Abstract:
Two adjacent electrode surfaces were modified in a sequential manner with self-assembled thiol layers from the same solution using conditions (aqueous buffer at neutral pH) suitable for applications with proteins. A faradaic response was obtained from the redox protein, cytochrome c, independently immobilised at each surface.
