“…Moreover, a possible accumulation of Hg 2 + may occur by electrostatic interactions within the outer layer composed of negatively charged clay particles [5,14]. This phenomenon should facilitate the GOD inhibition [5,6,18,19] and hence reduce the response time. Figure 2 shows the average percentage of current increase (current increase/ current decrease due to glucose x 100) as a function of Hg 2 + concentration for three biosensors.…”
