ABSTRACT:
Glycerol oxidase II is an oxidizing enzyme of glycerol characterized by its ability to oxidize glycerol in the presence of oxygen to form hydrogen peroxide and glyceraldehyde. This action of the present enzyme is the same as that of the enzyme glycerol oxidase I disclosed in U.S. application Ser. No. 897,695 filed on Apr. 19, 1978. However, this enzyme has characteristic properties in substrate specificity, optimum and stable pH, optimum temperature for action, substrate affinity (Michaelis constant glycerol). This enzyme is produced by culturing a microorganism belonging to the genus Penicillium.
