[Quantitative indices of the activity and the electrophoretic characteristics of staphylococcal catalase]. / Kolichestvennye pokazateli aktivnosti i élektroforeticheskaia kharakteristika katalazy stafilokokkov.

The average levels of activity of intracellular and extracellular catalase were determined. The activity of intracellular catalase was shown to be significantly higher than that of extracellular catalase, the average level of activity of extracellular catalase being higher in S. aureus than in S. epidermidis. In most of the strains one zone of extracellular catalase and two molecular forms of intracellular catalase were revealed by means of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
