Abstract: Three methods of synthesis of immunoglobulin conjugates with malate, lactate and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases, involving the sodium metaperiodate oxidation of immunoglobulin carbohydrate component, use of water-soluble carbodiimide and the one-step glutaraldehyde technique, were compared. The glutaraldehyde method was shown to give immunoglobulin-dehydrogenase conjugates with high catalytic and im-munochemical activity, which may be useful for enzyme-immunoassay.
