Abstract
The electrochemistry of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) was examined an d the coupling of PQQ with glucose oxidase was studied at different pH values. Optimal interaction between PQQ and glucose oxidase was obser ved at pH 3.5. Results from these studies enabled construction of PQQ- glucose oxidase-modified enzyme electrodes for the detection of glucos e in Ribena blackcurrant juice. The corresponding amperometric determi nation of glucose was in good agreement with results obtained using co mmercial enzymatic test kits supplied by Boehringer Mannheim and Sigma Diagnostics.
