  • Title: beta-galactosidase assay using capillary electrophoresis laser-induced fluorescence detection and resorufin-beta-D-galactopyranoside as substrate.
    Author: Eggertson MJ, Craig DB.
    Journal: Biomed Chromatogr; 1999 Dec; 13(8):516-9. PubMed ID: 10611604.
    Abstract:
    beta-Galactosidase was incubated for 60 min with the fluorogenic substrate resorufin-beta-D-galactopyranoside, which is converted by the action of the enzyme into resorufin and galactose. A 160 pL aliquot of reaction mixture was analyzed by capillary electrophoresis utilizing laser-induced fluorescence detection. Based on the detection of the resorufin formed, the limit of detection of beta-galactosidase was 1.5 x 10(-15) M or 900 molecules of enzyme in a 1 microL sample.
