Assay
Principle
-
The assay is based on the increase in absorbance at 550 nm as the formation of formazane dye (NTBH2) proceeds in the following reaction:

Enzyme solution
- Accurately weigh about 20 mg of the sample and add enzyme dilution buffer to make a total of 20 ml. Dilute it with enzyme dilution buffer to adjust the concentration as required.
Procedure
- Pipette accurately 1.0 ml of reaction mixture into a small test tube and preincubate at 37℃.
- After 5 min, add exactly 100 μl of enzyme solution and mix to start the reaction at 37℃.
※ In the case of a test blank, add 100 μl of enzyme dilution buffer in place of enzyme solution. - At 10 min after starting the reaction, add 2.0 ml of the reaction stopper to stop the reaction.
- Measure the absorbance at 550 nm.
Absorbance sample : As blank : Ab
Calculation
- Activity (U/mg of powder) = {(△A/10)/12.4} × 3.10/0.10 × 1/x

Storage
-
Storage at − 20℃ in the presence of a desiccant is recommended. Enzyme activity will be retained for at least one year under this condition.

酵素試料液
- 検品約20mg を精密に量り、酵素溶解希釈用液に溶解して全容20ml とする。
その液を酵素溶解希釈用液で適宜希釈する。
測定操作法
- 小試験管に反応試薬混合液1.0ml を正確に分注し、37℃で予備加温する。
- 5 分経過後、酵素試料液100 μl を正確に加えて混和し、37℃で反応を開始する。
※ 盲検は酵素試料液の代わりに酵素溶解希釈用液100 μl を加える。 - 10 分経過後、反応停止液2.0ml を正確に加えて混和し、反応を停止させる。
- 550nm における吸光度を測定する。
求められた吸光度を試料液はAs、盲検液はAb とする。
ΔA = (As-Ab) ≦ 0.370 Abs
