The Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide by Blood. George Senter’s Discovery of the Enzyme Involved
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hydrogen peroxide was discovered in 1818 by Louis Jacques Thénard (Fig. 1), professor at the Collège de France (1). He was examining the action of various acids on barium peroxide and at first thought that he had made modified forms of the acids. Eventually he concluded that the “eau oxygènée” was a new compound that contained more oxygen than water. The addition of various substances, including blood, caused the new compound to decompose, with evolution of oxygen. THE DECOMPOSITION OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE BY BLOOD. GEORGE SENTER’S DISCOVERY OF THE ENZYME INVOLVED
