Abstract
The possibilities and advantages of using reversed micelles as appropriate working media for the development of amperometric enzyme biosensors with analytical purposes is discussed. The influence of the composition of reversed micelles on the amperometric responses obtained at the enzyme electrodes is illustrated. Some analytical applications such as the determination of phenolic pollutants, of the antioxidant BHA and of dimethyl- and diethyldithiocarbamates are shown.
