the electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) is presented. cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (ppo). a redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. the influence of various parameters such as ph, scan rat...

The electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. Cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (PPO). A redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. The influence of various parameters such as pH,...

background & aim: glycyrrhiza l. (fabaceae) consists of perennial herbs grow in sandy soils with hard lightness. three species of the genus grow in iran, among them g. glabra l. has the widest distribution. it is well known in english as licorice and the root extract includes flavonoids and glycyrrhizin are used widely in medicine, food industry, tobacco products and other industries. liqui...

in order to better understand how to prevent enzymatic greenning, it is important to understand  kinetic properties of polyphenol oxidase.  we investigated the effect of sds on the rate of catechol oxidation by small cherry tomato partial purified ppo. ppo activity increased with increasing sds concentration. the most effective concentration of sds was 0.8, 1 and 1.25 mm in according to ph and ...

polyphenol oxidase (ppo) from tomatoes was extracted and partially purified through  (nh4)2so4 precipitation, dialysis and ion exchange chromatography. the activity of polyphenol oxidase was investigated in solanum lycopersicum. spectrophotometric method was used to assay the enzyme activity and the kinetic constants - maximum enzyme velocity (vmax) and michealis - menten constant (km). of the ...

in this study, the effect of salicylic acid (sa) on root knot nematode (meloidogyne javanica) pathogenicity and induction of some defense mechanisms such as polyphenol oxidase enzyme activity and total phenol accumulation were investigated in greenhouse conditions. we demonstrated that application of 5mm salicylic acid through foliar spray could induce resistance against m. javanica in tomato. ...

objective: polyphenol oxidase or ppo (ec 1.14.18.1) is considered the enzyme responsible for quality deterioration and browning in different fruits during postharvest period. the objective of this study was to evaluate the antibrowning (inhibition of polyphenol oxidase activity) effect of cysteine, ascorbic acid, citric acid, kojic acid and glycine at two different ph (6 and 7) in  hawthorn. me...

The effects of increasing concentrations of boron (0, 0.1, 1, 10 and 20 mM) as boric acid on the rate of germination and polyphenol oxidase activities in embryo and endosperm tissues of maize seeds (Zea mays L. cv. Arifiye) were studied. The germination percentage of maize seeds was not affected by boron concentrations up to 10 mM, and decreased by 20 mM. Distilled water and lower boron concent...

The inhibitory effect of onion extract on cassava leaf polyphenol oxidase was investigated. The polyphenol oxidase from cassava leaves was strongly inhibited by various anti-browning agents such as L-ascorbic acid and L-cysteine. The percentage of inhibition increased with the increased of anti-browning agents concentrations. The addition of heated onion extract exhibited a stronger inhibitory ...
