The lutropin-induced depletion of ascorbate in corpora lutea of albino-rat ovary is shown to be associated with the induction of peroxidase in corpora lutea. An inverse relationship between ascorbate depletion and peroxidase activity was established in a time-course study with lutropin. Analyses made at different phases of the reproductive cycle are in accord with this relationship. It is sugge...

Rotavirus infections in intestinal tissues of animals or in tissue culture cells were detected by the immunocytochemical unlabeled soluble enzyme peroxidase antiperoxidase method. Comparison of the immunofluorescence and peroxidase antiperoxidase immunological staining techniques revealed that the two methods are equally sensitive for detection of rotavirus-infected cells. The peroxidase antipe...

Development of sensitive enzymatic methods for hydrogen peroxide is key for the quantification of several bioconstituents such as glucose, triglycerides, creatinine, and uric acid and so on. Hydrogen peroxide released by the oxidase enzymes are quantified by peroxidase enzyme involving spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, chemiluminisence, potentiometric sensing, amperometric, coulometric and such o...

BACKGROUND This investigation describes the relationship between glutathione peroxidase activities, an antioxidant enzyme, and the oxidative status in diabetic rat blood. METHODS Malondialdehyde level and glutathione peroxidase activity were measured by spectrophotometric techniques. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Malondialdehyde content in the diabetic rats group was increased compared to that in...

BACKGROUND The alterations of the glutathione peroxidase enzyme complex system occur in physiological conditions such as aging and oxidative stress consequent to strenuous exercise. METHODS Authors optimize the spectrophotometric method to measure glutathione peroxidase activity in rat red blood cell membranes. RESULTS The optimization, when applied to age paired rats, both nulligravid and ...

results it was found that in all studied wavelengths with or without methylene blue (mb), the level of all studied enzymes decreased remarkably when compared to dark controls. it was observed that the synthesis level of sod, glutathione peroxidase gp, and glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase g-6-pd in e. coli decreased significantly in red light with respect to white, blue, and green light in seaw...

The white rot fungus Pycnoporus cinnabarinus was characterized with respect to its set of extracellular phenoloxidases. Laccase was produced as the predominant extracellular phenoloxidase in conjunction with low amounts of an unusual peroxidase. Neither lignin peroxidase nor manganese peroxidase was detected. Laccase was produced constitutively during primary metabolism. Addition of the most ef...
