Immobilized-enzyme electrode for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (reduced form) (NADH) sensing and application to the kinetic studies of NADH dependent dehydrogenases.
Amperometric determination of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (reduced form) (NADH) at an immobilized-diaphorase (Dp) electrode is described. The measurement was conducted using ferrocenylmethanol as a mediator in a stirred solution at 0.20 V versus a saturated calomel electrode. A linear relationship between the steady-state current and the concentration of NADH was found over the range 0.005-0.125 mmol dm-3. The immobilized-Dp electrode showed outstanding stability and the current response reached a steady state within 2-3 seconds upon addition of NADH. The proposed electrode was used to follow the reactions of pig heart lactate dehydrogenase and horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase. The kinetic investigation using the immobilized-Dp electrode gave the kinetic parameters (Michaelis constants, Km values, and maximum velocities, Vm values), which were in satisfactory agreement with those determined by a conventional spectrophotometric method.
