J H Baustert et al.
Analytical biochemistry, 171(2), 393-397 (1988-06-01)
A direct and continuous kinetic method for the fluorometric determination of alpha-chymotrypsin and trypsin is described, and 2-aminoacridone (2-AA) is introduced as a promising new fluorophore in analytical biochemistry. N-Succinyl- and N-glutaryl-phenylalanine as well as N-benzoylarginine were coupled to 2-AA
