Abstract
N6-(2-Aminoethyl)-FAD is covalently linked to a thioctic acid monolayer associated with an Au-electrode. The surface coverage of the FAD units is 2.2 × 10-11 mol cm-2. Apo-glucose oxidase (apo-GOx) reconstituted onto the FAD monolayer, yields a bioelectrocatalytically active enzyme layer, GOx, at a surface coverage of 2 × 10-12 mol cm-2. In the presence of N-dimethyl-2-aminoethyl ferrocene (I) as diffusional electron mediator, the enzyme electrode stimulates the bioelectrocatalyzed oxidation of glucose. A photoisomerizable nitrospiropyran−FAD mixed monolayer is assembled on an Au-electrode. The surface coverage of the FAD units is 2 × 10-11 mol cm-2, and the molar ratio of the nitrospiropyran and FAD units is 3:4. Reconstitution of apo-GOx onto the FAD sites of the photoisomerizable nitrospiropyran−FAD mixed monolayer yields a photoswitchable enzyme electrode for the light-stimulated oxidation of glucose in the presence of I as electron mediator. The photoswitchable properties of the enzyme electrode orig...
