MEASUREMENT OF ALPHA-AMYLASE ACTIVITY

摘要

Measurement of alpha -amylase activity is conducted by using a modified amylose having one carboxymethyl group or a salt thereof per 6 to 36 glucose units in amylose as substrate and using a coupling enzyme of glucoamylase or alpha -glucosidase to produce glucose and quantitatively determining the glucose produced by a known method. When a special reaction stopper for the coupling enzyme glucoamylase is used, fixed-time assay becomes possible.
