Reinheitszahl (RZ) is the ratio of absorbance due to hemin (A403, Soret region) to absorbance due to protein (A275). This ratio (A403/A275) is not a measure of enzyme activity. Products using this method include, but are not limited to, P1709, P2088, P6140, P6782, P8125, P8170, P8250, P8375, P8415, and P8651.

Cuvettes and thermostatted spectrophotometer
Please consult the Safety Data Sheet for information regarding hazards and safe handling practices.
Use ultrapure water (≥18 MΩ×cm resistivity at 25 °C) for the preparation of reagents.
Phosphate Buffer (100 mM Potassium Phosphate Buffer, pH 6.0 at 20 °C) – Add 17.36 mL of 1.0 M Potassium phosphate monobasic solution (Product No. P8709). Add 2.64 mL of 1.0 M Potassium phosphate dibasic solution (Product No. P8584) and adjust to final volume of 200 mL using ultrapure water. Adjust to pH 6.0 at 20 °C using 1 N KOH or 1 N HCl. Store the Phosphate Buffer on ice.
Peroxidase Solution – Prepare a 10 mg/mL solution of peroxidase in COLD Phosphate Buffer.
