492-61-5 | Glucose Oxidase (GOx)

Chemical type

• Oxidoreductase enzyme (EC 1.1.3.4)
• Fungal-derived enzyme (typically from Aspergillus niger)

^[1]

• β-linked glucose polysaccharide

^[2]

Key properties

• Catalyzes oxidation of glucose to gluconic acid and H₂O₂
• Used at 15,000 U/L in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) for diagnostic kits
• Stable in enzymatic cascade with peroxidase

^[1]

• Moderately rigid but more dynamic than chitin
• Forms a layer external to chitin core
• Higher water accessibility
• Contributes to mesh-like structure
• Flexible populations present

^[2]

• Generates H₂O₂ from glucose in diagnostic assays
• Key enzyme in glucose diagnostic kits for blood sugar measurement
• Applied in biosensors for glucose monitoring in clinical and food analysis

^[1]

• Secondary structural support
• Cell wall architecture organization
• Interface layer between rigid core and outer flexible wall

^[2]

Classification by use

• Enzymes used in diagnostic kits
• Enzymes used in biosensors
• Enzymes for oxidative reactions in clinical biochemistry
