About this item
Unit Definition: One unit is the amount of enzyme that oxidizes one micromole of bilirubin per minute at 37 °C, pH 8.4.
Bilirubin oxidase is used to degrade bilirubin. Bilirubin oxidase, from Myrothecium verrucaria, may be used to determine free hemoglobin in icteric specimens. It also has potential application in dye effluent decolorization and is a potential treatment for neonatal jaundice. It is used in diagnostic determination to determine two types of bilirubin, glucuronide-conjugated and unconjugated bilirubin separately. Also in various enzymatic assay using oxidase-peroxidase such as "Glucose oxidase system", "Cholesterol oxidase system", "Acyl coenzyme A oxidase system", and "Glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase system", the accuracy of the assay system can be increased as the interference of bilirubin is removed by oxidation of bilirubin in body fluid with bilirubin oxidase.
Bilirubin oxidase participates in porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism
