ABSTRACT
Objective To determine the effect of peroxidase enzyme root Brassica napus var. rapifera (turnip) in the
concentration of chlorophenol in water samples from Lake Chapala.
Material and methods An observational study was carried out, such study consisted on collecting
ecological water samples from Lake Chapala Jalisco, Mexico and comparing those to the Industrial and
Technical Education Center’s(CETI) drinking water by using a phenol solution at 2% and root extract of
Brassica Napus var. rapifera (turnip) which contains a high percentage of peroxidase enzyme.
Results Water samples collected from Lake Chapala Jalisco reacted to peroxidase in a period of 5-10
minutes, which denoted that the enzyme is able to act on this substrate.
Conclusions The oxidizing action of the chlorophenol in wastewater treatment removes carcinogenic and
mutagenic actions and therefore reduces public health risks to human population.
