title: Enzyme kinetics by mid-infrared spectroscopy: beta-fructosidase study by a one-step assay.
abstract: An alternate method for enzyme study is proposed. Multidimensional statistical analysis applied on mid-infrared attenuated total reflectance spectra (Cadet et al. (1991) Appl. Spectrosc. 42, 166-172) collected during a kinetic allows a direct and fast quantification of the remaining substrate, as well as a one step enzymatic assay. Furthermore, the combination of these techniques may be used as a structural tool. The method applied to the study of beta-fructosidase is developed in this paper as an example. With appropriate calibration, the method may be extend to any enzyme.
