respect to both COX-1 and COX-2 activity. The assay can be used to assess the relative selectivity of plant-derived inhibitors on COX-1 and COX-2. Assay conditions were optimized for both enzymes with respect to concentration of cofactors (l-epinephrine‚ reduced glutathione‚ and hematin)‚ activation time (enzyme and cofactors)‚ reaction time‚ and pH. Moreover‚ the kinetic parameters‚ Km and Kcat.‚ of both enzymes were estimated. Five COX inhibitors were used to validate the assay‚ indomethacin
