abstract：:A new method for measuring the secretion of H(2)O(2) has been based upon an H(2)O(2)-dependent inhibition of catalase by 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole. The conversion of an H(2)O(2)-secretion rate into a catalase inhibition rate amplified a relatively small molar concentration of H(2)O(2) and provided a highly specific and s...
