Lactate Dehydrogenase Flashcards
Lactate dehydrogenase has —- subunits
4
The subunits May be either
Heart H
M muscle
The combinations of H and M are

The isoenzymes are separated by ———— at pH ——
Cellulose acetate electrophoresis, 8.6
LDH converts ——— to lactate
Pyruvate
Normal value of LDH in serum is
100-200U/L
M4 is seen in
Skeletal muscles
H4 is seen in
Heart
In myocardial infarction, what is flipped pattern
Normally LDH 2 concentration in blood is greater than LDH-1 but this is reversed in myocardial infarction
LDH will increase ——— hr after MI, reach a Peak by ——- hrs and the level will go back to original by ———- days
6-12 hrs
24-48hrs
6-8 days
LDH level is ———- times more in the RBC than in plasma
100
Minor amount of hemolysis will result in a false positive test
True or false
True
Electrophoretic mobility of —— is fastest
LDH 1
Electrophoretic mobility of ——- is slowest
LDH-5
LDH —- and —— are not destroyed at high temp
