PROCESS AND DEVICE FOR THE CONTINUAL DETERMINATION OF THE CONCENTRATION OF AN ENZYME SUBSTRATE

摘要

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE CONTINUOUS DETERMINATION OF THE CONCENTRATION OF AN ENZYME SUBSTRATE Enzyme substrates in aqueous liquids are continuously measured by introducing a sample containing the substrate to be determined into a current of buffer solution, reacting the substrate on an immobilized enzyme and measuring, in a measurement chamber, a physical change in the solution brought about by the reaction, wherein a current of buffer solution containing the sample to be determined is passed alternatingly (i) directly through the measurement chamber with the production of a reference signal and (ii) first over the immobilized enzyme and thereafter through the measurement chamber with the production of a measurement signal, and relating the reference signal to the measurement signal to indicate the enzyme substrate initially present.
