Streptomyces: A superior source for cholesterol oxidase used in serum cholesterol assay

Abstract: The present study compared three cholesterol oxidase sources (Nocardia, Streptomyces, and Pseudomonas sps.) for serum cholesterol assay. We found cholesterol oxidase isolated from Streptomyces was superior thanthose isolated from Nocardia and Pseudomonas sps. Performances fo the reagent contained Streptomyces cholesterol oxidase was excellent and comparable to the performances obtained from reagent contained Nocardia cholesterol oxidase. Moreover, the reagent containing Streptomyces cholesterol oxidase had the… Show more

“…During past three decades, cholesterol oxidases (COX) have been purified from several microorganisms, such as Brevibacterium (Gadda et al 1997), gamma-Proteobacterium (Isobe et al 2003), Nocardia (Richmond 1973), Pseudomonas (Doukyu and Aono 1998), Rhodococcus (Sojo et al 2002), Bacillus (Kim et al 2002), Schizophyllum and Streptomyces (Gadda et al 1997;Lolekha and Jantaveesirirat 1992). The cholesterol oxidases from different microorganism exhibit many distinct properties and not much is known about the properties in practical clinical use.…”
