摘要
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) modified electrodes were constructed by entrapping the enzyme in an Eastman AQ 55D polymer. The biosensor detects butanone peroxide (BTP) as a substrate, and thiourea (THU) and ethylenethiourea (ETU) as HRP inhibitors. The kinetic parameters for this sensor in organic media such as I-max and K-m' for BTP detection and K-i' for ETU and THU detection were evaluated. The differences in the values of these parameters were explained in terms of the physico-chemical properties of the organic reaction media. A possible solvent-induced deviation of the biosensor behavior from Michaelis-Menten kinetics in the detection of ETU and THU was evaluated using the Hill analysis. The least deviation was observed in acetonitrile. Spectroelectrochemistry was also used to qualitatively assess solvent-HRP, BTP-HRP and inhibitor-HRP interactions.
