Glucose oxidase（Cat No.:I044244）is a flavoprotein enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of β-D-glucose to D-glucono-δ-lactone, producing hydrogen peroxide in the presence of oxygen. Derived primarily from fungi such as Aspergillus niger, it plays a key role in glucose sensing, biofuel cells, and food preservation. Glucose oxidase is widely used in diagnostic applications, particularly in glucose biosensors for diabetes monitoring. Its ability to consume oxygen and generate hydrogen peroxide also makes it valuable in antimicrobial systems and oxidative stress research. The enzyme’s high substrate specificity supports precise biochemical and industrial applications.
