A modified and updated description of the author's method for the assay of intestinal disaccharidases. The principle of the method is the following: an intestinal homogenate is incubated with the appropriate disaccharide. The disaccharidase activity is then interrupted by the addition of TRIS, and the glucose liberated is measured with a glucose oxidase reagent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
