19
Q

Elevation of tissue enzymes in serum may be used to detect

A

21
Q

The LD isoenzyme pattern produced by air the worth recite leakage most resembles that seen in which disease state

A

22
Q

The isoenzyme LD 4 and LD 5 are elevated in

A

23
Q

24
Q

In competitive inhibition of an enzyme reaction the

A

Inhibitor binds to the enzyme at the same site as the substrate

25
In the determination of lactate dehydrogenase at 340nm using pyruvate as a substrate one actually measures the
Decrease in nadh
26
The protein portion of an enzyme complex is called the
Apoenzyme
27
When a reaction is performed in zero kinetics the rate of reaction is
Independent of the substrate concentration
28
Enzyme reaction rates are increased by increasing temperatures until they reach the point of denaturation at
40 to 60 degrees Celsius
29
An example of using enzymes as reagents in The Clinical Laboratory is what method
The hexokinase glucose method
30
Activity of enzymes in serum may be determined rather than concentration because
The amount of enzyme is too low to measure
31
Which CK isoenzyme is elevated and muscle diseases
CK-MM
32
Elevation of serum amylase and lipase is commonly seen in
Acute pancreatitis
33
The saccharogenic method for amylase determinations measures
The amount of product produced
34
What enzyme pattern is most diagnostic of duchenne type muscular dystrophy
Total CK level that is 50 to 100 times the ULN
35
What pre-analytical error most commonly causes false increases in serum enzyme measurements
The serum was not separated from Red cells within 1 hour
36
Which pre-analytical error most commonly causes false increases in serum enzyme measurements
The serum was not separated from red blood cells within 1 hour
