Does anyone have a protocol for measuring the extinction coefficient for L-DOPA? Also, is there an acceptable range for this value?

Thanks,
Jen

Dear Jen, I have exactly the same problem. There is actually a protocol on this website from the Sinsabaugh Lab, however there is no detailled information given on activity of the HRP used. They provide 1.66/μmol for the extinction coefficient. I'd be glad to hear how you're doing, we can eventually share experiences if you're interested.

Greetings,
Stefan

Hi Stefan, I've tried to upload the protocol for measuring the extinction coefficient here. Hopefully it worked! I'd be happy to chat about it. My email is jndenbow@ucdavis.edu email me with a follow up!

Cheers,
Jennifer
