Improved radioenzymatic assay for spectinomycin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The sensitivity and reproducibility of the radioenzymatic adenylylating assay for spectinomycin were improved by modifications of the assay procedure and by partial purification of the enzyme. The presence of Bacillus subtilis ribosomes or S-150 fraction in the enzymatic reaction mixture interfered with the ability to measure spectinomycin by this method.

Improved acetylating radioenzymatic assay of amikacin, tobramycin, and sisomicin in serum.
The acetylating radioenzymatic assay of aminoglycosides was modified by using [(3)H]acetyl coenzyme A as cosubstrate. This modification reduces the cost of the method by at least one-half without sacrificing rapidity or accuracy.
متن کاملRadioenzymatic assay of catecholamines in plasma after a preliminary solvent extraction compared with an analogous liquid-chromatographic method.
Catechol-borate complexation and ion-pair formation combined with organic solvent extraction as preliminaries to radioenzymatic assay (REA) with catechol-O-methyltransferase-catalyzed methylation allows the quantification of catecholamines in plasma samples of any volume. We attained improved detection limits for 1-mL samples: 9 ng/L for norepinephrine (NE), 8 ng/L for epinephrine (E), and 11 n...
متن کاملComparison of enzymatic and liquid chromatographic chloramphenicol assays.
A radioenzymatic assay and a "high-performance" liquid chromatographic assay for chloramphenicol were compared by using 52 patient specimens, 24 mock unknowns, and 13 quality control samples. Both methods were found to be rapid, precise, accurate, and sensitive, and either would be suitable for monitoring chloramphenicol concentrations in small volumes of serum. Linear regression analysis of se...
متن کاملRadioimmunoassay and radioenzymatic assay of a new aminoglycoside antibiotic, netilmicin.
A radioimmunoassay and a radioenzymatic assay for netilmicin, a new aminoglycoside, were developed in our laboratories to assist in the study of the pharmacology of the drug and to establish values for use in its monitoring. The assays are sensitive, precise, and rapid, giving results that correlate (r = 0.90) with each other and with those of a microbiological assay in which Klebsiella pneumon...
متن کاملA simple and highly sensitive radioenzymatic assay for lysophosphatidic acid quantification.
The objective of the present work was to develop a simple and sensitive radioenzymatic assay to quantify lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). For that, a recombinant rat LPA acid acyltransferase (LPAAT) produced in Escherichia coli was used. In the presence of [(14)C]oleoyl-CoA, LPAAT selectively catalyzes the transformation of LPA and alkyl-LPA into [(14)C]phosphatidic acid. Acylation of LPA was compl...
