Investigation of the enzymic and electrochemical oxidation of uric acid derivatives.
The electrochemical oxidation of a number of N-methylated uric acids at the pyrolytic graphite and gold electrodes has been compared to their enzymic oxidation with type VIII peroxidase and H2O2. Spectral, electroanalytical and kinetic evidence supports the conclusion that for all compounds the electrochemical and enzymic reactions proceed by identical mechanisms.
