the purpose of early warning of human sub-health and disease.
