Can you use chemical grade hydrogen peroxide to dissolve flesh off of animal bones?
Gbtp
We use a 35% peroxide mixture diluted to about 15% to bleach skulls but only after we have boiled and pressure washed the skulls. H2O2 is very volitile and can cause major chemical reactions if ANY corrosive metal touches it. It also burns skin instantly. It will not remove the flesh adequately in itself.

Why is catalase important for living organisms?
Catalase is an enzyme found in most organisms that are exposed to oxygen. It is important because it catalyzes the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. It mainly protects the cell from oxidative damage.
What are analogies for plant cell Peroxisomes?
Peroxisomes are membrane-bound packets of oxidative enzymes. In plant cells, peroxisomes play a variety of roles including converting fatty acids to sugar and assisting chloroplasts in photorespiration. In animal cells, peroxisomes protect the cell from its own production of toxic hydrogen peroxide. As an example, white blood cells produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bacteria. The oxidative enzymes in peroxisomes break down the hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. A good analogy would be something that gets rid of toxic waste.
What does the peroxisome do for an animal cell?
The peroxisome breaks down toxins in the cell. I remember it by 'peroxide' for cuts so they don't get infected. That's actually where the name for peroxide came from.

What percentage of hydrogen peroxide can be used to provide oxidative stress to animal cell lines?
Oxidative stress was induced by adding hydrogen peroxide at 0.25 mM for 2, blotting in the three cell lines after hydrogen peroxide stimulation.
What plant or animal organelle is involved in the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and liver?

Is it OK to use hydrogen peroxide to rub on a cat's gums for inflammation?
No, it is not OK to use hydrogen peroxide to rub on a cat's gums for inflammation because it is too harsh a product. There is also the risk that the cat will swallow the hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide should never be used on: mucus membranes, open wounds, or internally. This applies to anyone or any animal. It kills cells on contact.
Why is catalase important for living organisms?
Catalase is an enzyme found in most organisms that are exposed to oxygen. It is important because it catalyzes the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. It mainly protects the cell from oxidative damage.
Why animal cells have more catalase enzyme than plant cells?
Catalase is an enzyme that is needed to break down hydrogen peroxide - a by product of cellular respiration. Typically, cellular respiration occurs at a higher rate in animal cells, meaning that more catalase is needed to break down more hydrogen peroxide: In case the equaiton is needed: 2H2O2 --> 2H2O + O2
Does liver contain an enzyme which breaks down H2o2?
H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) is broken down by Catalase [an enzyme of the Peroxidase family], produced by every living animal cell. So yes.
What will happen if you give hydrogen peroxide to a cat and it does not vomit?
Generally, cats are only given hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting if they have eaten something poisonous. If this is the reason you gave it to your cat, you need to take your cat to a veterinarian right away. The hydrogen peroxide may have gotten the cat to vomit and therefore taken care of any immediate danger, but there could still be some poison in the cat's system, or even other damage depending on what it ate. Also, hydrogen peroxide is given to cats in very small amounts. You would need to put it in a lot of water to be safe for your pet. If you accidentally gave your cat too much, this could be just as dangerous as poison. Hydrogen peroxide is highly corrosive, and can cause damage to membranes in an animal's stomach, resulting in internal bleeding. It can also cause blistering, stomach pain, diarrhea, and further vomiting. If this is the case, your cat still needs taken to a veterinarian promptly.To summarize, if your cat is still showing symptoms of any kind after this, it needs to be taken to a veterinarian. This should be done any time a cat ingests something toxic, if that is why you gave it the hydrogen peroxide. If it is not the reason, and your cat is still showing symptoms, it is most likely caused by the hydrogen peroxide itself. Either situation is dangerous for your cat, and it needs immediate care.

Do animal cells have more catalase than plant cells?
Catalase is indeed found in all living things. It is a common enzyme that is found in tissue of organisms.
Is baking soda an animal source?
If you mean to ask if baking soda comes from animals, no it does not. Baking soda is a chemical compound consisting of sodium, hydrogen, carbon and oxygen.
