Abstract
Abstract Economical oxidation of glucose is achieved by oxidation with an immobilized glucose oxidase-catalase composition in a reaction mixture at low temperatures below 15° C., preferably between 10° C. and the freezing point of the reaction mixture. The immobilized glucose oxidase-catalase composition preferably contains glucose oxidase and catalase bonded to hardened protein particles with the catalase activity being at least one-sixth of the glucose oxidase activity.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
105 words
A process for enzymatic oxidation of glucose with an immobilized glycose oxidase-catalase composition, which comprises performing the oxidation at a temperature of 2±1° C. in a reaction medium with an immobilized glucose oxidase-catalase composition consising essentially of glucose oxidase and catalase bound to hardened gelatin with a particle size of 10 to 100 μm, said composition having catalase activity expressed in Baker units at least one-sixth of the glucose oxidase activity expressed in Sarett units and said composition being present in an amount sufficient to provide 500 to 5000 sarett units of glucose oxidase and 200-2000 Baker units of calatase per liter of reaction medium.
