This paper describes an electrochemical biosensor for free cholesterol monitoring. The sensor is a multienzymatic electrodic system in which horseradish peroxidase and cholesterol oxidase are simultaneously immobilized within a polymeric film. on the surface of a pyrolitic graphite electrode. From voltammetric and amperometric (flow-injection) data obtained, the efficiency, reproducibility and stability of the system are discussed. Results obtained, of interest for basic and applied biochemistry, represent a first step for construction of a mediator-free biosensor with potentialities for a successful application in the biosensor area.

Abstract
This paper describes an electrochemical biosensor for free cholesterol monitoring. The sensor is a multienzymatic electrodic system in which horseradish peroxidase and cholesterol oxidase are simultaneously immobilized within a polymeric film. on the surface of a pyrolitic graphite electrode. From voltammetric and amperometric (flow-injection) data obtained, the efficiency, reproducibility and stability of the system are discussed. Results obtained, of interest for basic and applied biochemistry, represent a first step for construction of a mediator-free biosensor with potentialities for a successful application in the biosensor area.
