  • Title: Use of nitrocellulose membrane to activate and measure insect prophenol oxidase.
    Author: Brey PT, Stoltz DB, Cook DI, Ashida M.
    Journal: Anal Biochem; 1991 May 01; 194(2):359-64. PubMed ID: 1907436.
    Abstract:
    A method for the activation and measurement of insect prophenol oxidase using nitrocellulose membrane is presented. Using this method we were able to conveniently activate both crude and purified prophenol oxidase from insects belonging to three different orders. This rapid method allows for prophenol oxidase activation, in the absence of a prophenol oxidase-activating system, and in the presence of high ionic strength, protease inhibitors, or chelator.
