Polyphenoloxidase from Starfruit (Averrhoa carambola, L.) I

Polyphenoloxidase (PPO) was z50lated from starfruit (Averrhoa carambola, L.) and purified by acetone precipitation and dialysis. The optimum pH for the aCl}tone purified PPO catalysed oxidation of catechol was found to be pH 7.2 Heat 'inactivation studies showed that the enzyme was heat-labi...
