Novel peptide derivatives which are acyl derivatives of luminol (5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione) or isoluminol (6-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione) where the acyl residue is an amino acid or amino acid sequence with 2 to 4 amino acid residues, coupled with an amide bond, and where the alpha -amino group is either free or acylated, methods for their preparation and a method for laboratory diagnostics of proteases using the peptide derivatives. The derivatives are intended for quantitative determination of proteases or proteas-activity by release of luminol or isoluminol which in their free state can be brought to luminate intensely, but lose considerably in luminiscence when they are amide-bound to a peptide sequence. |
