Abstract: | The regularities of the bioelectrocatalytic reduction of H2O2 in the presence of peroxidase (POD) or a POD–Nafion composite adsorbed on the surface of carbon black or isotropic pyrocarbon are considered. The effect of the surface coverage with the enzyme, the H2O2 concentration, and the H2O2 supply rate to the electrode on the system activity is studied. Specific activities of three electrode types (POD adsorbed on carbon black or pyrocarbon, and the composite deposited on pyrocarbon) are close to one another. A mechanism for the bioelectrocatalytic reduction of H2O2 in a wide potential range is proposed. At potentials near the steady-state value, the reaction rate is limited by the electrochemical kinetics. At high polarizations, the formation of a POD compound with H2O2 is the limiting stage. |
