Abstract
A lysine sensor for process control of lysine fermentation was develop ed based on a Clark-type electrode in combination with L-lysine-alpha- oxidase. The enzyme, isolated from Trichoderma viride, was immobilized between a cellulose and a polypropylene foil using a polyurethane res in. Lysine determinations were carried out in a flow-through system as anodic measurements when H2O2 was measured and as cathodic measuremen ts when the consumption of O2 was followed. The sensitivity of the sen sor toward other amino acids was determined.
