A new assay technique for catechol-0-methyltransferase is described. 3,4-Dihydroxyacetophenone is used as the substrate for the assay and the products, 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyacetophenone and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyacetophenone are detected spectrophotometrically at 344 nm in borate buffer, pH 10.0.

An automated flow-injection stopped-flow kinetic spectrofluorimetric method for determination of lactase activity is proposed. It is based on the oxidation of o-phenylenediamine (1,Zdiaminobenzene) catalysed by lactase during the stopped-flow period, yielding 2,3-diaminophenazine, which is determin
A new method for the analysis of tetrahydroisoquinolines (TIQ) from biological materials is described. The method combines extraction and acylation of the TIQs from urine in a one-step procedure followed by analysis by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. By this extractive derivatization method, a
