Abstract
The work is devoted to the study of the effect of ultrasound on catalase activity in seeds of pea, clover, aspergillus culture fluid and rabbit suspension of cecotrophs. The objects were sonicated for 5, 10 and 20 minutes, according to the size of the flask with soaked seeds, the culture of the fungus and the suspension in the ultrasound unit. At the end of the experiment, the activity of the catalase was determined in the objects by the gas metric method. The highest activity of catalase is observed in the seeds of clover, the smallest in the culture fluid of the fungus.
