A sensitive and practical high-throughput screening method for assaying lipase synthetic activity is described. Lipase-catalyzed transesterification between vinyl acetate and n-butanol in n-hexane was chosen as a model reaction. The released acetaldehyde was determined by the colorimetric method using 3-methyl-2-benzothialinone (MBTH) derivatization. In comparison with other methods, the major advantages of this process include high sensitivity, simple detection, inexpensive reagents, and low requirements for instruments.

D057075 Enzyme Assays Methods used to measure the relative activity of a specific enzyme or its concentration in solution. Typically an enzyme substrate is added to a buffer solution containing enzyme and the rate of conversion of substrate to product is measured under controlled conditions. Many classical enzymatic assay methods involve the use of synthetic colorimetric substrates and measuring the reaction rates using a spectrophotometer.
