โฆ Synopsis
A procedure to quantitate trace amounts of elastase in tissue or cell homogenate preparations is described. The procedure is a modification of a method employing NaB3H,-reduced elastin and it does not restrict assay volume. The assay is specific and can distinguish between pancreatic elastase and trypsin or chymotrypsin, both of which solubilize small amounts of the substrate. Pancreatic elastase remains active in this assay system for at least 4 weeks.
