A. Iwado et al., GLUTATHIONE PEROXIDASE-LIKE CATALYTIC ACTIVITIES OF ION-EXCHANGE RESINS MODIFIED WITH METALLOPORPHYRINS, Analytical sciences, 14(3), 1998, pp. 515-518
Some of the ion-exchange resins modified with metalloporphyrins have b
een found to exhibit glutathione-peroxidase (GSHPx)-like catalytic act
ivities for hydrogen peroxide and cumene hydroperoxide in the oxidativ
e reaction of glutathione to disulfide. In particular, the anion-excha
nge resin modified with Mn(III)-tetrakis(sulfophenyl)porphine (Mn-TSPP
r) exhibited stronger activity than GSHPx, and hence Mn-TSPPr was expe
cted to be a good mimesis in place of GSHPx or immobilized GSHPx for t
he determination of peroxide.
