title: Automated enzymatic determination of ATP in bovine muscle tissue.
abstract: An automated method is described for the enzymatic determination of adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) in meat using hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) in the range of 0-115 micrograms/ml. THe NADPH formed is measured spectrophotometrically at 340 nm. ATP can be analysed at a rate of forty samples per hour.
