Publication Abstract

Electrochemical Assay for the Rapid Determination of Oxidase Enzyme Activities

S. Kröger, S.J. Setford and A.P.F.Turner

The standard photometric method for the determination of oxidase enzyme activity is compared with an electrochemical approach, involving the use of cheap, disposable screen-printed electrodes. Development and characterisation of the electrochemical device is reported. The electrochemical approach is demonstrated to be advantageous, particularly with regard to speed, ease-of-use, chemicals required and decentralisation of analysis.
