Enzyme activity decreases upon binding • Refer to the instrument User’s Guide for appropriate instrument checks and maintenance to the antibody, so the drug concentration in the sample can be measured in terms of enzyme instructions. activity. Active enzyme converts oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to NADH, resulting in an absorbance change that is measured spectrophotometrically. Endogenous serum G6PDH does not interfere because the coenzyme functions only with the bacterial (Leuconostoc mesenteroides) enzyme employed in the assay.
