A study on bovine erythrocyte superoxide dismutase by controlled potential electrolysis and Raman spectra

Bioelectrochemistry. 2004 Aug;64(1):33-7. doi: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2004.01.005.

Abstract

The electrochemical behavior of Cu(2)Zn(2)SOD on mercury electrodes was studied by controlled potential electrolysis. By comparison of UV, Raman spectra and activity of Cu(2)Zn(2)SOD before electrochemical reduction and after re-oxidation, it is proved that the conformation and activity are not changed.
