| Summary: | Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is an enzyme of high interest due to its high implications relative to the medical and environmental sectors. In the current paper, an enzyme assay for the determination of CA activity is proposed and it is characterized by its simplicity and high practicability. It permits the straightforward comparison of CAs performance in physiological conditions. The methodology and the theoretical background of the evaluation method are explained in detail. Moreover, the presumed advantages over alternative assays are discussed. The assay has proven to be particularly useful for the screening of CA activity with respect to their application in CO<sub>2</sub>, capturing processes for further utilization or storage.
