Abstract: The IR spectroscopic and electrochemical measurements demonstrated that glucose oxidase (GOx) could be immobilized on the surface of carbon black (CB) using a simple adsorptionmethod. The electrochemical measurements indicated that GOx immobilized on CB could undergo the quasi-reversible and direct electrochemical reaction and keep the bioelectrocatalytic activity for the glucose oxidation. Even after conservation for two weeks, its electrocatalytic activity decreased only 5%, illustrating the good stability of GOx immobilized on CB.

Key words: Glucose oxidase, Carbon black, Glucose, Direct electrochemistry, Biofuel cell
