Molar extinction coefficients of precipitated lead sulfide (PbS) and polymerized diaminobenzidine (polyDAB) have been determined at wavelengths of 450 nm and 480 nm, respectively, for quantitative histochemical analysis of phosphatase reactions. These values are essential for the conversion of cytophotometric (mean integrated) absorbance values to absolute units of substrate converted per unit time and volume of tissue. This conversion allows direct comparison of histochemical and biochemical data. The molar extinction coefficient of PbS at 450 nm was found to be 3,800 and therefore, per mole phosphate liberated, the molar extinction coefficient is 5,700 because 3 moles phosphate are captured by 2 moles lead at neutral or alkaline pH. Parallel experiments with the cerium-DAB method revealed that the molar extinction coefficient of polyDAB at 480 nm is 5,500 with respect to liberated phosphate. The molar extinction coefficients were applied for comparison of data from biochemical and histochemical assays of glucose-6-phosphatase activity in rat livers. A significant correlation was found between both sets of data. The values were in the same order of magnitude with histochemical values approximately 1.4 times higher than biochemical values.

Anti-hepatitis effect of the olean-9(11),12-diene-3 b, 30-diol 3 b, o-hemisuccinate Na Salt (III b), a glycyrrhetinic acid derivative, was studied in CCl4 induced mouse. The mouse was administered i.p. with 0.1 mole/kg or 0.2 mole/kg of III b, then followed by 31.4 microliters/kg of CCl4. III b was shown to promote the activity of the glucose-6-phosphatase, lower the content of malondialdehyde, and prevent the activity from the soluble enzyme(i.e. GPT, GOT, LDH) from flowing out in the serum enzyme and liver homogenate. III b had the similar anti-peroxidation effect as vitamin E and can maintain the liver function.
