- Stable immobilization and reversible electrochemistry of cytochrome c in a tranparent indium tin oxide film with a well-defined mesoporosity (mpITO) is demonstrated. the transparency and good conductivity, in combination with the large surface area of mpITO, allow the incorporation of a high amount of elelctroactive biomolecules and their electrochemical and spectroscopic investigation. UV/Vis and resonance Raman spectroscopy, in combination with direct protein voltammetry are employed for the characterization of cytochrome c immobilized in the mpITO and reveal no perturbant of the structural of the integrity of the redox protein. The potential of this modified material as a biosensor detection of superoxide anions is also demonstrated.
