Abstract

The disclosure concerns a high efficiency electrochemical sensor with high signal yield for determining an analyte in a fluid medium comprising, at least one reference electrode, at least one working electrode having particles of an electrocatalyst in an electrode matrix, and an enzyme that is suitable for determining an analyte is selectively covalently bound to the particles of the electrocatalyst. The disclosure also describes a process for producing the electrochemical sensor and a method for determining an analyte in a fluid medium using the electrochemical sensor. have a high efficiency and thus achieve a high signal yield.
