ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The quantity of ammonia in a sample to be measur- ed for ammonia content can be determined by: (A) contacting the sample with L-glutamate dehydrogenase in the presence of reduced nicotinamide- adenine dinucleotide or reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate and .alpha.-ketoglutarate to produce glutamate in a quantity corresponding to the ammonia content in the sample; (B) catalyzing the resultant mixture by L-glutamate oxidase in the presence of oxygen to produce hydrogen peroxide in a quantity corresponding to the glutamate content in the resultant mixture; (C) measuring the quantity of hydrogen peroxide produced or the production rate thereof; and (D) calculating the ammonia content from the quantity of hydrogen peroxide produced or the produc- tion rate thereof thus measured. In accordance with the method of the present inven- tion described above, it has become possible to determine the quantity of ammonia with high sensitivity in a short period of time by using as a signal a measura- ble value associated with hydrogen peroxide via a con- tinuous autoanalyzing system.
