  • Inhibition of polyphenol oxidase by sulfur dioxide

    Creator:
    Sayavedra-Soto, Luis Alberto
    Abstract:
    Inhibition of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) by sulfur dioxide (SO₂) was studied using three different sources of PPO (banana, mushroom, and pear). Several methods to detect PPO activity were tested due to SO₂, interference in some of the assays. The method using 2-nitro-5-thiobenzoic acid (TNB) to react with the quinones was...
