As users of the AU2700/640 will be aware, Olympus are moving to calibration for all of their enzyme assays. After 30 plus years of measuring the activity of enzymes by methods based on a factor derived from the molar extinction coefficient and standardised assay conditions, it seems like a sea change to move to calibration of enzymes as if they were albumin or glucose.
I wondered if anyone had comments on this proposed change as I haven't seen any scientific arguments for or against it.
