This peroxide-dependent catalysis of microperoxidase has been applied in an enzyme electrode for the first time to indicate aromatic compounds such as aniline. 4-fluoroaniline, catechol and p-aminophenol. The electrode signal is generated by the cathodic reduction of the quinone or quinoneimine which is formed in the presence of both MP-II and peroxide from the substrate. The same sensor principle will be extended to aromatic drugs.}, language = {en} } @article{YarmanNagelGajovicEichelmannetal.2011, author = {Yarman, Aysu and Nagel, Thomas and Gajovic-Eichelmann, Nenad and Fischer, Anna and Wollenberger, Ursula and Scheller, Frieder W.}, title = {Bioelectrocatalysis by Microperoxidase-11 in a Multilayer Architecture of Chitosan Embedded Gold Nanoparticles}, series = {Electroanalysis : an international journal devoted to fundamental and practical aspects of electroanalysis}, volume = {23}, journal = {Electroanalysis : an international journal devoted to fundamental and practical aspects of electroanalysis}, number = {3}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, address = {Malden}, issn = {1040-0397}, doi = {10.1002/elan.201000535}, pages = {611 -- 618}, year = {2011}, abstract = {We report on the redox behaviour of the microperoxidase-11 (MP-11) which has been electrostatically immobilized in a matrix of chitosan-embedded gold nanoparticles on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode. MP-11 contains a covalently bound heme c as the redox active group that exchanges electrons with the electrode via the gold nanoparticles. Electroactive surface concentration of MP-11 at high scan rate is between 350+/-50 pmol cm(-2), which reflects a multilayer process. The formal potential (E degrees') of MP-11 in the gold nanoparticles-chitosan film was estimated to be -(267.7+/-2.9) mV at pH 7.0. The heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k(s)) starts at 1.21 s(-1) and levels off at 6.45 s(-1) in the scan rate range from 0.1 to 2.0 V s(-1). Oxidation and reduction of MP-11 by hydrogen peroxide and superoxide, respectively have been coupled to the direct electron transfer of MP-11.}, language = {en} } @article{ZengFrascaRumschoetteletal.2016, author = {Zeng, Ting and Frasca, Stefano and Rumsch{\"o}ttel, Jens and Koetz, Joachim and Leimk{\"u}hler, Silke and Wollenberger, Ursula}, title = {Role of Conductive Nanoparticles in the Direct Unmediated Bioelectrocatalysis of Immobilized Sulfite Oxidase}, series = {Electroanalysis : an international journal devoted to fundamental and practical aspects of electroanalysis}, volume = {28}, journal = {Electroanalysis : an international journal devoted to fundamental and practical aspects of electroanalysis}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1040-0397}, doi = {10.1002/elan.201600246}, pages = {2303 -- 2310}, year = {2016}, language = {en} }
