SummaryIn this paper we report a method via which enzymatically active products formed during prothrombin activation can be detected by simple photographic means after SDS-gel electrophoresis, blotting onto a nitrocellulose membrane and visualization with the chromogenic substrate, S2238. After amidolytic detection the same nitrocellulose membrane can also be used for immunologic detection of prothrombin activation products, thus allowing a complete description of product formation during prothrombin activation.The detection limit of the so-called “amidoblot” is approximately 3 ng thrombin per gel sample which is comparable to the sensitivity of immunoblotting.It is further shown that the amidoblot technique can also be applied to other coagulation factors for which a suitable chromogenic substrate is available (factor XIIa, kallikrein, factor XIa, factor Xa, plasmin and activated protein C).

SummaryApplication of the methods of enzyme-kinetic analysis to the results of clotting tests is feasible and can yield useful results. However, the standard methods of enzyme kinetics are not applicable without modifications imposed by the peculiarities of the blood-clotting enzyme system. The influence of the following complicating circumstances is calculated :1. Substrate is not present in excess.2. Only relative measures exist for concentrations of substrate or enzymes.3. Enzymes and substrates are often added together.4. Reagents are not pure.5. Clotting-time is our only measure for clotting-velocity.Formulas are deduced, which makes it possible to recognize the effect of these complications.

ABSTRACT The effects of ethanol on kinetic parameters of placental Δ5-3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase were studied. In the presence of high pregnenolone concentrations (50 μm, [S] > Km) the microsomal enzyme preparation exhibited an almost linear increase in activity as the ethanol concentration in the medium was raised from 2.5 to 15 % (v/v). At lower substrate concentrations ([S] << Km) ethanol caused inhibition. Other effects of ethanol were: linearity of product formation with time was prolonged; the maximal velocity was markedly increased; the Km for pregnenolone slightly decreased with increasing ethanol concentrations (2.5 to 10 %, v/v) whereas the Km for NAD remained the same. The pH and temperature optima of the reaction were unaffected by ethanol. Other organic solvents caused similar effects.
