| Abstract: | A copolymer gel prepared from N-isopropyl-acrylamide (NIPA) and vinylferrocene (VF) exhibits volume phase transition. The phase transition can be controlled electrochemically, and electrochemical behavior of the gel can be controlled thermally. A copolymer of NIPA and VF, which is not crosslinked, also possesses similar characteristics. Those polymer and gel can be applied to enzyme electrodes. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
