The reaction rate of ATP-limited firefly luciferase-catalysed reactions, is affected by the presence o f detergents. Anionic detergents inhibit luciferase activity without causing significant enzyme inactivation during the reaction. Cationic detergents in- crease reaction rate several-fold w i t h a
A bioluminescence procedure for measurement of microbial ATP allows a rapid determination of the effectiveness of autoclave sterilization. This determination is achieved faster than detection of acid production in a biological indicator via a pH indicator. Bacterial outgrowth from spores on test str
The bioluminescent reaction catalysed by firefly luciferase has become widely established as an outstanding analytical system for assay of ATP. When used in solution, luciferase is unstable and cannot be re-used, a problem that can be partially circumvented by immobilizing the enzyme on solid substr
