Need to know from the community why we use Hippury-L-histidyl-L-Leucine as a substrate in ACE inhibitory activity
The product, hippuric acid, can be extracted and quantified by its absorbance. Alternatively, it can be measured by using liquid chromatography with UV detection for separation and measurement without having to do an extraction.
Here is a protocol for the extraction method:

Thank you Adam B Shapiro
So if i get 55% inhibition during ACE enzyme assay, what does it mean and correlate with substrate HHL and product hipuric acid
