Urea, creatinine, creatine, triglycerides, or the like in a specimen can be accurately determined by terminating an isocitrate dehydrogenase reaction by addition of a chelating agent in a system wherein NADP+ formed from NADPH is reproduced into NADPH in the conjoint presence of an isocitrate, metallic ions such as magnesium or manganese ions, and isocitrate dehydrogenase in assaying a substance by means of a reaction of NADPH to NADP+. |
