Maltotetraose as a substrate for enzyme-coupled assay of amylase activity in serum and urine

KJ Whitlow, N Gochman, RL Forrester and LJ Wataji

The use of maltotetraose ss a new substrate for the enzyme-coupled determination of amylase activity in biological fluids was developed by Beckman Microbics. We evaluated a manual and a centrifugal analyzer version of the method in comparison with two commonly used manual starch-dye amylase techniques: Roche Amylochrome and Pharmacia Phadebas. Both maltotetraose amylase procedures proved to be rapid and precise, and results correlated satisfactorily with the starch-dye methods for serum and urine samples.
