LENGTH GLU Hexokinase with ATP converts G-6PD, Hb(500) 20 L, 340, 383 GLU to glucose-6-phosphate. G- ATP,NADP BIL(20) 12 L, end point 6-PD then oxidizes it and TG(600) 10 H simultaneously converts NADP TO NADPH BUN Urease splits urea to ammonia Urease, 340 rate and co2, the former reacts with NADPH, GLDP alpha keto gluterate to form amine reductively and simultaneously oxidizes NADPH TO NADP Crea Picric acid in strong alkaline sol Lithium picrate, 510,710 reacts with creatinine to form Naoh, red chromophore TBIL Diazo sulfinilic acid comp is Sodium nitrite, 540,600 formed by sod. Nitrite and hcl. Sulfinilic sulfinilic acid. The insoluble Bil acid, is solubilized by buffer. buffer,caffine, sod benzoate, disod EDTA DBIL Diazo sulfinilic acid comp is Sodium nitrite formed by sod. Nitrite and sulfonilic acid sulfinilic acid hcl URCA Uricase converts uric acid to Buffer TG at 600mg/dl 293,700 allantoin which is not absorbed stabilizers, decreases by end point at 293nm. Disappearance of uric uricase 0.2mg acid causes change in absorbance TP Cu ++ forms complex with Hb(500mg) 540,700 peptide bonds in alkaline sol to H,dextran L. form blue sol. Tartrate prevents BIL L, ppt of Cu(oh)2 ALB Bromocresol purple(BCP) forms BCP dye, CMPF in sera of 540,600, complex with albumin at ph 4.9 acetate buffer, CRF pts give false 700 in presence of a stabilizing surfactant low alb agent. AST Asparate transferase catalyzes LDH,MDH, 340,700 transamination from L-asparate NADH to ketoglutrate forming L- Ketoglutrate glutamate and oxaloacetate. asparatic acid, Oxaloacetate is reduced to buffer malate by MDH and NADPH is oxidised ALT ALT catalyzes transamination of LDH, NADH. 340,700 L-alanine to K Glutrate Kg,buffewr,alan formaing L-glutamate and ine pyruvate. Pyruvate is reduced to lactate by LDH and NADH is oxidized TG Lipase splits TG into glycerol NAD, Lipase, 340,383 and fatty acids. GDH oxidises GDH, bich. glycerol and reduces NAD buffer,k2co3 CHOL Cholesterol esterase free cholesterol from cho esters.
