Lactate oxidase (LOX), microorganism-derived(Cat No.:I042017), is a flavin-dependent enzyme (EC 1.13.12.4) that catalyzes the oxidation of L-lactate to pyruvate with the concurrent production of hydrogen peroxide. Sourced from microorganisms such as Aerococcus viridans, this enzyme plays a key role in biosensor applications, especially in lactate assays for clinical diagnostics and food analysis. It utilizes molecular oxygen as an electron acceptor and contains flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as a cofactor. Microbial lactate oxidase is valued for its substrate specificity, stability, and utility in enzymatic detection systems for monitoring metabolic and fermentation processes.
