Xg. Qu et al., ELECTROCHEMICAL REACTION OF CYTOCHROME-C AT GOLD ELECTRODES MODIFIED WITH THIOPHENE CONTAINING ONE FUNCTIONAL-GROUP, Bioelectrochemistry and bioenergetics, 34(2), 1994, pp. 153-156
The electrochemical reactions of cytochrome c were studied at a thioph
ene-modified gold electrode. It was demonstrated that thiophene is an
effective promoter, although there is only one functional group in the
molecule. Based on this result, the mechanism for accelerating the el
ectron transfer process between cytochrome c and the electrode by prom
oters was discussed.
