APPLICATIONS

This enzyme is useful for enzymatic determination of D-Glucose.

ASSAY

Principle:

glucose dehydrogenase

ß-D-Glucose+NAD⁺                                  D-Glucono-δ-lactone+NADH+H⁺

The appearance of NADH is measured at 340nm by spectrophotometry.

Unit definition:

One unit causes the formation of one micromole of NADH per minute under the conditions described below.

Method:

Reagents
A. Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.0 0.1M
B. D-Glucose solution 1.5M
C. ß-NAD⁺ solution 80mg/ml
D. Enzyme diluent 50mM K-phosphate buffer, pH 7.0 contg. 0.1% BSA

Procedure

Concentration in assay mixture
Tris-HCl buffer 85.25mM
D-Glucose 147.54mM
NAD⁺ 3.66mM

1. Prepare the following reaction mixture in a cuvette (d=1.0cm) and equilibrate at 37℃ for about 5 minutes.

2.6 ml Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.0 (A)
0.3ml Substrate solution (B)
0.1ml ß-NAD⁺ solution(C)


2. Add 0.05ml of the enzyme solution* and mix by gentle inversion

3. Record the increase in optical density at 340nm against water for 2 to 5 minutes in a spectrophotometer
thermostated at 37℃, and calculate theΔOD per minute from the initial linear portion of the curve (ΔOD test).
At the same time, measure the blank rate (ΔOD blank) by using the same method as the test except that the enzyme diluent (D) is added instead of the enzyme solution.

* Dissolve the enzyme preparation in ice-cold enzyme diluent (D), dilute to 0.8-1.2U/ml with the same buffer and store on ice.

Calculation

Activity can be calculated by using the following formula :

ΔOD/min (ΔOD test−ΔOD blank ) ×Vt × df

Volume activity (U/ml) =                                                               =ΔOD/min×9.807×df

6.22×1.0×Vs


Weight activity (U/mg)=(U/ml)×1/C

Vt
: Total volume (3.05ml)
Vs
: Sample volume (0.05ml)
6.22
: Millimolar extinction coefficient of NADH under the assay conditions (㎠/micromole)
1.0
: Light path length (cm)
df
: Dilution factor
C
: Enzyme concentration in dissolution (c mg/ml)
