Abstract
Immobilization of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase on a glass substrate has been demonstrated. The substrate was prepared with a thiol-terminal silane, to which was bonded the heterobifunctional cross-linker, N-gamma-maleimidobutyryloxy succinimide ester. The terminal amino groups of the enzyme were then attached to the cross-linker, yielding a surface enzyme coverage of 0.46 ng/mm2 with approximately 40% of the activity of the bound enzymes retained. Strategies for fabrication of practical biosensors are discussed
