Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Sialidase Assay
Description:  Briefly, the reaction mixtures containing the substrates and up to 100 nM sialidase were incubated at 37°C and stopped by the addition of 0.5 M Na2CO3 pH 9.0 for the colorimetric assay or 0.25 M glycine pH 10.0 for the fluorimetric assay. Released p-NP was detected spectrophometrically at 405 nm. The fluorescenceassociated with the release of 4-MU was measured at the excitation wavelength of 365 nm and an emission wavelength of 445 nm. These measurements were performed using an EnVision microplate reader (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, Mass.).
