چکیده

1. Peroxidase has been assayed by a chronometric method involving the coupled reaction of ascorbic acid with the product of the enzymic action on benzidine. 2. Measurements of the activities of horseradish and tea peroxidase by this and two other methods, involving respectively pyrogallol and o-dianisidine, are compared. 3. It is claimed that the chronometric method is relatively simple, rapid and accurate. 4. The method can be used in the presence of polyphenol oxidases.

Screening actinomycetes for extracellular peroxidase activity.

A diverse collection of actinomycete strains were screened for production of extracellular peroxidase activity by adapting a chemiluminescence analysis system developed for horseradish peroxidase-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Extracellular peroxidase activity was found to be common but quantitatively variable, and this rapid and sensitive screening system permitted identification of ...

Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticle peroxidase mimetic-based colorimetric assay for the rapid detection of organophosphorus pesticide and nerve agent.

Rapid and sensitive detection methods are in urgent demand for the screening of extensively used organophosphorus pesticides and highly toxic nerve agents for their neurotoxicity. In this study, we developed a novel Fe(3)O(4) magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) peroxidase mimetic-based colorimetric method for the rapid detection of organophosphorus pesticides and nerve agents. The detection assay is co...

Improved assay method for activity of thyroid peroxidase-catalysed coupling of iodotyrosine residues of thyroglobulin utilizing h.p.l.c. for analysis of iodothyronines.

The coupling of iodotyrosine residues of thyroglobulin (Tg) catalysed by thyroid peroxidase (TPO) has scarcely been studied with respect to the TPO of abnormal human thyroid glands. The present paper proposes a rapid and convenient assay method applicable for determining the coupling activity of a sample of less than 500 mg from each patient's thyroid. The main characteristics of the method are...
