Characterisation of polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase and the role in browning of loquat fruit

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD) were extracted from a new loquat fruit cultivar (Ninghaibai) and characterised using reliable spectrophotometric methods. In both cases, the optimum pH for PPO was 4.5 and 5 for POD, and their optimum temperatures were 30 and 35°C, respectively. Both enz...
