Optimization of methods for aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase.
Clinical Chemistry, 1978 Abstract Conditions for accurate measurement of catalytic activity of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase in human serum have been reinvestigated. The basic variables (kind of buffer, buffer concentration, pH, ion effects, and the influence of pyridoxal-5-phosphate) can now be considered optimized.

Yale - Alanine Aminotransferase v1 [PDF]
, 2019 Summary: Procedure used to measure the Alanine Amino activity in blood, plasma, and serum. Alanine Amino (ALT) activity is measured by the enzymatically coupled reactions of ALT (to form pyruvate from alanine and α-ketoglutarate) and Lactate dehydrogenase (conversion of pyruvate to lactate with oxdiation of NADH to NAD).
