Abstract
Abstract Leucine aminopeptidase activity was measured using l -[U- 14 C]leucinamide as substrate. The leucine freed by hydrolysis was separated by high voltage electrophoresis and estimated in a scintillation counter. The method was especially useful for studying the production of LAP during the molting of infective juveniles of the nematodes, H. contortus , because activity could be measured without purifying or concentrating the enzyme.
