Direct Spectrophotometric Assay for Benzaldehyde Lyase Activity
Benzaldehyde lyase from Pseudomonas fluorescens Biovar I. (BAL, EC 4.1.2.38) is a versatile catalyst for the organic synthesis of chiral α-hydroxy ketones. To allow fast assessment of enzyme activity, a direct spectrophotometric assay is desirable. Here, a new robust and easy-to-handle assay based on UV absorption is presented. The assay developed is based on the ligation of the α-hydroxy keton...
متن کاملSpectrophotometric method for the assay of steroid 5α-reductase activity of rat liver and prostate microsomes.
A simple spectrophotometric method for the assay of steroid 5α-reductase (5α-SR) was developed in which 5α-dihydrotestosterone (5α-DHT) and 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol (5α-diol), metabolites formed in the NADPH-dependent reduction of testosterone with enzyme sources of 5α-SR, were measured by enzymatic cycling using 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in the presence of excess thionicotinamide-adenin...
متن کاملUV Spectrophotometric Assay Method for the Determination of Fluconazole Capsules
A very simple, accurate, rapid and economical UV spectrophotometric method was developed for the estimation of fluconazole. The UV method permits a simple, rapid and economical quantitation of fluconazole in capsule dosage form only. The maximum absorbance of fluconazole was found to be 210 nm. Fluconazole, which is available in Karachi in different brands within the pharmacies, was collected a...
متن کاملThe MAO-Glo Assay: A bioluminescent-coupled assay for monoamine oxidase activity
Although cytochrome P450 enzymes are responsible for the majority of drug metabolism reactions, the monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are arguably the second-most important phase I biotransformation enzymes. MAOs catalyze the oxidative deamination of a number of biogenic and xenobiotic amines to the corresponding aldehydes with consumption of O2 and production of H2O2 (1). These flavoenzymes are locate...
متن کاملA simple and accurate spectrophotometric assay for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity.
The rate of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity measured through the conventional coupled assay with malate dehydrogenase is underestimated due to the instability of oxaloacetate, which undergoes partial decarboxylation into pyruvate in the presence of metal ions. The addition of lactate dehydrogenase to the conventional assay allows the reduction of pyruvate formed from oxaloacetate to la...
