Notes:
Microdisk and microhole array electrodes were used to construct amperometric glucose biosensors based on the detection of hydrogen peroxide. All-chemical methods such as platinization, glucose oxidase immobilization, and electropolymerization permit electrodes of any size, shape, or surface complexity to be used for biosensors. This also gives the biosensor surface a multifunctional character, where the platinization decreases the operating potential, the immobilized enzyme provides the specificity, and the electropolymerized film prevents interferences and fouling. All of these functions are accomplished in a layer that is about 10 nm thick. The microdisk and microhole biosensors were linear to about 3 mM and 4 mM glucose, respectively, and were accurate, as checked by standard reference serum.
