Answer: a pH level lower or higher than the optimum level between pH 7 and pH 11
Catalase is an enzyme that speeds up chemical reactions in the human body. It breaks down hydrogen peroxide in the liver, but can also damage DNA. Catalase prevents damage by accelerating the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water creating bubbles.
The optimum pH level of catalase is between pH 7 and pH 11, a pH level lower or higher than this the catalase ceases to function.
