Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 124 words
A method for the purification of a peroxidase enzyme comprising forming a solution of a peroxidase enzyme and a protein fixative selected from the group consisting of tannic acid, tannins, monolignols, fulvic acids, lignan, humic acids, melanoidins, proanthcyanidins, stilbenes, depsides, lignin model compounds, soluble suberin, flavonoids, dihydroxyphenyl compounds, kerogen, gallic acid esters, phenolic acids, gallic acid amides, hexahydroxydiphenic glucose estes, polymeric phenols, bis (hydroxyphenyl) sulfones, bitumens, soluble lignite extracts, sulfonated phenols and naphthols and their copolymers, melamineglyoxal/glyoxylate-phenol/naphthol condensates; peat euphorbia, cassia, rose, tea, grape and saxifragea; sulfonated extracts, and bark extracts, and graft copolymers derived from said extracts and syntans; adding a non-solvent for said enzyme to said solution to cause said enzyme to precipitate, and redissolving said enzyme and the peroxidase is recovered.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 124 words
A method for the purification of a peroxidase enzyme comprising forming a solution of a peroxidase enzyme and a protein fixative selected from the group consisting of tannic acid, tannins, monolignols, fulvic acids, lignan, humic acids, melanoidins, proanthcyanidins, stilbenes, depsides, lignin model compounds, soluble suberin, flavonoids, dihydroxyphenyl compounds, kerogen, gallic acid esters, phenolic acids, gallic acid amides, hexahydroxydiphenic glucose estes, polymeric phenols, bis (hydroxyphenyl) sulfones, bitumens, soluble lignite extracts, sulfonated phenols and naphthols and their copolymers, melamineglyoxal/glyoxylate-phenol/naphthol condensates; peat euphorbia, cassia, rose, tea, grape and saxifragea; sulfonated extracts, and bark extracts, and graft copolymers derived from said extracts and syntans; adding a non-solvent for said enzyme to said solution to cause said enzyme to precipitate, and redissolving said enzyme and the peroxidase is recovered.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said peroxidase enzyme is a soybean peroxidase.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 2 wherein said protein fixative is tannic acid.
