## Abstract Studies exploring the effect of two nonaqueous solvents on enzyme activity were done using chloroperoxidase as a model system. Chloroperoxidase produced by __Caldariomyces fumago__ is a bifunctional enzyme with halogenating activity at pH 3 and peroxidation activity at pH 5 to 6. Methan
When performing enzyme catalysed reactions in organic solvents the agitation method may have an influence on the result. It has been observed that stirring with magnet bars may cause a considerable decrease in the reaction rate, probably due to damage to the enzyme. This applies to both free and imm
