[Digital densimetric method for the determination of enzymatic reaction rates (author's transl)]. 1976

K H Park, and H Weisser, and M Loncin

A new digital method of density measurement has been developed for the determination of enzymatic reaction rates. The method by means of which reaction kinetics can be pursued in a very easy way is particularly suited for hydrolases. The results obtained in studies on invertase and lipase are reported in this paper.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007202	Indicators and Reagents	Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D008049	Lipase	An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. It is produced by glands on the tongue and by the pancreas and initiates the digestion of dietary fats. (From Dorland, 27th ed) EC 3.1.1.3.
