摘要
A study was conducted to utilize ascorbate oxidase (AAO) from very immature starfruit for the enzymatic determination of ascorbic acid (AsA) in colored samples. The enzyme preparation was carried out by a combination of (NH4)(2)SO4 fractionation, DEAE-Toyopearl 650 M and ultrafiltration. A calibration curve for AsA was constructed by plotting the amount of AsA oxidized by the enzyme at a specified reaction time against the absorbance. The curve showed a linear relationship in the range of 0-100 mu g ml(-1) AsA used. Using the plot, the values of AsA in juice samples were determined and compared with the conventional 2,6-dichloroindophenol method. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
