Enhanced production of extracellular urate oxidase by Aspergillus Flavus
Urate oxidase or uricase is an enzyme that catalyses the oxidation of uric acid to allantoin and plays important rule in purine metabolism. The first important application discovered for uricase was in clinical biochemistry as diagnosis reagent for measurement of uric acid in blood. The precipitatio...
