Abstract

Enzyme or substrate determinations can be achieved by employing an organic second substrate, which produces a product which may be coupled with a metal inorganic redox couple capable of interacting with and affecting the potential of a metal electrode on a semiconductor surface. Particularly, hydrogen peroxide or indoxyl phosphate are coupled with iron- or ruthenium-containing ionic redox couples for determination with a noble metal electrode.
