Abstract
Electroenzymatic reduction of NAD(+) to NADH for subsequent use in enz ymatic synthesis has been carried out at carbon electrodes bearing lip oamide dehydrogenase (LiDH) immobilized under a Nafion(R) film. The se lf-mediated electron transfer was made possible by an excess of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) entrapped together with LiDH. Results were compared to those obtained with a similar electrode containing both L iDH and a polymeric form of FAD (pFAD) prepared by anodic polymerizati on of FAD. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
