Abstract

A rapid and specific method and reagent for determining LD-1 isoenzyme in biological fluids by incorporating a chaotropic agent, such as sodium perchlorate, into an LDH assay reagent system. The chaotropic agent produces an immediate inactivation of the LDH isoenzymes containing one or more `M` type subunits while the LTD-1 isoenzyme remains stable and is simultaneously measured.
