Micro-scale enzymic determination of ethanol in plasma with a discrete analyzer, the ABA-100. 1979

L W Whitehouse, and C J Paul

An enzymic method for estimating ethanol has been adapted to the Abbott Bichromatic Analyzer-100. Fully automated, the method can accommodate up to 192 assays per hour. It requires only 2.5 muL of plasma and therefore is applicable to analysis for ethanol in blood sampled by finger-prick.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008832 Microchemistry The development and use of techniques and equipment to study or perform chemical reactions, with small quantities of materials, frequently less than a milligram or a milliliter.
D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.
