Assay Protocol1. Prepare sample solutions for the enzymatic oxidation reaction. The pH range of the buffer solution should be from 5.5-9.5.2. Prepare standard solutions containing known amounts of substrate using the same buffer.3. Add the appropriate units of oxidase to the sample solution, followed by an addition of the same volume of the assay solution.4. Incubate the mixture at room temperature or at 37oC for 30 min to 1 hour.5. Measure the O.D. at 555 nm.6. Prepare a standard curve, and determine the substrate concentration in the sample solution.
