Enzyme electrode based on oxalate oxidase immobilized in gelatin for specific determination of oxalate.
A biosensor for the specific determination of oxalate was developed using oxalate oxidase (EC 1.2.3.4) from barley (Hordeum vulgare) seedling roots in combination with a dissolved oxygen probe. Oxalate oxidase immobilized with gelatin using glutaraldehyde and fixed on pretreated teflon membrane served as an enzyme electrode. The electrode response was maximum when 50 mM succinate buffer was used at pH 3.2 and 35 degrees C. The biosensor response depends linearly on oxalate concentration between 5 x 10(-6)-2 x 10(-4) M with response time 30 sec and substrate specificity of the oxalate oxidase electrode of 100%. The sensor is stable for more than 3 months during which time more than 400 assays can be performed.
