A microspectrophotometric method for the determination of cytochrome oxidase.
The method used by Potter, Albaum, and others (1, 2) for studying the effects of various inhibitors on cytochrome oxidase has been adapted successfully to the assay of the cytochrome oxidase content of rat tissues. The rate of enzymatic oxidation of reduced cytochrome c is measured. A microadaptation enables the measurement of the cytochrome oxidase content of as little as 4 y (wet weight) of a...
متن کاملColorimetric microdetermination of cytochrome c oxidase.
The Nadi reaction, discovered by Ehrlich (1885), has been used for many years as a test for indophenol oxidase. The reaction consists in the formation of indophenol blue from dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine and cr-naphthol and is given by most animal and plant cells. It is now generally held that indophenol oxidase is identical with cytochrome c oxidase, and the Nadi reaction is often employed for ...
متن کاملA colorimetric method for the determination of phenol oxidase in plant material.
Enzymes catalyzing the oxidation of phenols occur widely in plant tissues and have been extensively studied (l-7), but the diversity of their properties and the complexities of the reactions catalyzed have made assays and their interpretations uncertain. In only a few instances have essentially pure enzyme preparations been studied (1, 6, S), and even in these cases the mechanism of oxidation i...
متن کاملA rapid colorimetric method for the quantitative determination of copper oxidase activity (ceruloplasmin).
LOOD OXIDASES HAVE BEEN DESCRIBED and discussed since 1912 based on tedious, elaborate means for the determination of their activity. The physiologic significance of oxidase activity has been implicitly associated with the blue copper protein of plasma designated as ceruloplasmin (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). There appears to be a need for a simple, rapid procedure for the determination of ceruloplasmin ...
متن کاملNew Enzymatic Colorimetric Method for the Quantitative Determination of Phenylalanine in Dry-Blood Spots
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive disorder, which is characterized by severe mental retardation, microcephaly and seizures. The symptoms of this disease can be prevented if detected soon after birth. Therefore, blood Phenylalanine (Phe) measurement is essential for the early diagnosis, treatment and dietary monitoring of PKU patients. The goal of this research was to introduce a r...
