| palmitoyl CoA oxidase | <enzyme> In peroxisomes; forms hydrogen peroxide Registry number: EC 1.3.3.- Synonym: palmityl CoA oxidase, palmitoyl coenzyme a oxidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| malate oxidase | <enzyme> Fad-dependent Registry number: EC 1.1.3.3 (26 Jun 1999) |
| veratryl alcohol oxidase | <enzyme> From pleurotus sajor-caju (polyporaceae); converts veratryl alcohol and various aromatic alcohols to aldehydes, reducing o2 to h2o2 Registry number: EC 1.1.3.- Synonym: veratryl alcohol oxidase I, veratryl alcohol oxidase II (26 Jun 1999) |
| carotene oxidase | <enzyme> Enzyme that catalyses the oxidative conversion of arachidonic acid to the hydroxyeicosenoic acid (HETE) structure in the synthesis of leucotrienes. (18 Nov 1997) |

| catechol oxidase | <enzyme> An enzyme of the oxidoreductase class that catalyses the reaction between catechol and oxygen to yield benzoquinone and water. It is a complex of copper-containing proteins that acts also on a variety of substituted catechols. Chemical name: 1,2-Benzenediol:oxygen oxidoreductase Registry number: EC 1.10.3.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| cellobiose oxidase | <enzyme> Haem-containing flavoprotein, requires molecular oxygen Registry number: EC 1.1.3.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| glucooligosaccharide oxidase | <enzyme> Oxidises oligosaccharides with glucose on the reducing end and each sugar residue joined by an alpha- or beta-1,4 glucosidic bond; active on maltose, lactose, cellobiose and maltose derivatives up to seven residues Registry number: EC 1.1.3.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| glucose oxidase | <enzyme> An enzyme which converts glucose into gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). It is used to help diagnose diabetes by determining if glucose is present in the patients urine, if the glucose is present, the hydrogen peroxide produced in the reaction can be detected by reacting it with an indicator to change the colour of the urine. (09 Oct 1997) |
| glucose oxidase method | <chemical pathology> A highly specific method for measurement of glucose in serum or plasma by reaction with glucose oxidase, in which gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide are formed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glucose oxidase paper strip test | <chemical pathology> A qualitative test for glucose in the urine, in which glucose is oxidised to gluconic acid by glucose oxidase; a specific test, unless ascorbic acid is present. (05 Mar 2000) |
