title: Indole-3-acetic Acid oxidation and crocin bleaching by horseradish peroxidase.
abstract: During indoleacetic acid (IAA) oxidation by horseradish peroxidase the water soluble model polyene, crocin, is bleached. IAA-oxidation and crocin bleaching are stimulated at acidic pH as well as by the monophenol p-hydroxyacetophenone. IAA oxidation and crocin bleaching are neither influenced by catalase or superoxide dismutase nor by different OH-radical scavengers, whereas both ascorbate and propylgallate are inhibitory.
