NADPH oxidation catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase is considerably increased by scopoletin and superoxide dismutase. These effects were used to develop a method for measuring H2O2 in a horseradish peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and scopoletin system by measuring the NADPH oxidation rate. The optimal concentration of each reactant was determined. H2O2 could be detected and measured when it was present free in the medium or when it was produced by an H2O2-generating system, such as glucose-glucose oxidase or NADPH oxidase from thyroid plasma membranes. H2O2 was measured either by taking aliquots of the incubation medium or by placing NADPH directly in the medium and following the kinetics of NADPH oxidation. This latter approach required smaller amounts of biological material. In contrast to other methods, the H2O2 which is measured is regenerated. This method is 10 times more sensitive than the standard scopoletin method for H2O2 measurement and will detect a H2O2 production rate as low as 0.2 nmol per hour. The method is particularly suitable for biological systems in which small quantities of biological material are available.
