Handling Precaution
Lactoperoxidase catalyzes the oxidation of iodide to iodine by hydrogen peroxide. This activity provides a gentle, specific alternative to chloramine T for the radioiodination of proteins and DNA.
Handling Precaution
1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which oxidizes 1 μmol ABTS (Cat. No. 11557) per minute at pH 6.0 and 25 °C
