Description
Summary:Enzyme electrodes based on methacrylates have received significant attention in the development of biosensors. This article reviews the use and application of methacrylate and its derivatives as an immobilization system for the preparation of enzyme electrodes. Resent examples, extracted from the literature, illustrate the superior performance of such materials in the fabrication of biosensors and bioreactors.
