Laccase Inhibition by Mercury: Kinetics, Inhibition Mechanism, and Preliminary Application in the Spectrophotometric Quantification of Mercury Ions

<div>Calibration plot for the initial oxidation rate of 200 <i>μ</i>M CA per 10 TvL·<i>μ</i>g·mL<sup>−1</sup> as a function of mercury concentration. The kinetics were obtained in acetate buffer (0.1 M, pH 4.5), monitoring the enzymatic oxidation of CA at 410 nm with 2-minute incubation.</div>
