Coupling Enzymes

The Electrochemistry team acquired, selected, and optimized an electrode setup for the detection of NADH at low concentrations in a complex solution. Additionally, the team demonstrated the ability of the electrode setup to detect enzyme generated NADH over time, and thereby functionally deconvolute aldehyde profiles within a sample.

Electrode Choice

Our Electrode system needed to:

  • Detect NADH at low LOD (Sensitive)
  • Detect NADH with high linear range (Reactive)
  • Be robust to any possible solution components (Selective)
  • Be cheap (low cost)
  • Use a low sample volume (be efficient)
  • Compatible and interfacaeble with potentiostat
  • Portable
