Optimisation of onion peroxidase-catalysed formation of aureusidin using 2',4',6',3,4-pentahydroxy chalcone as substrate

Previous investigations demonstrated that crude peroxidase (POD) obtained from onion solid wastes has the ability to catalyse the formation of the aurone aureusidin (ARS), using 2´,4´,6´,3,4-pentahydroxy chalcone (PHC) as substrate, although this reaction under physiological conditions is mediated b...
