acid dehydrogenase, LAD, in concentrations as low as 0.000470 unit per ml. (Table I).This reaction was also first order with respect to diaphorase in concentrations of 0.0004 to 0.080 unit per ml. of solution, and to resazurin (10^to 10_6ilf). Hence the concentrations of these materials may be easily determined by this technique. Also, the rate of formation of resorufin was proportional to the NAD+ concentrations in the region 10~w to 10-7M, thus allowing an easy, direct determination of the quantity of this eoenzyme present. By the use of ethyl alcohol as substrate, the quantity of alcohol dehydrogenase as low as 0.000303 unit per ml. may be determined.Full details on the systems described herein, as well as application to other systems, will be given in an article to follow.
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.
