Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9706244A1] A method of enhancing the activity of an enzyme, comprises adding to the enzyme, as a mediator for enhancing the activity of the enzyme, a compound having formula (1) in which A is a (hetero)aromatic residue; X is an -N=S or an -N=O group; Y is an -SH or an -OH group; Z is a water-solubilising group; x is 1 or 2; y is 1, 2 or 3; and z is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4. The enzyme of enhanced activity is useful, e.g., in the degradative bleaching of pulp for paper production; in the degradative bleaching of stains on textiles during washing; in the modification, breakdown or bleaching of lignin, especially during the production of paper pulp; in the degradation of organic material such as a dyestuff in waste water; and in the degradative bleaching of migrating dyes in a washing process, so that inhibition of transfer of such dyes during washing is effected.
