Direct electrochemistry and electrocatalysis of hemoglobin in gelatine film modified glassy carbon electrode.
Direct electrochemical and electrocatalytic behavior of hemoglobin (Hb) immobilized on glass carbon electrode (GCE) containing gelatine (Gel) films was investigated. The characteristics of Hb/Gel film modified GC electrode were performed by using SEM microscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy and electrochemical methods. The immobilized Hb showed a couple of quasi-reversible redox peak with a formal potential of -0.38V (versus SCE) in 0.1M pH 7.0 PBS. The formal potential changed linearly from pH 4.03 to 8.41 with a slope value of -52.0mV pH(-1), which suggested that a proton transfer was accompanied with each electron transfer (ET) in the electrochemical reaction. The Hb/gelatine/GCE displayed a rapid amperometric response to the reduction of H(2)O(2) and nitrite.
