Popis: The formation of resorufin from 7-ethoxyresorufin by microsomal mixed-function oxidase may be assayed rapidly by precipitating the protein in incubation mixtures with methanol and measuring the fluorescence of resorufin in the supernatant after centrifugation. Conditions are described for minimizing the effects of the instability of resorufin and of inhibition by the product. Higher activity and linear plots of microsomal protein concentration versus activity are obtained by including bovine serum albumin or ethylenediamine-tetraacetate in the incubation mixture.
