The enzyme was found to be completely and irreversibly inactivated at pH 3.0 and below. From a study of enzyme kinetics of lipoxygenase extracted from the acidified soy slurries, significant changes were observed with the values of the Michaelis constant and in the enzyme inhibition patterns when the enzyme was exposed to pH of about 4.6 and below.

A separate study using a purified lipoxygenase-1 supported the evidence that the enzyme was stable when preincubated between pH 3.0 and 9.0 but lost all of its activity when exposed to pH 3.0 and below.
