Abstract

Abstract We describe a method for calculating the absorptivity (in terms of substrate consumed) of the colored solution obtained when o-dianisidine dihydrochloride is oxidized by ceruloplasmin. By oxidizing o-dianisidine dihydrochloride with known amounts of hydrogen peroxide we could determine that the molar reacting ratio of o-dianisidine to hydrogen peroxide is 2:1. So calculated, absorptivity is 9.6 ml µmol-1 cm-1, the figure used to estimate ceruloplasmin oxidase activity in terms of International Units.
