Not if you boiled it well. Liver does contain catalase, but boiling permanently denatures most proteins. Whatever catalase was in the liver before boiling will probably be denatured and non-functional after boiling.

What part of the body is catalase found?
In humans, Catalase exists in all the organs of the body, but is found mosty in the liver.
What are some good sources of the human enzyme catalase?
Potatoes, Yeast and the human liver (or pigs liver)
Is the poisonous hydrogen peroxide produced in the cells of living things converted into harmless materials by the action of enzyme catalase?

What two groups of bacteria can be differentiated with the catalase test?
The morphologically similar Enterococcus (catalase negative) and Staphylococcus (catalase positive) can be differentiated using the catalase test.
What enzyme distinguishes staphylococci from streptococci?
Catalase. Staphylococci are catalase positive. Streptococci are catalase negative.
Why does fresh liver react better in H2O2 then boiled liver?
It all has to do with catalase. Catalase is an enzyme and a biological catalyst in the decomposition of H2O2. When its fresh, catalase is still present in the liver. However, when the liver is boiled, the catalase enzyme is denatured (as it is a protein).
Where is catalase found apart from the liver?
Catalase is also found in potatoes
Does Beef Have Catalase?
Beef comes from cows and cows have catalase in their liver, so yes
Why doesn't cooked liver bubble in hydrogen peroxide?
Catalase is the protein that catalyzes the decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide to diatomic Hydrogen and Oxygen. Heat denatures or destroys proteins, so a boiled liver sample has denatured catalase proteins which can no longer perform their metabolic function.
Does liver contain enyzme?
Yes, one of the enzymes in the liver is catalase.
What is a food source of the enzyme catalase?
Carrots, patatoes, and liver are good sources of enzyme catalase
What part of the body is catalase found?
In humans, Catalase exists in all the organs of the body, but is found mosty in the liver.
Why was liver used as a source of this enzyme?
liver is an organic compound that contains HIGH levels of catalase (enzyme)
What happens when boiled liver and manganese dioxide?
The boiled liver starts to bubble and then the manganese dioxide expolades
Which substance contains more catalase liver or potato?
Potatos are more planted than the other one.
Mix hydrogen peroxide and liver?
The enzyme in the liver (catalase) decomposes the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and oxygen molecules.
Why liver cells give more oxygen than potato cells for catalase reaction?
the liver has more enzymes that the potato (a starch) does.
