X Abstract

Enzyme-amplified immunoassays have been adapted for electrochemical measurement, using an NAD+/NADH redox cycle coupled to an electrode via the active site of diaphorase. Two amperometric methods are described, the first employs an organic conducting salt electrode, NMP+/TCNQ-; the second a platinum wire with ferricyanide as electron transfer mediator. In an immunoenzymometric assay for human prostatic acid phosphatase the sensitivities of the electrochemical methods were comparable to that achieved with the existing optical technique, but the dynamic range of the electrochemical assays was increased by at least two orders of magnitude. It is proposed that electrochemical enzyme-amplified immunoassays may eventually replace their optical counterparts.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
