Dr. Harold Durkin, Business Development Manager, describes Chloroperoxidase as a catalyst for oxidation of alcohols and double bonds that allows these reactions to proceed at room temperature to high yields without by-products. "This catalyst fits in well with the green chemistry movement and should be of particular interest to the fragrance industry where oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes is a key route to aroma chemicals."
The new industrial grade of liquid Chloroperoxidase is designated as Catalog #502 and has an Rz value of ~1.2 and a price of $7.50 per KU in gram quantities. Bio-Research Products already markets a liquid CPO (#501) and a lyo CPO (#503). Bio-Research Products' CPO enzyme is derived from Caldariomyces fumago.
Bio-Research Products also produces industrial grades of its Soybean Peroxidase (SBP) enzyme. SBP #514 (liquid) is useful for the polymerization of conductive polymers such as polyaniline and SBP #X516-IND (powder) is offered for the bioremediation of waste water and manure odors.
