Liquid reagent for calcium assay

摘要

The present invention relates to an enzyme immunoassay method for assaying calcium ion, including putting calcium-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase, namely glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) never expressing its activity in the absence of calcium ion, in contact to the calcium ion in a sample to assay the enzyme activity of the GLDH, the activity changing depending on the calcium ion concentration in the sample; and the invention also relates to an assay reagent for use in the same. Because the reagent is very stable in a solution state under storage, the reagent can be incorporated in a liquid reagent. Thus, the calcium in a biological material or other samples can be assayed in a simple and accurate manner. <IMAGE>
