The hexokinase/glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase coupled enzyme system was used to assay for plant thioglucoside glucohydrolase (myrosinase, EC 3.2.3.1) by measuring the rate of glucose released during hydrolysis of glucosinolates. This coupled assay was compared with two other assays for myrosinase
&Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) synthetase activities in the range of 0.1 to 100 U/ml of enzyme are routinely assayed using a modified Beckman Model 121 amino acid analyzer. This method reproducibly and specifically quantitates [Wlaminolevulinate from a mixture of [Wlsuccinate metabolites known to interf
A procedure to quantitate picomole amounts of hydroperoxides based on GSSG formation is described. Hydroperoxides are incubated with GSH and glutathione peroxidase, and the GSSG formed is measured by a GSSG-specific glutathione reductase recycling assay. Prior to analysis the remaining GSH is remove
We developed a simple, kinetic method for the determination of catalase activity in which i) the enzyme catalyzes the peroxidation of ethanol by hydrogen peroxide to acetaldehyde and water, and ii) the acetaldehyde so formed is rapidly oxidized to acetic acid and NADPH by the addition of an excess o
