Abstract
Abstract A procedure is presented for the automated determination of acid phosphatase activity in biological materials from either plant or animal origin. The Technicon N-7 flow diagram has been simplified, and the reagents for the measurement of enzymatically produced phenolic substances have been modified without loss of range or sensitivity. Both phenylphosphate and α-naphthylphosphate, introduced by Babson et al. (2, 3) for serum acid phosphatase, may be used as substrates. The Emerson reaction (alkaline aminoantipyrine and ferricyanide) with α-naphthol forms a more stable and reproducible color than the coupled product with tetrazotized o-dianisidine (Babson). Supporting data for these modifications are included.
