Description

Aryl Alcohol Oxidase CAS NO 9028-77-7 is a highly specific oxidoreductase enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of aromatic alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes. This biocatalyst is critical for applications requiring selective oxidation under mild conditions, offering a sustainable alternative to harsh chemical oxidants. It is essential for research and development in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical, and biotechnology industries, where precise enzymatic transformations are paramount.

Application

• Biocatalysis for Fine Chemical Synthesis: Selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol derivatives in the production of pharmaceutical intermediates and flavor/fragrance compounds.
• Enzymatic Biosensor Development: Used as a key component in amperometric biosensors for the detection of aromatic alcohols or phenols in environmental monitoring and food safety.
• Bioremediation and Waste Treatment: Degradation of lignin-derived aromatic pollutants and phenolic compounds in industrial wastewater.
• Diagnostic Reagent Manufacturing: Employed in enzymatic assay kits for clinical diagnostics and biochemical research.
• Pulp and Paper Industry: Investigation in enzymatic bleaching processes and modification of lignin.
• Academic and Industrial R&D: Fundamental studies in enzymology, metabolic pathway engineering, and the development of novel biotransformation processes.

Quality Control

Our enzyme products are manufactured and tested under stringent quality management systems. Each batch of Aryl Alcohol Oxidase is characterized for specific activity, purity, and stability to ensure consistent performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing parameters such as activity units, protein content, and purity is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
