Enzyme immobilization and permselectivity analysis of an interference free peroxide based glucose biosensor

The performance of a biosensor sensing layer is mostly determined by the immobilization method and the materials used to immobilize the enzyme. In this work, the performances of four types of glucose oxidase immobilization materials based on poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) for peroxide-based glucose biose...

Enzyme immobilization and permselectivity analysis of an interference free peroxide based glucose biosensor
description The performance of a biosensor sensing layer is mostly determined by the immobilization method and the materials used to immobilize the enzyme. In this work, the performances of four types of glucose oxidase immobilization materials based on poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) for peroxide-based glucose biosensor were compared.
