ABSTRACT THE spectrophotometrie method of Kunitz1is a marked improvement over previous methods for the measurement of trypsin and chymotrypsin activity. This procedure involves a measurement


of the optical density at 280 mµ. of the trichloracetic acid-soluble products formed during the enzyme hydrolysis of casein; it becomes impractical, however, where large concentrations of


280 mµ absorbing materials are present, such as in sera. In this communication, a modification of this procedure will be described which utilizes casein labelled with iodine-131 as the


substrate and the measurement of radioactivity as an estimate of enzyme activity. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your
