Abstract
Here we report the immobilization of glucose oxidase in polyacrylamide hydrogels carried out by aqueous crosslinking copolymerization of acrylamide and N,Nâ² methylene bisacrylamide in the presence of the enzyme. The swelling and viscoelastic properties of the hydrogels were evaluated as a function of the content of crosslinker of the polymer chains and enzyme concentration. Amperometric measurements were also carried out to evaluate the system as a glucose biosensor.
