O2-sensitive biosensors using oxidase membranes have acquired considerable electro-analytical importance. Since some of these O2-converting enzymes also produce H2O2, the use of additive reagents for the O2-free breakdown of the H2O2 in the second reaction has repeatedly been reported. In contrast to L-lactate oxidase, L-lactate-2-monooxygenase converts its substrate without producing H2O2.

Bioelectrochemical membrane-electrodes for O2-sensitive enzymatic flow-through analysis of beta-D-glucose and L-lactate are described. The enzyme-membranes of the biosensors consist of glucose-oxidase or lactate-oxidase molecules cross-linked with glutardialdehyde between two dialysis membranes. The accuracy of the biosensors is demonstrated by electroanalysis of diluted control serum and compared with redox-mediator-free H2O2 detection and photometric methods.
