## Abstract A new type of fluorescence assay for the determination of peroxidase (POx) activity is presented. The assay is based on the indication of the enzymatic consumption of H~2~O~2~ (HP), using a fluorescent europium–tetracycline (Eu~3~TC) complex as indicator. On addition of HP, this complex

✦ Synopsis
The method proposed for measuring glutathione peroxydase (GSH-Px) activity is based on the determination of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) using o-phtalaldehyde (OPT) as a fluorescent reagent. This method makes it possible to study the kinetics of both substrates (peroxide and reduced ghrtathione, GSH), and allosteric kinetics were found for GSH. with human platelets as the source of GSH-Px. Different methods for platelet disruption were compared. The reference values obtained for GSH-Px activity in human blood platelets by this fluorimetric procedure and the conventional enzymatic method were very similar and significantly higher than those previously reported; the reasons for this difference are discussed.
