ENZYM-IMMOBILISIERUNGSMEMBRAN, VERFAHREN ZUR HERSTELLUNG DERSELBEN UND VERWENDUNG DER MEMBRAN IN EINER ELEKTRO-CHEMISCHEN MESSVORRICHTUNG.

摘要

An immobilized enzyme membrane for use at the working face of an electrochemical electrode is prepared which comprises an asymmetrical membrane integrally formed from a skin layer substantially incapable of permeating an enzyme therethrough but capable of permeating a gas and a liquid, and a sponge layer having pores containing an enzyme immobilized therein by crosslinking and which pores intercommunicate with one another throughout the sponge layer and provide sufficient porosity for retaining a necessary amount of the enzyme. The immobilized enzyme membrane contains a large amount of enzyme, has good diffusion and permeability, and has stabilized enzyme activity for a prolonged period of time. Additionally, there is obtained a quick response time and good analytical precision when the immobilized enzyme membrane is used at the working face of an electrode of electrochemical measuring instruments.
