Study on Glutathione Peroxidase (GSH-Px) Activity of Solanaceae Plants

Abstract:

Glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) is the regulator for spontaneously arise intracellular or was controlled by enzymatic reaction.It responses to the body’s ability to scavenge oxygen free radicals,and it contains important significance in resources development.The activity of Glutathione peroxidases were detected with dlrectly-determined method in eggplant,cayenne pepper,love apple,Irish potato,medlar of Solanaceae plants.The results showed that,the activities of the enzyme in the tuber of Irish potato and the fructification and root of eggplant were higher than that of the others,which will lay a foundation for the research of the enzyme in future.
