  • Patent number: 8858768
    Abstract: The present invention provides an electrochemical sensor comprising a substrate, an electrically conductive layer made of carbon particles which is disposed on the substrate, a cell membrane mimetic structure layer containing an enzyme at least one of inside the cell membrane mimetic structure layer and on the interface of the cell membrane mimetic structure layer which is disposed on the electrically conductive layer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 4, 2010
    Date of Patent: October 14, 2014
    Assignee: ARKRAY, Inc.

  • Patent number: 8784624
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an enzyme electrode including: a carbon particle; a metal particle held on the carbon particle, the metal particle having a catalytic activity against a redox reaction; a redox enzyme. The enzyme electrode of the present invention further includes a high-resistance particle enhancing an electrical resistance, the high-resistance particle being chemically stable. The high-resistance particle contains an inorganic substance, for example. The inorganic substance is aluminum oxide or smectite, for example.
