Unit definition
One unit of cholesterol esterase is defined as the amount of enzyme producing 1 μmol H2O2 per minute under standard determination conditions.
Reagents preparation
Reagent I:0.2 M K3PO4 solution, pH 6.0.
Reagent II: Add 39 mg cholesterol linoleic acid ester to 2.0 ml isopropanol, heat by water bath for a complete dissolution. Add about 80 ml of 1% Genapol X-80 preheated at 72-74℃, water bath at 72-74℃ and stir for 30 min, the solution will become clear first and then turbid. Cool the solution to room temperature with water. Add 0.6 g sodium cholate, after dissolution, dilute to 100 ml with 1% Genapol X-80 solution.
Reagent III: 1 kU/mL POD.
Reagent IV:50 mM TOOS solution.
Reagent V:50 mM 4-AA solution.
Reagent VI:300 U/mL COX enzyme solution.
Enzyme diluent:20 mM K3PO4 solution, pH 6.0. 2 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM EDTA-Na2 and 0.2% BSA.
Add the following components in the order specified:
Reagent I |
75 mL |
Reagent II |
50 mL |
Reagent III |
750 μL |
Reagent IV |
2.5 mL |
Reagent V |
2.5 mL |
|
Set to 135 mL |
Procedure
1. Add 2.75 mL of the reaction mixture to a 3 ml cuvette.
2. Add 0. 1 mL of reagent VI, water bath at 37℃ for 2 min.
3. Add 0. 1 mL of enzyme samples and mix well.
4. Measure absorbance change(As) in 1 minute at 555nm at 37°C. * Set a blank control with enzyme diluent, measure the blank absorbance change(∆Ab)
∆A= ∆As - ∆Ab
