Influence of Monoethanolamine on Activity Measurements of the Isoenzymes of Alkaline Phosphatase

Abstract: Summary: Monoethanolamine, a frequent impurity of diethanolamine, inhibits the activity of the isoenzymes of alkaline phosphatase to various extents. Isoenzymes from liver and bone, in particular, are strongly inhibited. Inhibition is stronger at lower (25 °C) than at higher temperatures (37 °C).

“…As in DEA buffer, there is sufficient stability for the clinically relevant isoenzymes from bones and liver. It is known that already low concentrations of monoethanolamine in DEA buffer lead to an inhibition of AP activity (2, 17) and that indi vidual isoenzymes are concerned to different extents (9), and thus this buffer has been re jected again. The AMPD buffer, therefore, could be a good alternative for AP activity determinations at 37 °C.…”

“…This holds pri marily for the purity of the buffer used and the amount of inorganic phosphate and 4-nitrophenol in the substrate 4-nitrophenylphosphate [24][25][26]. From studies of Simpson et al [26] and from Jung and Pergande [27] it is obvious that especially placental phospha tase is inhibited by inorganic phosphate, present as an impurity in the reagents.…”

“…in diethanolamine both display a positive bias versus isoenzymes present in sera of healthy people and those of intestinal and placental origin (1). Both aminoalcohols often contain inactivating impurities as 5-amino-3-aza-2,2,5-trimethylhexanol (6) in 2amino-2-methyl-l-propanol, and monoethanolamine (7) in diethanolamine. Therefore, we evaluated the use of methylglucamine, a pure buffer substance with moderate phosphate-acceptor properties, which has been proposed by Chromy et al (8) for alkaline phosphatase determination and recommended by the Italian society (9).…”
