Abstract

Oxidation of homogentisic acid and gentisic acid by the enzyme of Poria subacida and the effect of α,α′-dipyridyl on their oxidation were studied through oxygen uptake using Warburg apparatus. The oxidation products of these two acids were investigated by their ultraviolet absorption spectra and by paperchromatography.
