A series of 4-alkylcatechols and 1,2-diacetoxy-4-alkylbenzenes (from methyl to butyl) were chemically synthesized for in vitro evaluation as stimulators of nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis. All compounds were proven to be potent in stimulating NGF synthesis in L-M cells (a

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) has been extracted from both soluble and particulate fractions of loquat fruit (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. cv. Algerie). The soluble PPO (20% of total activity) was partially purified 3.3-fold after ammonium sulfate fractionation being in its active state.

The stoichiometry of oxygen consumption during tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation of an o-diphenol (4-tert-butylcatechol, TBC) and a monophenol (4-tert-butylphenol, TBP) has been determined. At high [substrate]/[enzyme] ratios, in the case of o-diphenols, the stoichiometry of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction was always 1 O(2)/2
