abstract        background and objective: peroxidases catalyze protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation. the activity of these enzymes in nerve cells is involved in causing disorders such as alzheimer's and parkinson's disease. this study investigated the effect of citrus aurantium, foeniculum vulgare and rosmarinus officinalis essential oils on activity of peroxidase enzyme.       me...

The presence of peroxidase in the uterus of the estrogeninjected ovariectomized rat and in the Walker carcinosarcoma No. 256 of rats has been reported previously (1, 2). In view of the fact that both these tissues undergo rapid proliferation, it was thought of interest to survey several other rat tissues to determine whether peroxidase might be generally associated with proliferation. Bancroft ...

The peroxidase/reverse micelle (RM) system effectively catalyzed the oxidation reaction in cyclohexane, while peroxidase from bitter gourd in aqueous buffer exhibited low catalytic activity. The oxidation of methyl parathion (MPT) has been optimized with effects of pH in the water pools, concentration of peroxidase and degree of surfactant hydration (Wo). The peroxidase/RM system showed a stron...

Ligninolytic extracellular enzymes, including lignin peroxidase, are topical owing to their high redox potential and prospective industrial applications. The prospective applications of lignin peroxidase span through sectors such as biorefinery, textile, energy, bioremediation, cosmetology, and dermatology industries. The litany of potentials attributed to lignin peroxidase is occasioned by its...

abstract kinetic properties of root of peroxidase of gundelia tournefortii investigated at different ph, temperature and different inhibitors. maximum activity of peroxidase achieved at ph 5.5-6 in according to type of substrate. activity of peroxidase increased at constant concentration of h2o2 and different concentration of guaiacol, catechol and pyrogallol. the maximum activity in presence o...
