Abstract
Peroxidase, an enzyme of commercial importance to the
diagnostic industry, is currently extracted and purified from
the roots of field-grown horseradish plants (Armoracia rusticana)
by conventional methods. It is, however, known that
plant peroxidases occur in undifferentiated cells maintained
in culture at a specific and total activity which may surpass
that of the root (Shinshi & Noguchi, 1976). In this report we
have examined cell cultures of the horseradish plant as a
source of the enzyme.
