Enzymatic metallized carbon paste electrodes prepared by incorporation of mixtures of different metals into the paste offer a substantial decrease in the overvoltage for hydrogen peroxide oxidation and reduction. Dramatic improvements in the sensitivity and selectivity for glucose determination were

β¦ Synopsis
The enzyme oxalate oxidase was immobilized on a pre-activated Nylon membrane or on a collagen membrane after activation of the carboxyl groups with the aid of an acyl-azide reaction. Oxalate was quantitated amperometrically via electrooxidation of the hydrogen peroxide generated in the reaction between oxalic acid and oxygen. The specific activities for the collagen and Nylon membranes were 0.13 and 0.74 U/cm', respectively. The enzyme activities for the two membranes were determined as a function of pH and ionic strength. The detection limits of oxalate were 1 X lop5 M for the collagen sensor and 4 X 1OW' M for the Nylon sensor.
