Immobilization of glucose oxidase in polypyrrole/polytetrahydrofuran graft copolymers

Glucose oxidase (GOD) was immobilized in four different conducting polymer matrices, namely: polypyrrole, (PPy), poly(pyrrole-graft-polytetrahydrofuran), ( 1) and ( 3); and poly(pyrrole-graft-polystyrene/polytetrahydrofuran), ( 2). The kinetic parameters V max and K m, and the optimum temperature we...

Description
Summary:Glucose oxidase (GOD) was immobilized in four different conducting polymer matrices, namely: polypyrrole, (PPy), poly(pyrrole-graft-polytetrahydrofuran), ( 1) and ( 3); and poly(pyrrole-graft-polystyrene/polytetrahydrofuran), ( 2). The kinetic parameters V max and K m, and the optimum temperature were determined for both immobilized and native enzymes. The effect of electrolysis time and several supporting electrolytes, p-toluenesulfonic acid, p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA), sodium p-toluene sulfonate, sodium p-toluene sulfonate (NaPTS), and sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), on enzyme immobilization were investigated. The high K m value (59.9 mM) of enzyme immobilized in PPy was decreased via immobilization in graft copolymer matrices of pyrrole. V max, which was 2.25 mM/min for pure PPy, was found as 4.71 mM/min for compound ( 3).
