Digital simulation has been used to model the steady-state current response of the amperometric enzyme electrode. Two types of calibration curves are predicted, depending upon whether the current is controlled by enzyme catalysis or by diffusion. Linear calibration curves are predicted at low substrate concentration; however, linearity extends to concentrations greater than Km for the enzyme in the case of diffusion-control. This behavior has been observed using a glucose oxidase electrode meeting diffusion-control crite-ria established by the simulation. Approach to steady-state data permits D for glucose in the membrane medium to be estimated at 0.24 X 10~ 5 cm2/sec. Low apparent current densities observed are attributed to the inhibition of enzyme activity in the membrane and the reduction of effective electrode area by the membrane matrix; each is found to be reduced to ca. 1% of its theoretical valueby the immobilization process.Immobilized enzyme electrodes that are specific for a wide variety of substrates are used at this time. In most cases, changes occurring as a result of the enzyme reaction are monitored potentiometrically (1-4). A frequently used substrate-enzyme combination for the study of immobil-
