Assay
Principle
The assay is based on the increase in absorbance at 340nm as the formation of NADH proceeds in the following reactions:
PNPL Ⅱ | ||
Inorganic phosphate+Inosine | → | Hypoxanthine+D–Ribose 1–phosphate |
XDH Ⅱ | ||
Hypoxanthine+NAD+ | → | Xanthine+NADH+H+ |
XDH Ⅱ | ||

Enzyme solution
-
Dilute accurately 0.5 ml of the sample with enzyme dilution buffer to make a 50–fold solution. Dilute with enzyme dilution buffer to adjust the concentration as required.
Procedure
- Pipette accurately 3.0 ml of reaction mixture into a small test tube and preincubate at 37℃.
- After 5 min, add 50 μl of enzyme solution and mix to start the reaction at 37℃.
※ In the case of a test blank, add 50 μl of enzyme dilution buffer in place of enzyme solution. - After starting the reaction, measure the rate of increase per minute in absorbance at 340 nm. The rate must be measured within the linear portion of the absorbance curve.
Absorbance sample : As/min blank : Ab/min

6.22 : millimolar extinction coefficient of NADH at 340 nm ( cm2 /μmole)2 : a multiplier derived from the fact that 1 mole of inorganic phosphate produces 2 mole of NADH. 3.05 : final volume (ml) 0.05 : volume of enzyme solution (ml) D : times of dilution in enzyme solution
Storage
-
Storage at -20℃ in the presence of a desiccant is recommended.

酵素試料液
- 検品0.5ml を酵素溶解希釈用液で50 倍に希釈する。
- 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3.0ml を正確に分注して37℃で予備加温する。
- 5 分経過後、酵素試料液50 μl を加えて混和し、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50 μl を加える。 - 反応開始後、340nm における吸光度を測定して直線的に反応している1 分間当たりの吸光度変化を求める。
求められた吸光度変化を試料液はAs/min、盲検液はAb/min とする。
ΔA/min = (As/min-Ab/min) ≦ 0.045 Abs/min
