Spectrophotometric determination of benzoic acid based on inhibitive effect on tyrosinase enzyme
A simple method for detection of benzoic acid in food products has been developed based on inhibitive effect on tyrosinase enzyme. A mixture of tyrosinase, phenol and 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone (MBTH) gave a maroon coloured solution which was bleached upon addition of benzoic acid. The w...
