Clinical Analysis. A wide range of clinically important substances can be detected and quantitated using chemiluminescence or bioluminescence methods. Coupled enzyme assay protocols permit the measurement of kinase, dehydrogenase, and oxidases or the substrates of these enzymes as exemplified by reactions of glucose, creatine phosphate, and bile acid in the following ... 

Sulfate reducers can use a wide range of terminal electron acceptors, and sulfate can be replaced by nitrate as a respiratory substrate. Molybdenum-containing enzymes have been discovered in SRB (also see later discussion) and, in particular, D. desulfuricans, grown in the presence of nitrate, generates a complex enzymatic system containing the following molybdenum enzymes (a) aldehyde oxidoreduc-tase (AOR), which reduces adehydes to carboxylic acids (b) formate dehydrogenase (FDH), which oxidizes formate to CO2 and (c) nitrate reductase (the first isolated from a SRB), which completes the enzy-... 

Defects of substrate utilization. Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) deficiency can cause alterations of pyruvate metabolism, as can defects of pyruvate carboxylase, as discussed earlier. Over 200 patients have been described with a disturbance of the PDH complex (PDHC) [15,16]. The clinical picture includes several phenotypes ranging from a severe, devastating metabolic disease in the neonatal period to a benign, recurrent syndrome in older children. There is considerable overlap clinically and biochemically with other disorders (see below).
