APPLICATIONS

This enzyme is useful for enzymatic determination of glucose, and for an amylase-activity assay in combination with α-glucosidase (AGH-211, if maltooligosaccharide or modified starch is used as a substrate), in clinical analysis.

Principle

Principle

4-AA : 4-Aminoantipyrine

EHSPT : N-Ethyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfopropyl)-m-toluidine

The formation of quinoneimine dye is measured at 555 nm by spectrophotometry.

Unit definition

One unit catalyzes the formation of one micromole of hydrogen peroxide (half a micromole of quinoneimine dye) per minute under the conditions detailed below.

Method

Reagents

A. MES-Na buffer pH 5.7 0.1 M: Dissolve 2.13 g of 2-(N-morpholino) ethansulfonic acid (MW = 213.25) in approx. 60 mL of H2O and, after adjusting the pH to 5.7 with 1 N NaOH at 25℃, make up to 100 mL with H2O (stable at 5℃ for 1 month).
B. Glucose solution 15 %: Dissolve 1.5 g of β-D-glucose in H2O, and make up to 10 mL, at least 2 hours before, but on the same day as, the assay.
C. 4-AA solution 0.5 %: 50 mg of 4-aminoantipyrine (MW = 203.25) / 10 mL of H2O (stable at 5℃ in a brownish bottle for at least 1 week).
D. EHSPT solution 40 mM: 118 mg of N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfopropyl)-m-toluidine (MW = 295.3) / 10 mL of H2O (stable at 5℃ in a brownish bottle for at least 1 week).
E. Peroxidase solution 500 purpurogalin units (U) /mL H2O
F. Enzyme diluent 10 mM MES-Na buffer, pH 5.7, containing 0.1 % Triton X-100

Procedure

1.Prepare the following working solution in a brownish bottle and store on ice.

(Should be prepared fresh)
30 mL Buffer solution (A)
6.0 mL Substrate solution (B)
0.3 mL 4-AA solution (C)
0.3 mL EHSPT solution (D)
0.3 mL POD solution (E)
Concentration in assay mixture
MES buffer 79 mM
D-glucose 131 mM
4-AA 0.2 mM
EHSPT 0.3 mM
POD ca.4 U/ml

2.Pipette 3.0 mL of working solution into a cuvette (d = 1.0cm) and equilibrate at 37 ℃ for approximately 5 minutes.

3.Add 0.1 mL of the enzyme solution* and mix by gentle inversion.

4.Record the increase in optical density at 555 nm against water for 2 to 3 minutes with a spectrophotometer thermostated at 37 ℃, and calculate the ΔOD per minute from the initial linear portion of the curve (ΔOD test).

At the same time, measure the blank rate (ΔOD blank) using the same method as the test, except that enzyme diluent (F) is added instead of the enzyme solution.

*Dissolve the enzyme preparation in ice cold enzyme diluent (F) and dilute to 0.05−0.2 U/mL with the same buffer, immediately before the assay.

Calculation

Activity can be calculated by using the following formula :

  • Volume activity (U/mL) =

  • ΔOD/min (ΔOD test−ΔOD blank)×Vt×df


    32.8×1/2×1.0×Vs

  • = ΔOD/min×1.89×df

Weight activity (U/mg) = (U/mL)×1/C

Vt : Total volume (3.1 mL)
Vs : Sample volume (0.1 mL)
32.8 : Millimolar extinction coefficient of quinoneimine dye under the assay conditions (cm2/micromole)
1/2 : Factor based on the fact that one mole of H2O2 produces a half of quinoneimine dye.
1.0 : Light path length (cm)
df : Dilution factor
C : Enzyme concentration in dissolution (c mg/mL)
