Abstract
In this work, the development and utilization of a Prussian blue/condu cting polymer composite electrode has been investigated. The introduct ion of a layer of conducting polymer (polypyrrole) enhanced the electr oactivity of the outer Prussian blue film. This has been used for impr oved signal generation for the redox protein cytochrome c. The effect of the thickness of these two film coatings and buffer solution pH has been investigated. The analytical utility has been demonstrated using flow injection analysis.
