Title: Catalyzing Hydrogen Peroxidase
Post by: gcwill on May 01, 2021, 09:35:01 PM

Hi guys,
Does anyone know what is the minimum concentration of peroxidase necessary to catalyze the break down of 1mg or hydrogen peroxidase? How can this concentration be calculated or determined?

That's not how it works.

Single molecule of enzyme is enough to decompose any amount of H₂O₂. Question is: how long will it take?
