Title: Spectrophotometric method for differentiation of cardiac and hepatic lactate dehydrogenase activities in dogs. Author: Aguilera-Tejero E, Mayer-Valor R, Gómez-Cárdenas G. Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1989 Jul; 50(7):1128-30. PubMed ID: 2774337. Abstract: To differentiate the origin of high total lactate dehydrogenase (LD) activity in canine sera, a spectrophotometric method based on the preferential inhibition of cardiac LD isoenzymes by pyruvate was performed. Comparison with the electrophoretic separation of LD isoenzyme activities and determination of the hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase-to-LD ratio indicated that the method proposed gave a better discrimination between cardiac and hepatic LD activities than did the other tests.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
