Patato lipoxygenase catalysed co-oxidation of β-carotene

摘要

Co-oxidation of β-carotene in the prsence of linoleic acid was catalysed by potato liposygenases. The rate of co-ocidation was dependent on the concentrationof both linoleic acid and β-carotene. The maximum rate of co-oxidation occurs at a molar ratio of linoleic acid to β-carotene of 16:1.
