Abstract: The CME modified by azure I,a new electron-transfer mediator,which was electrodeposited onto the surface of spectrographic graphite electrode ,shows significantly electrocatalytic activity to the reduction of hemoglobin,In the potential range from 0.3 V to-0.7V(vs. SCE),the mediator azure Ibehaves as one-electron reversible redox process involving two protons in acid solution and one proton in basic solution.In the medium of 0.2 mo1/L HAc-NaAc(pH=5.5).The formal potential E0'of the electrodeposited azure I is -0.21 Vand the apparent electron-transfer rate constant is 0.69 s-1.This CME shows a good stability.
