Abstract

Catalase is an enzyme almost universally present in living cells and has the power of breaking hydrogen peroxide into water and molecular oxygen. The various theories as to the significance of catalase in metabolism are conflicting. Catalase has been considered by some as an enzyme directly correlated with respiration, others have failed to find such a correlation.
