Abstract
An enzyme sensor for glucose fabricated by the electrochemical polymerization method is described. Electropolymerized films of 2,2’-bithiophene is used to immobilized glucose oxidase at platinum electrodes. The responses of the enzyme-polymer electrodes toward glucose are analyzed under various conditions. The relation between performance of the polymer-modified electrode and properties of the polymer formed is also discussed.
