title: Characterization of lipoxygenase isoforms in olive callus cultures.
abstract: Lipoxygenase activity is critical for the development of flavours and aromas in olive oils. We have partly purified isoforms of molecular mass 95 kDa that have activity against linoleic or alpha-linolenic acids by a simple procedure from olive callus cultures.
