Urease having 1 ~ 5 x 10 2 Km value is produced by culturing a microorganism of the genus Corynebactenum, Breivibacterium, Arthrobacter, Proteus, Microbacterium or Bordetella. The enzyme is useful for the determination of urea in the rate assay method.
摘要:
Urea, creatinine, creatine, triglycerides, or the like in a specimen can be accurately determined by terminating an isocitrate dehydrogenase reaction by addition of a chelating agent in a system wherein NADP + formed from NADPH is reproduced into NADPH in the conjoint presence of an isocitrate, metallic ions such as magnesium or manganese ions, and isocitrate dehydrogenase in assaying a substance by means of a reaction of NADPH to NADP + .

Bei der kolorimetrischen Harnstoffbestimmung in Milch wird die Eignung der Milchprobe durch Ermittlung des Blind wertes nach Abbau des Harnstoffs mittels Urease festgestellt. Bei Blindwerten über 5 mg/100 ml ist die Milchprobe unge eignet.
摘要:
In a method for quantitatively analyzing an analyte in a liquid sample by applying the liquid sample on one of a set of analytical elements and measuring a color developed in the analytical element through reflection photometory in which said set of analytical elements are the same elements as a standard element except for deviation of sensitivity to the analyte, but said deviation of sensitivity is essentially equivalent to each other among the set of analytical elements, the calibration curve of the standard element with respect to said analyte being predetermined, an improvement involving preparation of a linear equation for defining a relationship between an optical reflection density value OD x to be measured on an analytical element belonging to said set of the analytical elements and an optical reflection density value OD s being predetermined on the standard analytical element, in which the optical reflection density values OD x and OD s are those to be determined on colors developed on the respective elements upon application of a liquid sample containing the analyte in the same content C x .
摘要:
A urea assay mixture, particularly for use in the determination of urea in physiological fluids such as blood, which comprises urease and glutamate dehydrogenase enzymes from the same micro-organism source together with cofactors. The application also discloses a process for the production of the mixture, a method for the purification together of the enzymes urease and glutamate dehydrogenase and a method for testing for urea in a fluid using the assay mixture.
摘要:
A device for performing a plurality of immunochemical assays simultaneously comprises a waste reservoir (11) about which are positioned at least two assay tubes (16) connected in series by means of conduits (32) (38) formed in the base (12,30) and top (25) of the reservoir structure. A compound syringe (20) is insertable into an opening (29) formed through the top of the waste reservoir, the syringe being held in place by a receiving structure (47) formed in the base of the reservoir and connected to the entrance end of the series of assay tubes. The various compartments of the compound syringe are emptied in sequence to cause the flow of sample and assay reagents to flow through the assay tubes. The device is structured to allow for the reflow of sample through the tubes if desired.
摘要:
The quantity of ammonia in a sample to be measured for ammonia content can be determined by: (A) contacting the sample with L-glutamate dehydrogenase in the presence of reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide or reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate and a-ketoglutarate to produce glutamate in a quantity corresponding to the ammonia content in the sample; (B) catalyzing the resultant mixture by L-glutamate oxidase in the presence of oxygen to produce hydrogen peroxide in a quantity corresponding to the glutamate content in the resultant mixture; (C) measuring the quantity of hydrogen peroxide produced or the production rate thereof; and (D) calculating the ammonia content from the quantity of hydrogen peroxide produced or the production rate thereof thus measured. In accordance with the method of the present invention described above, it has become possible to determine the quantity of ammonia with high sensitivity in a short period of time by using as a signal a measurable value associated with hydrogen peroxide via a continuous autoanalyzing system.
摘要:
A composition, device and method useful as an enzymatic urea assay based on the use of urea amidolyase comprising urea amidolyase, pyruvate kinase, pyruvate oxidase, mono and divalent cations, phosphoenol pyruvate, thyamine pyrophosphate, ATP, bicarbonate, phosphate, a color indicator system and optionally inorganic phosphate, a buffer having a pH range of from about 6.5 to 9.5, and sodium or potassium ferrocyanide.
