Abstract: | Summary A known ornithine decarboxylase assay working with ion exchang separation of [3H]ornithine and [3H]putrescine has been revised. The assay can be performed in disposable 1.5 ml vessels with a total of four pipetting steps. The separation of enzyme substrate and product, respectively, requires 3 h per 50 samples. The detection limit is about 50 pmoles [3H]putrescine formed. |
