We have found that 0.5-1mM NADPH will inhibit the Griess color reaction slightly. If this amount of NADPH is present the sample ODs can be artificially but modestly depressed. In order to determine the dilution necessary, a serial dilution of a spiked sample can be run. If there is no interference, the recoveries will be linear.
