    A putative alcohol oxidase (AO) from abdominal tips (ATs) of Manduca sexta virgin females was studied in a biphasic system hexane/aqueous phosphate buffer. The pH optimum closest to neutral range (6.8) and the temperature optimum closest to room temperature (25+/-3 C) were measured for the highest AO activity. A high selectivity for primary alcohols of benzylic, saturated, and allylic type was observed.

    Alkohol-oxidasa z feromonálních žláz samic lišaje tabákového byla studována v systému hexan/fosfátový pufr. Bylo nalezeno pH optimum 6,8 a optimální teplota 25+/-3 C pro maximální enzymovou aktivitu. Byla nalezena vysoká selektivita pro primární alkoholy jak nasycené, tak benzylového či allylového typu.
