Catalase is a common enzyme found in nearly all living organisms exposed to oxygen.

Catalase is a tetramer of four polypeptide chains, each over 500 amino acids long .< ref name = Boon_a > It contains four porphyrin heme ( iron ) groups that allow the enzyme to react with the hydrogen peroxide.

Catalase was first noticed in 1818 when Louis Jacques Thénard, who discovered H < sub > 2 </ sub > O < sub > 2 </ sub > ( hydrogen peroxide ), suggested its breakdown is caused by an unknown substance.

Catalase is usually located in a cellular, bipolar environment organelle called the peroxisome.

Catalase is also universal among plants, and many fungi are also high producers of the enzyme.

Catalase is used in the food industry for removing hydrogen peroxide from milk prior to cheese production.

Catalase is an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide in many organisms.

Catalase, which is concentrated in peroxisomes located next to mitochondria, reacts with the hydrogen peroxide to catalyze the formation of water and oxygen.

Catalase can also catalyze the oxidation, by hydrogen peroxide, of various metabolites and toxins, including formaldehyde, formic acid, phenols, acetaldehyde and alcohols.

* Catalase test on nutrient agar tests for the production of catalase enzyme, which splits hydrogen peroxide and releases oxygen gas.

Catalase and superoxide dismutase ameliorate the damaging effects of hydrogen peroxide and superoxide by converting these compounds into oxygen and water, benign molecules.

He added that he also stresses the works of these favorite masters on tour, especially Mahler's First and Fourth symphonies, and Das Lied Von der Erde, and Bruckner's Sixth -- which is rarely played -- and Seventh.

The test of form is fidelity to the experience, a gauge also accepted by the abstract expressionist painters.

Though he is also concerned with freeing dance from pedestrian modes of activity, Merce Cunningham has selected a very different method for achieving his aim.

The answers derived by these means may determine not only the temporal organization of the dance but also its spatial design, special slips designating the location on the stage where the movement is to be performed.

It is because there is not only darkness but also light that our situation becomes inexplicable.

but there is also compassion.

also he is a drunk, and has lost his job on that account.

And if I have gone into so much detail about so small a work, that is because it is also so typical a work, representing the germinal form of a conflict which remains essential in Mann's writing: the crude sketch of Piepsam contains, in its critical, destructive and self-destructive tendencies, much that is enlarged and illuminated in the figures of, for instance, Naphta and Leverkuhn.

By `` image '' is meant not only a visual presentation, but also remembered sensations of any of the five senses plus the feelings which are immediately conjoined therewith.

he is questioning, also, every epistemology which stems from Hume's presupposition that experience is merely sense data in abstraction from causal efficacy, and that causal efficacy is something intellectually imputed to the world, not directly perceived.

it is true that they are also extremely dull.

Now the detective must save his own skin by informing on the girl he loves, who is also the real murderer.

But it is also the climax to one of the absorbing chapters in our current political history.

Since a civilizational crisis involves also a crisis in private interests and in the ruling class, reaction is normally found among those who feel themselves to be among the ruling class.

`` The Rocking Horse Winner '' is also a story about a boy's love for his mother.

Evidence is plentiful that early and later also he has been indebted to the Gothic romancers, who deal in extravagant horror, to the symbolists writing at the end of the preceding century, and in particular to the stream-of-consciousness novelists, Henry James and James Joyce among them.

In the first instance, `` mimesis '' is here used to mean the recalling of experience in terms of vivid images rather than in terms of abstract ideas or conventional designations.

A dominant motive is the poet's longing for his homeland and its boyhood associations: `` Not men-folk, but the fields where I would stray, The stones where as a child I used to play ''.

So in these pages the term `` technology '' is used to include any and all means which could amplify, project, or augment man's control over himself and over other men.

But what a super-Herculean task it is to winnow anything of value from the mud-beplastered arguments used so freely, particularly since such common use is made of cliches and stereotypes, in themselves declarations of intellectual bankruptcy.

This text from Dr. Huxley is sometimes used by enthusiasts to indicate that they have the permission of the scientists to press the case for a wonderful unfoldment of psychic powers in human beings.

The men who speculate on these institutions have, for the most part, come to at least one common conclusion: that many of the great enterprises and associations around which our democracy is formed are in themselves autocratic in nature, and possessed of power which can be used to frustrate the citizen who is trying to assert his individuality in the modern world ''.

Berlin is merely being used by Moscow as a stalking horse.
