Abstract
We developed a new device for rapid and convenient amylase assay, by combining the rapid quenching and the continuous flow techniques, with a novel apparatus which can measure the amylase activity in a trice (iodine coloration). The instrument was successfully applied for determining glucoamylase, pancreatic α-amylase and amylase in human serum samples. All the procedures are operated automatically under the regulation of a microcomputer program.
