title: Application of immobilized enzymes to clinical analyses : use of co-immobilized glucose oxidase and peroxidase in column form.
abstract: Glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger and peroxidase from horseradish were simultaneously immobilized onto alkylamine glass beads which were then packed into a 1.5 x 20 mm column and integrated in the flow system of an AutoAnalyzer I. Glucose in serum, up to 5.0 g/l, was continuously determined at a rate of 60 samples per hour. The co-immobilized enzyme column gave better sensitivity as compared with an enzyme column which contained a mixture of two kinds of individually immobilized enzymes. The enzyme column was sufficiently stable while in use for two months. The results correlated satisfactorily well with those obtained by other well established methods for glucose assay.
