1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic Acid (ACC), the immediate precursor of ethylene is routinely assayed by converting it into ethylene with NaOCl, and the ethylene liberated is then determined by gas chromatography (MCC Lizada, SF Yang 1979 Anal Biochem 100: 140-145). However, certain materials which may be present in crude plant extracts or in enzyme reaction mixtures interfere with this assay procedure. Mono, and di-alkyl amines cause poor yields of ethylene from ACC. Ethanol in the presence of NH(3) or amines but in the absence of ACC can produce ethylene under the assay procedure. The characteristics of these interfering reactions were studied and precautions to avoid these problems are suggested. Recovery of ACC during its extraction and purification from plant extracts were tested and are discussed.
