Quantification of urinary oxalate with oxalate oxidase from beet stems.

Abstract:

:We describe an automated (ABA-100) enzymic method for determination of urinary oxalate by use of oxalate oxidase (EC 1.2.3.4) isolated from beet stems. The H2O2 produced by the oxidation of oxalate by oxalate oxidase is measured by coupling with oxidation and conjugation of 3-methyl-3-benzothiazolinone hydrazone with N,N-dimethylaniline with catalysis by horseradish peroxidase. The resulting indamine dye is measured spectrophotometrically by the difference in absorption at 500 and 600 nm. Interfering substances are removed by oxidation with acidic ferric chloride and by cation-exchange chromatography. The assay is sensitive to 5 mg of urinary oxalate per liter, the standard curve is linear to 70 mg/L, and the procedure requires less than 3 h for completion. The within-run CV was less than 1.6%, the between-day CV less than 5.6%. The oxalate oxidase method results in a mean and reference interval for oxalate excretion that are comparable with those by isotope dilution, gas-chromatographic, colorimetric, and other enzymic procedures.
