Abstract
The rate of change of pH caused by the hydrolysis of urea was measured for urease solutions of 18 different concentrations. Concentrations were converted into an activity, A (measured in IU/cm3), by using a titrimetric method to assay the urease sample. For activities in the range 0.6-38 IU/cm3, A was related to the initial rate of change of pH, (dpH/dt)0, (measured in s-1) by the empirical relationship: A = 549(dpH/dt)0-1423(dpH/dt)2(0). Values of (dpH/dt)0 were sensitive to changes in the urease activity of about 0.6 IU/cm3.Entities:
