Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a method capable of detecting activity of an enzyme that strictly recognizes a substrate, such as acetylcholinesterase (AChE). There is provided a method for detecting activity of an enzyme in a biological sample using a microdevice, the method including a step of bringing the biological sample into contact with a substrate analog or a natural substrate, and a compound represented by General Formula (I) below or a salt thereof, wherein the substrate analog or the natural substrate generates a compound A having a thiol group (R—SH), a selenol group (R—SeH), or a poly sulfur atom (R—(S)n-H) (R is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group, and n is 1 to 5) by a reaction with the enzyme, and fluorescence is observed or measured, the fluorescence being emitted or enhanced from a fluorescent product generated by the reaction of the compound represented by General Formula (I) or the salt thereof with the thiol group, the selenol group, or the poly sulfur atom.
