title: Tuning the redox and enzymatic activity of glucose oxidase in layered organic films and its application in glucose biosensors.
abstract: Glucose oxidase was embedded in organic films through a layer-by-layer approach, where the enzyme demonstrated significantly enhanced electron-transfer reactivity and finely tuned enzymatic activity. An unmediated, reagentless glucose biosensor was accordingly prepared with two polyethylenimine/glucose oxidase bilayers-modified pyrolytic graphite electrode. A calibration linear range of glucose was 0.5-8.9 mM with a detection limit of 50 microM and sensitivity of 0.76 microA mM(-1).
