We describe a simple, non-radioactive, semi-automated method for measuring lymphocyte ecto-5'-nucleotidase activity in isolated cell homogenates. The method which uses inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) as a substrate was optimized and requires a total of 4 x 10(6) lymphocytes. The reference range obtained (38.7-180.0 nmol/h per mg protein; means = 106.6) agrees with other isotopic methods which use 14C-IMP. The simplicity, sensitivity (lower limit 10, upper limit 400 nmol/h per mL) and precision (at 114 nmol/h per mL, interday 4.2% s.d., n = 20; intraday 5.8%, n = 10) makes this method suitable for routine clinical laboratory use.
