ResumoAn enzyme immobilization method has been developed by electropolymerization chemistry of conducting polymer which results in a more effective and reproducible enzyme electrode. As a model system, in this study, glucose oxidase (GOD) was conjugated with a polyanion, poly(2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid), via a poly(ethylene oxide) spacer to improve the efficiency of enzyme immobilization into a conducting polymer. GOD was successfully conjugated with a high conjugation yield of more than 90%, and its bioactivity was preserved. The resulting polyanion−GOD conjugate was used as a dopant for the electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole. Polypyrrole was effectively deposited on a Pt wire working electrode with the polyanion−GOD conjugate. The enzyme electrode responded to glucose concentrations of up to 20 mM with a sensitivity of 40 nA/mM at an applied potential of 0.4 V within a response time of 30 s. Although the response signal decreased at the low applied potential of 0.3 V, the enzyme electrode showed sensitive response signals of about 16 nA/mM up to 20 mM in glucose concentration. Under the deoxygenated condition, reduced but clear response current signal was obtained. The results show that the current signal response of the enzyme electrode to glucose concentration may be produced by mixed mechanisms.
