We wish to report a new method for the assay of arginase (L-arginine amidinohydrolase, EC 3.5.3.1). Arginase, the terminal enzyme of the urea-ornithine cycle (1)) catalyzes the cleavage of arginine to ornithine and urea. Present assays for arginase determine the released urea either by a calorimetri
We describe a convenient and sensitive assay of polyphenol oxidase (PPO, EC 1.14 .18 .1 ) consisting of spectrophotometry at \(300 \mathrm{~nm}\) based on the stoichiometric reaction of cysteine with o-quinones produced during the enzymatic oxidation of phenols. The adduct formed exhibited spectral
