Elimination of the "chromogen oxidase" activity of bilirubin oxidase added to obviate bilirubin interference in hydrogen peroxide/peroxidase detecting systems.

چکیده

The use of bilirubin oxidase to remove interference by bilirubin in hydrogen peroxide/peroxidase detecting systems is hampered by its inherent "chromogen oxidase" activity (its ability to oxidize the chromogens used in the systems). This unwanted activity is greater than 99% inhibited by 0.5 mmol/L cyanide, 97% inhibited by 20 mmol/L azide. At these same concentrations, they inhibit bilirubin oxidase activity by 95% and 73%, respectively. Sequential addition of reagents allows the use of bilirubin oxidase without interference by the chromogen oxidase activity.

Spectrophotometric or fluorometric methods with glucose oxidase (GOD)–peroxidase (POD)–chromogen(s) systems

oxidase (GOD)–peroxidase (POD)–chromogen(s) systems are well known as useful tools for determination of glucose. Indicator reactions in these methods are based on oxidative formation of a colored or fluorescent substance from a chromogen(s) with H2O2, generated through GODcatalyzed oxidation of glucose, in the presence of POD. These color reactions are well-characterized chemical processes. How...

Simple enzymatic assay for determining cholesterol concentrations in bile.

We use bilirubin oxidase (EC 1.3.3.5) to remove interference by bilirubin in the assay of cholesterol concentration in bile by standard enzymatic methods. Samples are treated for 10 min with nonlimiting amounts of bilirubin oxidase to form biliverdin from bilirubin before the reagent for cholesterol is added. The relatively small interference by biliverdin is easily eliminated by use of sample ...

Bilirubin interference in a peroxidase-coupled procedure for creatinine eliminated by bilirubin oxidase.

A colorimetric peroxidase-coupled procedure for determination of creatinine in human serum and urine is described. A 30-s sample pre-treatment with bilirubin oxidase eliminates interference from endogenous bilirubin. The 4-aminoantipyrine-2-hydroxy-3,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonate chromogen system of this method is about fourfold more sensitive than current procedures that involve monitoring NAD(P)...

A Peroxidase-linked Spectrophotometric Assay for the Detection of Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors

To develop a new more accurate spectrophotometric method for detecting monoamine oxidase inhibitors from plant extracts, a series of amine substrates were selected and their ability to be oxidized by monoamine oxidase was evaluated by the HPLC method and a new substrate was used to develop a peroxidase-linked spectrophotometric assay. 4-(Trifluoromethyl) benzylamine (11) was proved to be an exc...
