Then, the mixture was added 40 µL of p-NPG 5 mM as a substrate and incubated for 20 min. Finally, 130 µL of Na 2 CO 3 0.2 M was placed in the well to stop the reaction before measuring OD 405 nm by Perkin Elmer 2030 Elisa reader. The reaction mixture not added enzyme is blank. Acarbose was used as a positive control. Buffer used for dissolving the extracts is negative control. Each sample was tested with 3 replicates. The percentage of inhibition activity (%I) was calculated according to the equation:

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
