Principle of LDH-MTT Assay NAD+ NADH Initially: LDH, Lactate, Diaphorase, MTTox MTTox Pyruvate Diaphorase LDH www.bioassaysys.com Lactate MTTred Very fast Relatively slow When NAD+ presents in the sample, it is converted to NADH in LDH and lactate. MTTox uses NADH to oxidize into MTTred. The NADH is thus converted back to NAD+. The enzyme cycle starts over. Once the cycle starts, NADH concentration in the assay is not changing = [NAD]+[NADH] in the sample

Why Mannitol? • Mannitol is a natural sugar alcohol sweetener. • Mannitol is especially useful as an additive to food and pharmaceuticals • It has low caloric and cariogenic properties • It is not metabolized by the body • It has a cool sweet taste • Currently mannitol is produced by hydrogenating a 1:1 fructose/glucose syrup • Very high temperatures, pressure and a Raney nickel catalyst • Needs highly purified substrates • Energy intensive • Costly purification • Low yield (15%) • Enzymatic catalysis reducing fructose to mannitol • Potential applications to other dehydrogenases
Overall Objective • Glucose fructose using a thermostable glucose isomerase • Triple mutant of Thermotoga neapolitana xylose isomerase (TNXI 1F1) • Optimized for high activity at 60°C, and high activity at pH 6.0 while maintaining glucose activity • Fructose mannitol • NADH regeneration from cathodic current pulls reaction towards mannitol production
