Cytochrome C reductase immobilized on carbon paste electrode and its electrocatalytic effect on the reduction of cytochrome C

ABSTRACT 	Carbon paste electrodes were modified with cytochrome c reductase enzyme. The behavior of the electrodes was characterized by cyclic voltammetry. The cytochrome c reduction was investigated both on the enzyme modified carbon paste electrode and in a homogeneous system. In the first...
