Abstract

A very large assembly of more than 8000 carbon fibre microdisk electrodes was used to study direct electron transfer to cytochrome c. Near steady-state cyclic voltammograms were observed, which exhibited excellent signal-to-noise ratios despite the low concentrations of cytochrome c employed (1-50 microM). The high resolution of the voltammograms allowed the formal potential of the native form of cytochrome c to be determined over a range of solution pH.
