The effect of storage on enzyme activities in tissues

PMCID: PMC1168520  PMID: 4468816

Abstract

The stability to storage at −20°C of 29 enzymes of rat tissues was measured for periods of up to 100 days. The enzymes could be divided into four groups: (1) those that increased in activity with storage; (2) those that showed transient rises subsequently declining to the original activity or below; (3) those that showed no significant change; (4) those that declined in activity. Details of methods used and of results obtained have been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50038 (19 pages) at the British Library (Lending Division) (formerly the National Lending Library for Science and Technology), Boston Spa, Yorks. LS23 7BQ, U.K., from whom copies can be obtained on the terms indicated in Biochem.J. (1973), 131, 5.
