Enzyme-catalyzed decomposition of dibenzoyl peroxide in organic solvents.

چکیده
Catalytic activity of catalase (CAT, EC 1.11.1.6), immobilized on carbon black NORIT and soot PM-100, with respect to decomposition of dibenzoyl peroxide (BPO) in non-aqueous media (acetonitrile and tetrachloromethane), was investigated with a quantitative UV-spectrophotometrical approach. Progress of the above reaction was controlled by selected kinetic parameters: the apparent Michaelis constant (Km(app)), the specific rate constant (k(sp)), the activation energy (Ea), the maximum reaction rate (Vmax), and the Arrhenius' pre-exponential factor (Z0). Conclusions on the tentative mechanism of the catalytic process observed were drawn from the calculated values of the Gibbs energy of activation (deltaG*), the enthalpy of activation (deltaH*), and entropy of activation (deltaS*).

Novel tungsten carbide nanorods: an intrinsic peroxidase mimetic with high activity and stability in aqueous and organic solvents.
Tungsten carbide nanorods (WC NRs) are demonstrated for the first time to possess intrinsic peroxidase-like activity towards typical peroxidase substrates, such as 3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and ο-phenylenediamine (OPD) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The reactions catalyzed by these nanorods follow the Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The excellent catalytic performance of ...

Introduction: Simultaneous development of technology is composed with environmental hazardous with heavy-metals and organic solvents and thus toxic catalysts/organic solvents must be replaced with biocatalysts and water. Urease is a hydrolase enzyme and urease-urea can be considered a safe source of toxic ammonia in synthesis of nifedipine. Nifedipine is an antihypertensive drug synthesized by ...

متن کاملSoil organic matter-hydrogen peroxide dynamics in the treatment of contaminated soils and groundwater using catalyzed H2O2 propagations (modified Fenton's reagent).
The interactions between catalyzed H(2)O(2) propagations (CHP-i.e. modified Fenton's reagent) and soil organic matter (SOM) during the treatment of contaminated soils and groundwater was studied in a well-characterized surface soil. The fate of two fractions of SOM, particulate organic matter (POM) and nonparticulate organic matter (NPOM), during CHP reactions was evaluated using concentrations...
