Abstract
- Abstract Purpose Adaptation of the colorimetric method for the determination of β- d -galactosidase, β- d -glucuronidase and α- l -fucosidase activities in serums from hemolyzed blood, the material currently being discarded. Materials and Methods The materials included serums from hemolyzed and non-hemolyzed blood, obtained from 26 healthy volunteers. The adaptation of the method involved precipitation of the proteins with trichloroacetic acid after incubating serums with substrates, but before determining the products of enzymatic reactions. Results In serums from hemolyzed and non-hemolyzed blood of the same persons, we found high correlations among the results obtained using hemolyzed blood (with adapted) and non-hemolyzed blood (with non-adapted) methods. Conclusion We are able to determine the β- d -galactosidase, β- d -glucuronidase and α- l -fucosidase activities in serums from hemolyzed blood (with adapted) and non-hemolyzed blood (with non-adapted) methods, with the same accuracy and precision.
