Published: May 2002

An enzymatic fluorometric assay for pyridoxal with pyridoxal dehydrogenase was developed. The detection limit was about 10 pmol: the calibration curve of pyridoxal showed high linearity (r=0.993). The values obtained by this method correlated well with those by the HPLC method. The enzyme had a high specificity for pyridoxal, and thus animal samples could be directly analyzed without separation of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate by column chromatography.
