Results: Final NADH concentrations were calculated to be off by a factor of ten due to unexpectedly low absorbancies.  Assay was repeated with increased ethanol concentrations (0.5-10mM), but absorbancies remained lower than expected.

Disscussion: It was determined that this assay was now sensitive enough for the range of ethanol concentrations that will need to be detected in our project, therefore we will use other means of ethanol detection using simple primary alcohol detection methods using oxidizing reagents.</font>

Hexokinase coupled assay used to quantitate amounts of cyanobacteria glucose secretion.
    Rxn:
  • 1. glucose + ATP --Hx-> G-6-P + ADP
  • 2. G-6-P + NAD+ --G-6-PDeH-> G-6-P + NADH

Reaction used Glucose assay kit (Genzyme) containing 2000U/L Hexokinase reagent and 4000U/L G-6-P DeH and measured glucose concentrations ranging from 0.05mM-0.25mM and absorbances were measured at 340.0 nm.
