One of the drawbacks to large-scale applications of enzymes in electronic devices has been the difficulty in fabricating uniform, reproducible circuitry. The problems associated with providing spatially uniform coatings of enzymes over very small areas have for the most part been ignored. With the aim of developing analytical devices and with an emphasis on miniaturization for possible in vivo use, a critical factor in the design is the ability to have functionally uniform and reproducible enzyme loadings on the transducer element. Polymer-modified electrodes offer the apparent advantage of providing uniform coatings over very small areas, particularly when formed in situ by electropolymerization. Immobilization of protein within the polymer coating can be by entrapment within the polymer matrices'-' or possibly by covalent attachment to functionalized monomers. This work is directed at studying the effect of the conditions of electropolymerization on the loading, spatial distribution, and activity of the immobilized enzyme, using both conducting polymers (such as pyrrole) and nonconducting polymers [such as poly(rn-phenylenediamine)] and different types of enzymes. Results are presented for m-phenylenediamine and glucose oxidase.
