analysis | development of a simple, rapid, and inexpensive method of measuring the concentration of intrinsic free D-serine in tissue samples. The method uses chicken D-serine dehydratase in an enzymatic reaction to produce pyruvate, which is detected spectrophotometrically. The presence of Zn2+ or EDTA dioes not have any effect on pyruvate formation under the present assay conditions. The method is not affected by the presence of a large excess of L-serine, nor by the presence of tissue extracts, and accurately determines concentrations of 2-30 microM of D-serine. The entire assay requires only 60 min | Gallus gallus |
