| Description: | Cholesterol oxidase, Microorganism (ChOx) is a bacterial flavin oxidase containing FAD, commonly used in biochemical research. Cholesterol oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of the C(3)-OH group of cholesterol (and other sterols) to cholest-5-en-3-one and isomerizes it to cholest-4-en-3-one. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
