I am currently studying senior chemistry and doing an assignment on 
catalase...My guess is that having a body malfunction does affect the quality 
or the rate of reaction by the catalase enzyme produced, therefore it doesn't 
work as sufficently in the body! A bodily malfunction can have anything to do 
with, an increase in fatty acids, high salt concentration, high sugar...
Please help and guide me in the right direction!   Rigela
