SCREENING FOR LIPOLYTIC ENZYME OR AMIDASE ACTIVITY

A method of testing samples for their enzymatic activity for hydrolysis of a particular ester or amide bond in a substrate uses a test substrate with one or more polyunsaturated fatty acyl groups linked through amide or ester bond s. The release of the polyunsaturated fatty acid is detected by the u...

Zusammenfassung:A method of testing samples for their enzymatic activity for hydrolysis of a particular ester or amide bond in a substrate uses a test substrate with one or more polyunsaturated fatty acyl groups linked through amide or ester bond s. The release of the polyunsaturated fatty acid is detected by the use of a lipoxygenase to convert the polyunsaturated fatty acid into a hy-droperoxide which is then detected, e.g. through a color reaction.
