TVEL0 Activity Tests
Initial Activity Test
To standardize activity test methods used for this project a laccase from Trametes versicolor (TVEL0) was used. The optimal composition for activity measurements contains 140 µL of 0.03 mg mL-1 concentrated TVEL0 laccase solution, 100 mM sodium acetate buffer, 0.1 mM ABTS, ad 200 µL H2O. With this approach activity in oxidizing ABTS of TVEL0 was measured over a time period of 5 minutes at 25°C. The saturation of the reaction was reached after 3 minutes when ~80% ABTS got oxidized (see figure 1). This result proofed the activity measurement method and can therefor be used as a positive control.
