A stable starch preparation for amylase determinations.
Starch readily dissolves in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) to give a clear, colourless solution which is stable and forms a convenient stock starch solution for amylase determinations. Dimethylsulphoxide has no inhibitory effect on serum amylase over a wide range of concentrations.
