Dear Kamal,

Three (3.0) ml of the reaction mixture consisting of 1.5 ml phosphate buffer, 300 ml ascorbate, 600 ml H2O2 and 600 ml enzyme extract was taken and the decrease in absorbance was recorded at 290 nm. Calculations

The enzyme activity (U/min/g) =[(Change in abs./minute)* Total volume (ml)] /[Extinction coefficient*Enzyme volume]

Where, Extinction coefficient = 2.8 mM-1 cm-1

Abhishek

Thanks Mr. Abhishek. One more thing i want to consult from you. Extinction coefficient = 2.8 mM-1 cm-1. In this extinction coefficient, we have to change the units cm-1 in to mm-1 or use it as it is?

Use it as it is.
