Abstract 1. Both a standard method and a semi-micro method for the spectrophotometric assay of serum glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (S-GOT) concentrations have been described. 2. Either procedure is associated with an error defined by a factor of less than 1.03. 3. The temperature dependence of the rate of transamination was shown to follow Arrhenius' law over the range of temperature from 25° to 38°. 4. A tabulation of temperature factors calculated from the derived Arrhenius equation was presented. These factors permit correction of rates observed at temperature T to rates expected at 32°. 5. A comparison of normal S-GOT values from various sources was made, with correction for temperature differences. Based on 779 values from four different laboratories, the combined mean for adults was 21.9. 6. A standard unit of transaminase activity was defined and referred to as a Karmen unit. A Karmen unit represents that amount of transaminase in 1 ml. of sample which will cause a decrease in optical density at 340 mµ of 0.001 per minute at a temperature of 32°, an effective light path of 1 cm., and a volume of test solution of 3 ml. According to this definition, the mean normal adult S-GOT concentration is 21.9 Karmen units. The practical upper limit of normal will be defined in another publication.

High Enzyme Activity

Abstract Study of the colorimetric transaminase method of Reitman and Frankel for the determination of serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase activity revealed the following: (1) although maximum absorption occurs at 444 mµ, absorbance readings at 505 mµ gave satisfactory results; (2) color development is immediate and the color is stable for at least 1 hr.; (3) a pyruvate calibration standard may be used; (4) sample blanks are not usually necessary; (5) a reagent blank should accompany each group of analyses and should be used as a photometric reference; (6) the relationship between dilution and enzyme activity is linear; and (7) although the relationship between incubation time and activity is not exactly linear, a factor has been determined to permit the use of a 12-min. incubation period with samples showing high enzyme activity.

Final Color

Abstract Babson's method for the assay of serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (SGO-T) is modified to increase its accuracy and reliability. The final color produced is made stable with the addition of bisulfite ion, thereby making the procedure more suitable for the routine clinical laboratory. The 95% limits for values on 20 healthy laboratory workers was 4 to 26 units with a mean of 13 units.

Abstract The SMA-12/30 method for serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase assay gives higher values than are obtained with a reference spectrophotometric method for some serums. A modification of the manifold is made to permit the running of serum blanks. Blank corrections on 466 serum samples indicate that dialysis does not eliminate the need for the blank determination. Acetoacetate interferes in the SMA-12/30 method. The possibility of other interfering substances has not been ruled out.

Tourniquet Ischemia

Small, but statistically significant, increases of serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (G-O-T) are shown to be associated with local irradiation injury in the rabbit. Similar results are observed after crush injury. If the rabbit leg is subjected to 3 hours of tourniquet ischemia, however, G-O-T elevations of extent comparable to human myocardial infarction and acute hepatocellular damage are observed.
