摘要:
A group of compounds having the following general formula can be obtained by reacting chromoprotein and organic acid: ##STR1## wherein X is a chromophore, P is a protein, NH.sub.2 is mainly .epsilon.-amino group of lysine, n is a positive integer of 1 to 18, and m is a positive integer in the relation of m.ltoreq.n. This compound group has one to eighteen organic acids bonded thereto, and shows various isoelectric points in accordance with the number of the organic acids, but the respective isoelectric points are maintained constant. If such compounds each having an individual isoelectric point, are used as isoelectric point markers, it is possible to recognize accurately the position of isoelectric point only by a visual operation.

Isoelectric point markers for a gel isoelectric separation are prepared to comprise at least two colored proteins of which the isoelectric point pHs are known and wherein the difference between the highest value and the lowest value among the said pHs is not less than 0.5. The markers are applied to analyze proteins in a gel isoelectric separation method. The method employing the said markers makes it easy to analyze proteins and shows an excellent performance.

1,6-Dihydro nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide inhibits both H-type lactic dehydrogenase and M-type lactic dehydrogenase which are isoenzymes of lactic dehydrogenase, but the degree of inhibition thereof against H-type considerably differs from that against M-type. A ratio of H-type lactic dehydrogenase to M-type lactic dehydrogenase in serum can be measured by utilizing the difference of inhibition degree. Therefore we can diagnose the organ with trouble.

Urea, creatinine, creatine, triglycerides, or the like in a specimen can be accurately determined by terminating an isocitrate dehydrogenase reaction by addition of ATP and/or a chelating agent in a system wherein NAD.sup.+ formed from NADH is reproduced into NADH 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 NADH to NAD.sup.+.

This invention relates to an enzyme assay for quantitative analysis of biochemical substances using NAD(P)-NAD(P)H system and utilizing hydrogen peroxide, in which isocitric acid, metal ions and isocitrate dehydrogenase are previously added to a test sample, thereby consuming the endogenous substances that interfere the analysis, and at the same time regenerating NAD(P)H reduced.The isocitrate dehydrogenase is then inactivated by addition of a chelating agent, an enzyme or substrate that generates hydrogen peroxide as reaction product is added simultaneously or thereafter, and the amount of hydrogen peroxide thus formed is measured.Biochemical substances that generate hydrogen peroxide as reaction product can be correctly analyzed by this method with no adverse effect of endogenous substances because these interfering substances have been removed prior to measurement.

Disclosed is a method of assaying the content of Mg ions in a human body fluid such as serum, urine or saliva by the use of a reactant solution containing isocitrate dehydrogenase, NADP.sup.+, isocitrate and an excess amount of a chelating agent. Almost all Mg ions as existing in a human body fluid sample to be examined are bonded with the chelating agent, and the remaining Mg ions react with NADP.sup.+ to form NADPH. Increase of the thus formed NADPH is measured to obtain a standard curve of a straight line, and the content of Mg ions in the same is determined on the basis of the standard curve. If such an excess amount of a Mg-chelating agent is not added to the reactant solution, the intended standard could not be in the form of a straight line but is in the form of a tangent curve. Using the tangent curve, the content of Mg ions in the human body fluid sample cannot be assayed accurately.

This invention relates to a method of diagnosing cancerous diseases, which comprises measuring the amount of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:glycoprotein N-acetylglucosaminyl-transferase in body fluid and evaluating the increase in its amount for the diagnosis of hepatic diseases.AFP, CEA and .gamma.-glutamyltranspeptidase have hitherto been used as tumor markers for the diagnosis of hepatic cancer. But these conventional tumor markers show a positivity rate of about 60%, making early diagnosis almost impossible.The method of this invention employs UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:glycoprotein N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase as tumor marker, whereby early diagnosis of hepatic cancer can be made almost completely.
