I performed the polyphenol oxidase activity assay from certain mycelia extracts using pyrogallol as susbtrate. I have the absorbance values but am facing the problem in determining the enzyme activity, because I am unsure of the extinction coefficient for pyrogallol to be used for the calculation.
I used an article protocol (Raymond, J., Rakariyatham, N. and Azanza, J.L. (1993) Purification and some properties of polyphenoloxidase from sunflower seeds. Phytochemistry 34: 927-931).
