โœฆ Synopsis


Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is known to degrade certain recalcitrant organic compounds such as phenol and substituted phenols. Here, for the first time we have shown HRP to be effective in degrading and precipitating industrially important azo dyes. For Remazol blue, the enzyme activity was found to be far better at pH 2.5 than at neutral pH. In addition, Remazol blue acts as a strong competitive inhibitor of HRP at neutral pH. Horseradish peroxidase shows broad substrate specificity toward a variety of azo dyes. Kinetic constants (K m app and V max app ) for two different dyes have been determined. In addition to providing a systematic analysis of the potential of HRP in degradation of dyes, this study opens up a new area on exploration of commercial dyes as inhibitors of enzymes. 2001

Ortho-, meta-, and para-phenylenediamines were polymerized using hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant and horseradish peroxidase as a catalyst in mixed solvents of 1,4-dioxane and water. The yield of the polymers was strongly dependent on solvent composition, and maximum yields were obtained at 15-30% 1,
