Serum
lysozyme: evaluation of a nephelometric assay
Reitamo S, Lalla
M, Huipero A.
A nephelometric
lysozyme (LZM) assay method was compared to two commonly used enzymatic
LZM assay methods. LZM concentrations obtained with the nephelometric
method correlated well with those obtained with the spectrophotometric
(r = + 0.98) and the lysoplate (r =+ 0.93) methods. The precision
of the nephelometric method was 5.1% (CV). The nephelometric LZM assay
offers a simple, reproducible and rapid assay method for serum LZM
determinations.
