摘要:
The present invention provides a simple method for the determination of a specific component, e.g. 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) in a sample containing glucose, and a reagent and a reagent kit useful in the method. In one embodiment, a method for the determination of 1, 5-AG is provided which comprises contacting the sample with an enzyme system which converts glucose into fructose-1,6-diphosphate and converts 1,5-AG into 1,5-AG-6-phosphate to form 1,5-AG-6-phosphate, dehydrogenating 1,5-AG-6-phosphate in the sample by the action of 1,5-AG-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in the presence of an oxidized coenzyme, and measuring the amount of the reduced coenzyme formed by the dehydrogenation reaction. A reagent and a reagent kit useful in this method are also provided.

摘要:
The invention provides a method of identifying a microorganism that expresses a nucleic acid-modifying enzyme, in sample, the method comprising: (a) contacting a nucleic acid substrate targeted by the nucleic acid-modifying enzyme with the sample; (b) adding a further nucleic acid molecule to the sample which nucleic acid molecule is ligated to the nucleic acid substrate in the presence of the nucleic acid-modifying enzyme to form a ligation product which comprises a linear single strand of nucleic acid that is capable of being detected; and (c) detecting the presence of the ligation product.
