Abstract: In this paper, methods of sample preparation for potentiometric measurement ofphenylalanine are presented. Basing on the spectrophotometric measurements ofphenylalanine, the concentrations of reagents of the enzymatic reaction (10 mM L-Phe,0,4 mM NAD+ , 2U L-PheDH) were determined. Then, the absorption spectrum of thereaction product, NADH, was monitored (maximum peak at 340 nm). The results obtainedby the spectrophotometric method were compared with the results obtained by thecolourimetry, using pH indicators. The above-mentioned two methods will be used asreferences for potentiometric measurements of phenylalanine concentration.
Keywords: Phenylalanine determination; enzymatic methods; pH-based biosensing.
