Theophylline can be determined with an analytical element and method which utilize the inhibition, by theophylline, of alkaline phosphatase activity on an appropriate substrate. The assay is carried out at a pH of 9 or less. The element comprises a porous spreading zone and at least one other zone in fluid contact with the spreading zone. The isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase and a suitable substrate for the isoenzyme are located in different zones of the element. The element also contains a buffer for maintaining the pH at 9 or less, substantially all of which is located in the porous spreading zone.
茶碱可以用一种分析元素和方法来测定,这种元素和方法利用茶碱对适当底物上碱性
磷酸酶活性的抑制作用。检测在 pH 值为 9 或更低的条件下进行。检测元件包括一个多孔扩散区和至少一个与扩散区流体接触的其他区域。碱性
磷酸酶同工酶和该同工酶的合适底物位于该元件的不同区域。该元件还含有用于将 pH 值保持在 9 或以下的缓冲剂,缓冲剂基本上全部位于多孔扩散区。
