Биохимия/физиол Действия

Nα-Benzoyl-DL-arginine β-naphthylamide hydrochloride (BANA) helps to determine the activities of cathepsin B and papain. BANA test is also useful in identifying the number of periodontal sites with periodontal pathogens. Presence of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), synthesized by oral bacteria in dental plaque or tongue coating can be colorimetrically confirmed by their ability to hydrolyze N-benzoyl-DL-arginine-2-naphthylamide.
