Summary

Catalase interaction with anionic type (sodium laurate and sodium dodecylsulfate) and cationic type (dodecylpyrimidinium chloride) surfactants was investigated. Viscosity, electric conductivity, enzyme activity and kinetics depend on surfactant concentration. Corroborating data demonstrate the existence of interaction between catalase and anionic surfactants. Results were interpreted in the terms of non-polar interactions, taking into account both the physicochemical properties of surfactants in aqueous solutions and the better known structure of haemic proteins (haemoglobin) similar to catalase.

Zusammenfassung

Die Interaktion der Katalase mit anionischen (Natriumlaurinat und Natriumdodezylsulfat) und kationischen (Dodezylpyrimidiniumchlorid) Tensiden wurde untersucht, indem die Variation der Viskosität, der elektrischen Leitfähigkeit, der Enzymaktivität und-kinetik in Abhängigkeit von der Tensidkonzentration beobachtet wurden. Gegenseitig sich bekräftigende Angaben weisen auf das Vorhandensein von Interaktionen zwischen Katalase und den untersuchten anionischen Tensiden hin. Die Ergebnisse wurden unter Annahme nichtpolarer Interaktionen und unter Berücksichtigung der physiko-chemischen Eigenschaften der Tenside in Wasserlösungen sowie der Struktur Katalase-ähnlicher Haem-Proteine (Hämoglobin) gedeutet.
