Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
ascorbic acid 50% and 78% inhibition at 1 mM for the cv. Narince samples from 2006 and 2007, respectively Vitis vinifera
L-cysteine 52% and 76% inhibition at 1 mM for the cv. Narince samples from 2006 and 2007, respectively Vitis vinifera
additional information no inhibition by citric acid. The mode of action of inhibitors differs from each other. Ascorbic acid and metabisulfite are reducing agents, which can either reduce o-quinones to colourless diphenols or react irreversibly with o-quinones to form stable colourless Vitis vinifera
Sodium metabisulfite 49% and 74% inhibition at 1 mM for the cv. Narince samples from 2006 and 2007, respectively Vitis vinifera

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function in plants, PPO is predominantly located in the chloroplast thylakoid membranes, and its phenolic substrates are mainly located in the vacuoles but, following any treatment that damages the cells, the enzyme and substrates may come into contact, leading to rapid oxidation of the phenols Vitis vinifera
