We describe a quantitative assay for diaminopimelic acid (DAP) in urine. It involves (i) hydrolysis of urine samples, (ii) purification by several different liquid chromatography steps, and (iii) analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography on a reversed-phase C18 column. Tritiated-DAP, the in

An HPLC method has been developed for the assay of cytidine monophosphate-sialic acid synthetase (EC 2.7.7.43) using ion-pair chromatography and gradient elution. This procedure permits the assay of alternative substrates and inhibitors of the enzyme and is not subject to the limitation of the color
The activity of peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) has generally been assayed by a colorimetric method using N-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester (BAEE) and Nbenzoyl-L-arginine (Bz-L-Arg) as the substrates. The widespread occurrence of citrulline and urea in tissues makes use of this method difficult, esp
A method for the maximum recovery of prostaglandins from brain tissue with simultaneous recovery of neutral lipids and phospholipids was developed. Hexane:2-propanol was used to extract lipids from bovine brain. This method, which does not require a washing step to remove nonlipid contaminants, was
