[A procedure for determination of acid mannosidase activities in biological fluids]

A procedure has been developed for simultaneous determination of the activities of alpha-D- and beta-D-mannosidase in the biological fluids from the quantity of free 4-nitrophenol. The latter is released via enzymatic degradation of substrates of 4-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-mannose and 4-nitrophenyl-beta-D-mannose in individual incubation tests.
