Clearance of 0-100 mg/L concentrations of galactose from the blood depends on nutrient hepatic blood flow. We can measure such concentrations, which was not previously possible, by a continuous-flow method involving the use of galactose oxidase and peroxidase, the latter being coupled to a fluorogenic substrate, p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid. Interfering substances in the peroxidase reaction are removed by zinc/alkali precipitation. Sensitivity is maximized by using saturating concentrations of the enzymes and substrate. In prepared plasma test samples with galactose concentrations of 10, 40, 70, and 100 mg/L, the within-run CV's ranged from 2.1 to 8.6%, and day-to-day CV's from 2.2 to 17.2%, the largest CV's being for the 10 mg/L concentration. Normal subjects are shown to clear galactose more efficiently than subjects with moderate cirrhosis.
