Xanthine oxidase activity: simultaneous HPLC evaluation of the "D" and "O" forms
Abstract
A new HPLC method was set up for the simultaneous evaluation of the amount of uric acid and NADH produced by incubation of tissue fractions containing xanthine oxidase, from which the activity of both type "O" (oxidase) and type "D" (dehydrogenase) xanthine oxidase can be calculated. After incubation of the enzyme fraction and ethanol extraction, HPLC analysis is directly carried out. Sensitivity of the method is high enough for the evaluation of xanthine oxidase activity at the lowest reported tissue values. The reliability of the method was tested measuring the enzyme activity in rat heart and kidney extracts.
