Abstract
This paper presents a modified method of enzymatic assay for Fructose-1,6-diphosphate(FDP). FDP is split to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DAP) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) by the action of aldolase. DAP is hydrolyzed at room temperature to free triose. Under alkaline conditions, the free triose is reacted with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH), yielding a 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine derivative which dissolve in alkali forming a purple color mixture, with maximum absorption at 540.nm. It is proportional to the contents of FDP. Because the method depends on the colorimetric determination of triose formed from fructose-1,6-diphosphate only by aldolase, glycerophosphate dehydrogenase/triosephosphate isomerase (GDH/TIM) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) which usually applied in multienzymatic method, are omitted in the modified method. The method is specific, convenient and accuracy for the determination of FDP.
