Popis: Nitrobenzene NADPH-, H2O2- and O2-dependent oxidation in soybean and maize subcellular fractions has been studied. It is demonstrated that in the presence of nicotinamide coenzyme, transformation via monooxygenase has decisive significance. H2O2- and O2-dependent transformation of nitrobenzene is accomplished via either enzymatic or non-enzymatic (radical) mechanisms which results in formation of m- and p-nitrophenols.
