|
|
|
H2O2 + O2
|
|
|

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Mammalian catalase is known for its facile ability to convert hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen (catalatic activity), and its activity oxidizing low molecular weight alcohols in the presence of low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (peroxidatic activity).
Detailed explanation-2: -Catalase breaks down two hydrogen peroxide molecules into one molecule of oxygen [9] and two molecules of water in a two-step reaction [10].
