Enzyme sensor for determining a concentration of glutamate

摘要

Disclosed is an enzyme sensor for determining a concentration of glutamate comprising an immobilize enzyme acting specifically to a substrate and a transducer for converting the quantitative change of a substance or heat which is produced or consumed during an enzyme reaction to an electrical signal, wherein the enzyme is glutamine synthetase and the transducer is the pH glass electrode or ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET). The enzyme sensor can be miniaturized and can accurately determine a concentration of glutamate even when it is low.
