Abstract

There is provided a method of quantitative assay for 1,5-anhydroglucitol in a specimen characterized by effectively removing maltose present in the specimen using .alpha.-glucosidase. Maltose present in a specimen is previously converted into glucose by the action of .alpha.-glucosidase derived from a microorganism belonging to the genus Bacillus to remove the affect by maltose. Then 1,5-anhydroglucitol in the specimen is quantitatively determined.
