Abstract:
A non-specific acid phosphatase from the alimentary tract of the milkweed bug Oncopeltus fasciatus Da11., has an optimum pH range of 4.5 to 4.7, kinetics of, zero order for 30 minutes incubation and the maximum substrate concentration giving a zero order reaction is 0.00017 M(final). It has a Km value of 1.74 X 10-3 and an optimum temperature of 40°C (30 minute incubation). It is activated by Mg + + and Mn + + ions.
