Preferred Label : enzyme assays;
MeSH definition : Methods used to measure the relative activity of a specific enzyme or its concentration
in solution. Typically an enzyme substrate is added to a buffer solution containing
enzyme and the rate of conversion of substrate to product is measured under controlled
conditions. Many classical enzymatic assay methods involve the use of synthetic colorimetric
substrates and measuring the reaction rates using a spectrophotometer.;
