A Study on Activity of SOD in CTAB Reverse Microeinulsion

Abstract

The pyrogallic method for determining the activity of SOD is studied in the aqueous solution and in the CTAB/n-pentanol/n-octane/water microemulsion. The required generation ran of the substrate O₂ is obtained in he reverse microemulsion by increasing the apparent pH and dielectric constant. The activity of SOD is finally determined in such a system and a bell-shaped profile is recorded. But subactivity is found only due to the decrease of the substrate concentration and the high pH value
