โฆ Synopsis
Glucose oxidase from A. niger (EC 1.1.3.4) was physically entrapped between two dialysis membranes. The resultant enzyme-membrane sandwich reactors were employed in a standard Technicon dialyzer unit at 37ยฐC and were found to perform efficiently in the automated analysis of aqueous glucose standards in the range 2.5-50 mg%. Over a lo-day period with intermittent usage, slight increases in the activities of the reactors were observed. The potential of such reactors in automated analysis is discussed. EXPERIMENTAL Type V glucose oxidase (Sigma Chemical Co.) with 1400 units/ml was used without further purification.
