Using a 1,5-anhydroglucitol dehydrogenase capable of acting on 1,5-anhydroglucitol and directly catalyzing a reducing chromophoric agent in the absence of an electron carrier, the 1,5-anhydroglucitol dehydrogenase is allowed to act on 1,5-anhydroglucitol in the presence of the reducing chromophoric agent preferably after the glucose in the specimen has been changed, or while being changed, into such a structure that it does not react with the 1,5-anhydroglucitol dehydrogenase in the specimen, by the aid of a glucose eliminator. Then, the amount of the resultant reduced colored substance is measured. As the 1,5-anhydroglucitol dehydrogenase, an enzyme produced by a microorganism having the ability to produce the 1,5-anhydroglucitol dehydrogenase is preferably used.

摘要:
The present invention provides a method for quantitatively determining hydrogen sulfide or sulfide ions conveniently with high sensitivity, which comprises adding to a sample containing hydrogen sulfide or sulfide ions, metal ions or a compound which liberates said metal ions and a metal indicator which reacts with the metal ions and resultingly undergoes color development, wherein the color development is accelerated or inhibited by the hydrogen sulfide or sulfide ions; and measuring the degree of color development of the metal indicator. The present invention further provides a method for quantitatively determining a specific substance, which comprises adding to a sample containing a specific substance, a component which acts on the specific substance so that the specific substance forms hydrogen sulfide or sulfide ions, metal ions or a compound which liberates said metal ions, and a metal indicator which reacts with the metal ions and resultingly undergoes color development, wherein the color development is accelerated or inhibited by the hydrogen sulfide or sulfide ions; and measuring the degree of color development of the metal indicator.
