Activity of phenoloxidase in Paraplerurus sauridae on various substrates has been studied spectrophotometrically. The enzyme was shown to be nonspecific and capable of oxidizing both mono- and diphenols. It showed greater activity to some of the mono- and diphenols. Substrates with acidic side chain were oxidized less effectively. Based on the activity of the enzyme on different substrates, a possible metabolic pathway of sclerotization has been suggested.
已通过分光光度法研究了 Sauridae 副拟步甲酚氧化酶在各种底物上的活性。结果表明该酶具有非特异性，能够氧化单酚和二酚。它对某些单酚和二酚表现出更高的活性。带有酸性侧链的底物氧化效果较差。基于该酶在不同底物上的活性，提出了一种可能的硬化代谢途径。
