ENZYMES | Biological catalysts that speed up the rate of metabolic reactions |
ENZYME INHIBITORS | Inhibitor combines with the enzyme (directly/indirectly) and prevents it forming an enzyme-substrate complex |
IMMOBILISED ENZYMES | Enzyme molecules that are fixed, bound or trapped on an inert matrix such as a gel capsule (alginate beads) |
BIOSENSOR | Describes the association of a biomolecule, such as an enzyme, with a transducer, which produces an electrical signal in response to substrate transformation. The strength of the electrical signal may be measured with a meter |
