    Abstract:
    A scheme for purification of hyaluronidase from Staphylococcus aureus 0-15 that allows to produce a 550-fold-purified preparation with a high specific activity was developed. Hyaluronidase was found to consist of two molecular forms with different molecular weights. Staphylococcus hyaluronidase referred to as a complex preparation and its molecular forms have action optimum at pH 5.0-7.2 and at a temperature between 30 and 37 degrees C. The enzymes were highly specific to their substrate: they catalyzed the depolimerization of hyaluronic acid but did not split the other glycosaminoglycans.
