Description
The present invention is concerned with a process for the determination of substrates or enzyme activities with the use of a redox re~ction as measurement reaction and is also concerned with a reagent for carrying out this process.
In clinical and pharMaceutical chemistry, bio-chemistry and foodstuff chemistry, redox reactions are of great interest for the determination of en~yme or substrate concentrations. These reactions can be evalu-ated by photometric measurements. If, in addition to the redox components of interest, the test system contains other reducing substances, disturbances can occur.
Ascorbic acid is found especially frequently in sample material. Since it is a strong reducing agent, it gives . .~
rise to disturbances when investigating phanmaceuticals or physiological fluids, such as serum or urine, ascorbic acid-containing plant juices or other foodstuffs which contain ascorbic-acid or to which ascorbic acid has been added. Thus, for example, it is known that the following reactions are disturbed by ascorbic acid:
A. reactions in which hydrogen peroxide and a hydrogen donor are reacted wit'n peroxidase (PoD3 are disturbed by the reaction:
ascorbic acid + H202 POD~ dehydroascorbic acid + H20 B. reactions in which tetrazolium salts are reduced with reducing agents to give formazanes are disturbed by the reaction:
ascorbic acid + tetrazolium salt formazane + dehydroascorbic acid C. reactions in which phenols are oxidatively coupled with

~343~3 nucleoph]lic reagents are disturbed because ascorbic acicl gives rise to side reactions, which have not yet been elucidated, so that non-uniform coupling products are formed, the absorption behaviour of which deviates in normal and ultra-violet light from the coupling products normally formed.
Conventional oxidation methods are, as a rule, unsuitable for the removal of ascorbic acid from the sample material.
Oxidation agents also attack and destroy substrates and enzymes.
Their reduction products, which are mostly di- and trivalent metal ions, frequently inhibit the enzymes used for the indica-tor reaction. The destruction of ascorbic acid in the presence of oxygen necessitates the use of strongly alkaline media, for example a 25% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. This also ~; leads to the destruction of substrates and enzymes.
`~~ Therefore, the problem forming the basis of the present ... .
- invention is to provide a process for the determination of ; substrates or enzyme activities, with the use of a redox reac-tion as measurement reaction, which is no longer disturbed by - 20 ascorbic acid.
According to the present invention, this problem is solved by adding ascorbate oxidase to the reaction batch.
~ . , Ascorbate oxidase catalyses the reaction:
~; ascorbic acid + 1/2 2 ascorbate oxidase dehydroascorbic acid + H20 According to the statements in the literature concerning .
ascorbic acid oxidase, it was to have been expected that this enzyme could not be employed for the ~

purpose according to the present inven-tion. Thus, all previously obtained enzyme preparations produce hydrogen peroxide in a side reaction. At the same time, ascorbate oxidase undergoes a very rapid inactivation which is ascribed to the simultaneously formed hydrogen peroxide (Biochemical Copper Proceedings Symposium Harriman, New York 1965, pp. 305 - 337). This also applies to the most highly purified preparations which, in the ultracentrifuge and by electrophoresis, no longer show the presence of any impurities (Biochem. 4, 1362-1370/1965). ~he reaction inactivation is ascribed to the formation o~ hydrogen peroxide (Biochem. Biophys. Acta 5~, 427 to 439/1962).
According to the calculations of the lat~er authors, lU
ascorbate oxidase in 1 mMol/litre ascorbic acid solution can produce 0.7 x 10 2 mMol/litre of hydrogen peroxide, such ascorbate concentrations being frequently present in sample solutions. The hydrogen peroxidè formed is certainly available for enzymatic reactions, which has been demonstrated in the case of, for example, catalase.
In the system:-hydrogen donor + ~202~PoD~ coloured material ~ 2H20 used for the photometric determination of hydxogen ,~
., peroxide, at a molar extinction coefficient of about 20 cm / ~Mol, it brings about an extinction difference of 0.14. Since the measurement range of normal photo-metric reactions extends from about 0.01 - 1.00, this gi~es rise to an unacceptable error. In the same way, reactions are disturbed in which, instead of hydrogen peroxide, use is made of organic hydroperoxides and instead of POD, use is made of haemoglobin or of other ;

