  • First Online:
Measurement and Control

Abstract

Oxidases can be used with a hydrogen peroxide electrode to construct amperometric biosensors for determination of various analytes, including substrates, cofactors, prosthetic groups, inhibitors, activators, enzyme activities, as well as antigens/antibodies. This chapter reviews the principle and technology of hydrogen peroxide-based biosensors and the techniques for enzyme immobilization. Methods for alleviation of interference by electroactive species are cited with an emphasis on mediator technology. The present state of applications and development trends of this technology are also presented and discussed.
