Abstract

Stabilized enzymes useful in the diagnostic assay of total cholesterol are prepared by dissolving a salt of cholic acid in a buffer solution providing a pH within the range of about 4 to about 9, to the solution is added a cholesterol esterase. The solution is then mixed with a polyhydroxy organic compound and TRITON-X-100. A cholesterol oxidase and a peroxidase are each dissolved in separate portions of buffer solution and introduced into the buffered solution containing the cholesterol esterase. 4-aminoantipyrine is then added to the solution. The resultant solution is a stabilized enzyme solution which can be used in the total cholesterol assay of a serum sample. The stabilized solution can be used in combination with a chromogen diluent solution which is made by dissolving phenol and TRITON-X-100 in water or a buffer solution. The combination of the stabilized enzyme solution and the chromogen diluent solution provides a solution which has utility in the spectrophotometric assay of total cholesterol.
