title: [Micromethods for the study of hexokinase in human erythrocytes].
abstract: A direct radioassay for the erythrocyte enzyme using U14C-glucose as substrate has been developed. With respect to the indirect spectrophotometric assay this method allows for the determination of true hexokinase activity. The assay proposed is sensitive, rapid and well suited for the determination of hexokinase activity in the erythrocyte lysate where the enzyme level is particularly low.
