The oxidation of chalcone catalysed by peroxidase : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Plant Science at Massey University
This thesis deals with studies which have as their origin the intention to investigate select aspects of the enzymology of flavonoid biosynthesis and which lead to the finding that a peroxidase-catalysed reaction is of central importance in the system under scrutiny. In the course of this Introduction, therefore, a brief background is developed in relation to not only flavonoids but also peroxidase-catalysed reactions.
