Abstract
An aspect of the present invention provides a method that makes it possible to improve bilirubin oxidase (BOD) activity. The method for improving the BOD activity in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes the step of leaving, in a deoxygenated atmosphere, a BOD solution containing a BOD and a specific activity improving agent.
Claims5
A method for improving bilirubin oxidase activity, the method comprising the step of leaving, in a deoxygenated atmosphere, a bilirubin oxidase solution containing a bilirubin oxidase and an activity improving agent,
- the activity improving agent having an ABTS initial absorbance (A436) reduction rate (%) of not less than 0.10% and a DMBQ initial absorbance (A256) reduction rate (%) of not more than 10.00%.
A bilirubin oxidase product comprising:
- a container;
- and
- a bilirubin oxidase and an activity improving agent in the container,
- the container having an inner atmosphere which is deoxygenated, and
- the activity improving agent having an ABTS initial absorbance (A436) reduction rate (%) of not less than 0.10% and a DMBQ initial absorbance (A256) reduction rate (%) of not more than 10.00%.
A method for producing a highly active bilirubin oxidase, the method comprising the step of leaving, in a deoxygenated atmosphere, a bilirubin oxidase solution containing a bilirubin oxidase and an activity improving agent,
- the activity improving agent having an ABTS initial absorbance (A436) reduction rate (%) of not less than 0.10% and a DMBQ initial absorbance (A256) reduction rate (%) of not more than 10.00%.
