Mechanism for catalytic oxidation of glucose With Glucose oxidase (GO) and Fc mediator
Scheme 2 Glucose + GO(FAD) + 2 H+ gluconolactone + GO(FADH2) GO(FADH2) + 2 Fc+ GO(FAD) + 2 Fc + 2 H+ Fc Fc+ + 2 e- (at electrode) (5) (1) (4)
Fc = ferrocenecarboxylate
Signal can also be measured by amperometry: Hold const. E where oxidation occurs, measure I vs time
Most sensors use enzyme called glucose oxidase (GO) Most sensors are constructed on electrodes, and use a mediator to carry electrons from enzyme to GO Fc = mediator, ferrocene, an iron complex These reactions occur in the sensor: Fc Fc+ + e- (measured)
