The suitability of reverse micellar extraction for recovery of bovine lactoperoxidase (LP) from aqueous solution was evaluated using systems formed by ionic and nonionic surfactant mixtures. The influence of ionic surfactant concentration, organic solvent, and pH on the extraction of LP into the reverse micellar phase was studied. The Tween® series surfactants with Aerosol‐OT (bis‐(2‐ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate) showed better extraction of LP in the reverse micelles (RM) compared to the Triton® and Span® series of surfactants. Complete extraction of LP from an aqueous phase of initial concentration 25 mg L −1 occurred with the RM formed by 90 mM Aerosol‐OT/8 mM Tween® 80 in isooctane. The optimal pH, ionic strength, and positively charged ionic surfactant concentration for back extraction were also studied and a maximum of 95.5% back extraction efficiency and 66% LP activity recovery was obtained for a pH of 10.5,1 M KCl and 60 mM cetyltrimethylammonium bromide system.
