The ferrocene acted as mediator was incorporated into the PVC-COOH polymer and the leakage could be prevented. The presence of carboxyl groups on the electrode surface allowed immobilizing enzyme via EDC and NHS. The ratio of PVC-COOH to graphite powder （w/w） has been studied. Amperometric determination of glucose has been performed at potential of 0.30 V vs SCE. The response time was 〈 15 s. The linear response range was of 0.1-20 mmol/L with a detection limit of 48μmol/L.展开更多
