Abstract

A method for the determination of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of myofibrils of big head carp by using ion chromatography was introduced. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and orthophosphate (Pi) were separated completely. Recoveries for ATP, ADP and Pi were 98+/-5%, 97+/-4% and 98+/-5%, respectively. Pi liberated from ATP during reaction was monitored by ion chromatography using the suggested method. This method was applicable to the determination of myofibrils ATPase activity for quick quality evaluation of surimi.
