Özet

Thermal inactivation kinetics of crude peroxidase (POX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) in fresh pinto beans were studied over the temperature range of 55-90 degrees C. The inactivation of both enzymes followed first-order kinetics. The biphasic inactivation curves for POX indicate the existence of several isoenzymes of varying heat stability. In the temperature range of 55-70 degrees C, the activation energies (E-a) of POX were 46.5 kcal.mol(-1) for the heat-labile portion and 37.6 kcal.mol(-1) for the heat-stable portion. On the other hand, the LOX enzyme had an E-a value of 42.26 kcal.mol(-1) at 55-75 degrees C and 49.1 kcal.mol(-1) at 55-90 degrees C.
