摘要
A rapid and sensitive method for the location of enzymes after disc gel electrophoresis has been developed by a modification of the well-known formazan reaction. By means of the same assay, semiquantitative evaluation of the enzymic activity can also be accomplished, permitting measurement of enzymic activity in crude extracts. As has been illustrated by several examples, the procedures can be modified and adapted for the detection and measurement of numerous enzymes. The method is applicable to all enzymes converting nonreducing substrates into products exhibiting reducing properties. In addition, macromolecules susceptible to periodate oxidation can be selectively stained employing the same procedure. © 1969.
