the cellular and humoral reactions. Phenoloxidases are oxidative enzymes that have an
important role in both cell-mediated and humoral immunity. In this study, the purification and
biochemical characterization of a phenoloxidase from the hemocytes of the Sunn pest
Eurygaster integriceps Puton (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae) were carried out. After the final
purification step, the enzyme was purified 7.31-fold with a recovery of 3.94% and a specific …
