ABSTRACT:
An isolated sorbitol oxidase from Xanthomonas maltophilia FERM BP-4512 is disclosed. The oxidase catalyzes the reaction of D-sorbitol+O.sub.2 .fwdarw.D-glucose+H.sub.2 O.sub.2, has a substrate specificity for D-sorbitol, D-mannitol, D-xylitol, and D-arabitol, has an optimum pH of 6.5 to 7.5, and has a molecular weight of 54 kD as determined by gel filtration or 43 kD as determined by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme can be used for measuring a polyol in a sample and as a reagent in a kit used for determining the presence of D-sorbitol.
