Direct electron-transfer reactions of bilirubin oxidase (BOD) adsorbed onto carbon black (CB) were observed. Heterogeneous electron-transfer rate constants (k°) between BOD and CB were evaluated by analyzing steady-state catalytic voltammograms using a rotating electrode system. By the use of CB treated with UV–ozone, improvements in k° values were observed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