oxidation catalysts.
However, apart from these errors brought about by hydrogen peroxide, it is known from the above last-mention~d literature reference that the reaction of the ascorbic acid already comes to a stop long before its ~ .
complete removal.
This would be especially serious in the case of all those redox reactions in which hydrogen peroxide is formed since this hydrogen peroxide would certainly, on the one hand, further accelerate the inactivation of the enzyme and, on the other hand, the new formation of hydrogen peroxide by the ascorbate oxidase itself leads to completely unpredictable phenomena. Therefore, it is most surprising that, contrary to expectations, it is possible completely to remove the disturbances brought ;~
about by the presence of ascorbate by the addition of ascorbate oxidase, without other disturbances arising which would again nullify the advantage of:the ascorbate removal.
., The process according to the present invention is preferably used in the case of enzymatic reactions, especially those in which hydrogen peroxide is formed and thus in the case of reactions which are catalysed by oxidases, such as'glucose oxidase, uricase, cholesterol oxidase and the like, as w~ll as in the case of reactions in which tetrazolium salts are reduced and in the case of reactions in which phenols are oxidatively coupled with nucleophi:Lic reagents. The amount of ascorbate oxidase added depends upon the amount of ascorbic acid to be :
e~pected in the sample. As a rule, O.002 to 100 U
; _5_ 39~
ascorbate oxidase/ml. and preferably 0.01 to 30 U/ml., are added to the -test batch. The pH value of the reaction depe~ds, in the first place, upon the pH value which is necessary for the other participating enzyme or enzymes.
pH values of from 4.0 to 8.5 are usually appropriate for the process of the present invention. Accordlng to the - invention, it is especially preferred to use an ascorbate oxidase obtained from small marrows (Curcurbita ~e~
medullosa). However, ascorbate oxidase of other origin can also be used.
The present invention also provides a reagent for the determination of substrates or enzyme activities, com-prising a system for the determination of a substrate or enzyme with a redox reaction as measurement reaction, the reagent additionally containing ascorbate oxidase.
Preferred reagents of this type contain, when glucose is the substrate to be determined, peroxidase, glucose oxidase, o-dianisidine or azino-di-3-ethylbenzyl-thiazoline-6-suIphonate, together with buffer, or hexo-kinase (~), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6P-DH), diaphorase, nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotide phosphate ~ ;
(NADP), a tetrazolium salt, such as 3-(4-iodophenyl)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-phenyl-2H-tetrazolium chloride (INT) and buffer.

3-methyl-6-potassium sulphonyl-benzthiazolone-2-hydrazone, in each case together with a buf~er. All these systems for the determination of substrates are known. However, there can also be used instead other known systems for the determination of substrates or enzymes within the scope of the reagent according to the present invention.
The present invention is also of especial irnportance for use in the field of rapid diagnostics. As a rule, such rapid diagnostics contain the various reagents needed -for carrying out the process either impregnated in an absorbent carrier or applied" together with an appropriate binding agent, to a carrier filmO A preferred embodi-.
mental form is the addition of the ascorbate oxidase to ~ ~
the mixture of the other reagents, with subsequent impreg- --nation into an absorbent carrier~ In this way, there can be obtained test papers which are practically not dis-turbed, for example, by ascorbic acid when used for the detection of glucose in urine (for example, according to ~erman Patent Specification No. 23 38 932) or of blood in urine (for example, according to German Patent Spec-ifications ~os.2,460,903 or 2,235,152) or of blood in faeces.

The ascorbate oxidase can, however, also be applied to a separate carrier which is then combined with the carrier for the other reagents, for example, laid there-over, stuck thereto or jointly sealed in between approp-riate materials~. In this case, an especially preferred carrier for the ascorbate oxidase is a so-called water-soluble paper (for example, according to German Patent Specification ~o.2,436,598) which allows the colour reaction to be observed especially well on the carrier paper containing the other reagants. This embodiment is ;~-especially advantageous when, in the reagent combination, substances are present which are incompatible with the ascorbate oxidase, for example strongly acidic reagents ~ -such as are used in processes for the determination of urobilinogen, bilirubin and nitrite.
In the case of the above embodiments, there can be used up to 5000 U and preferably up to 2000 U ascorbate , .
oxidase per ml. impregnation solution for the preparation of the reagent. In general, less than 1 U/ml. will not ensure the desired effect.
