Test Principle: Xanthine Oxidase (XOD) is mainly present in milk, liver and spleen of mammals, belonging to aerobic dehydrogenases, which is an important enzyme in nucleic acid metabolism in the body. When hepatocytes are injured, this enzyme is released into the serum earlier than SGPT, and increase its activity in serum significantly, which has obvious significance for the identification of hepatocellular jaundice and it is used for the identification of obstructive jaundice. In the process of hypoxia, xanthine dehydrogenase quickly forms xanthine oxidase, which plays an important role in free radical production.
XOD can catalyze hypoxanthine to xanthine, and at the same time while producing superoxide anion free radicals. In the presence of electron acceptor and chromogenic agent, the purplish red substance can be generated, and the vitality of XOD can be calculated by measuring the production of purplish red substance.
