Abstract
Direct electrochemical response of cytochrome c (Cyt c), which was adsorbed onto the surface of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) through a simple cyclic potential scan technique, was observed. Cyt c adsorbed on MWNTs showed an enzyme-like activity to catalyze the reduction of oxygen (O2). Thus, a third generation O2 reagentless biosensor was constructed.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
