Abstract

A sensitive and stable amperometric enzyme electrode was constructed, based on the immobilization of tyrosinase in potentiostatically electropolymerized polypyrrole film at a platinum electrode. The influence of pH and potential on immbilization was discussed. SEM micrographs and CV curves of films obtained before and after incorparation of tyrosinase molecular were analyzed and compared each other. The enzyme electrode responds linearly to p-cresol over a concentration range of 5×10 -8 ~1×10 -6 mol/L with an optimum pH of 6.6, It exhibited kinetic characteristics of the typical enzyme-catalyzed reaction with an apparent Michaelis constant of 2.2 ×10 -5 mol/L.
