Zusammenfassung:An enzyme having alpha -glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase activity characterized in that it has a Km of less than 2.5 mM is disclosed, as is the production and use thereof. More particularly, such enzymes may be obtained from Propionibacterium species and may have Km values of less than 50 mu M, hence are advantageous for triglyceride/glycerol/ alpha -glycerol-3-phosphate determinations and test kits.
