Unit Definition
One unit corresponds to the amount of enzyme which increases the absorbance at 280 nm by 0.001 per minute at pH 2.0 and 37 °C (Hemoglobin, Catalog No. 51290, as substrate); 15,000 absorbance units as described above are equivalent to ∼1 Bergmeyer unit. One Bergmeyer unit is the amount of enzyme which hydrolyzes 1 μmole Acetyl-L-phenyl-3,5-diiod
