TIME-COURSE OF FORMATION OF INOSITOL PHOSPHATES DURING ENZYMATIC-HYDROLYSIS OF PHYTIC ACID (MYOINOSITOL HEXAPHOSPHORIC ACID) BY PHYTASE DETERMINED BY CAPILLARY ISOTACHOPHORESIS
Capillary isotachophoresis with conductivity detection was applied to the investigation of the hydrolytic decomposition of phytic acid (myo-inositol hexaphosphoric acid) by phytase, and for the formation of the reaction products as a function of time. The quantitation of all analytes (besides phytic acid the mono- to pentaphosphorylated inositols and orthophosphate) can be carried out using two different buffer systems.
