Preparation Note

Working solution: Dissolve one ABTS tablet (5 mg) in 5 ml of the ABTS buffer solution. This solution has a light-green color. In microtiter plates, it is colorless A_{405 nm}/1 cm should be <0.16. Work as clean as possible. Heavy metal ions or traces of peroxidase can produce a dark green ABTS solution. Such solutions are not suitable for the assay.

Analysis Note

Evaluation: photometric (405nm)
