Alternative method for quantification of alfa-amylase activity.
A modification of the sensitive agar diffusion method was developed for macro-scale determination of alfa-amylase. The proposed modifications lower costs with the utilisation of starch as substrate and agar as supporting medium. Thus, a standard curve was built using alfa-amylase solution from Aspergillus oryzae, with concentrations ranging from 2.4 to 7,500 U.mL-1. Clear radial diffusion zones...
متن کاملAn automated, saccharogenic method for determining serum amylase activity.
An automated adaptation of the Somogyl saccharogenic determination of serum amylase is described in which conventional AutoAnalyzer modules are used. Adequate sensitivity with short incubation is achieved by incorporating glucose oxidase and catalase in the substrate to destroy serum glucose during incubation. Maltose and other dialyzable oligosaccharides are measured with the alkaline copper-n...
متن کاملMeasurement of amylase activity.
The Nelson photoelectric method for the determination of glucose in biological fluids (1) has proved to be the method of choice in this laboratory and in many others, owing to its reproducibility, stability of color, and excellent agreement with the Beer-Lambert law. Nelson, however, states that the method is unsuitable for the determination of diastatic activity. Since it is convenient and eco...

متن کاملA novel electrochemical method to determine α-amylase activity.
In this paper, we report a novel electrochemical method that can be developed as a biosensor for simple and direct determination of α-amylase activity. The method is based on the hydrolysis of maltopentaose, the substrate of the enzyme, which is immobilized on the surface of a gold electrode, and the induced charge changes of the substrate-modified electrode. Specifically, the substrate maltope...
