A novel glucose sensor has been contrived by immobilizing glucose oxidase between two nontronite clay coatings on glassy carbon electrode with methyl viologen as mediator. The sandwich configuration proved to be very effective in the determination of glucose. The response of the glucose sensor was determined by measuring cyclic voltammetric peak current values under aerobic solution conditions. The effects of the amount of enzyme immobilized, the operating pH, and the common interferences on the response of the glucose sensor were studied. The detection limit was 5 μM, with a linear range extending to about 6 mM, giving a dynamic range of over 3 orders of magnitude for 0.1 mM methyl viologen. When stored in pH 7 phosphate buffer at 4 °C, the sensor shows almost no change in performance after operating for at least 2 months. A mechanism for the operation of the glucose sensor is also proposed.
