Résumé

L'effet de la phenazine methosulfate (PMS) sur l'activité de plusieurs enzymes oxydatifs a été étudié. En tant que transporteur d'électron, la PMS a un rôle important sur la coloration des isoenzymes séparés par électrophorèse en gel d'amidon. En ce qui concerne la déshydrogénase lactique, un excès de PMS provoque une coloration diffuse, alors que dans le cas de la déshydrogénase succinique on observe l'apparition de «bandes négatives» qui n'ont pas encore été décrites.
