Abstract: | Using homogeneous cytochrome P-450, we have shown that the well-known metyrapone-dithionite reduced cytochrome P-450 complex is specific for the cytochrome P-450b induced by phenobarbital. A linear relationship was observed between the absorbance of metyrapone-reduced cytochrome P-450 complex and the one of CO-reduced cytochrome P-450 complex, the usual method for the determination of cytochrome P-450. A method has been proposed for the specific determination of the cytochrome P-450b. |
