enzyme immobilization on an electrode, bilirubin oxidase adsorbed on a nanocomposite modified electrode has three distinct redox sites within that show pH dependence: the 1st redox centre with the highest redox potential Ec(1st) = 404 mV vs. Ag/AgCl (614 mV vs. NHE at pH 7.0) exhibits pH dependence with a slope -dEc(1st)/dpH = 66 mVunder a non-turnover process. The 2nd redox centre with a potential Ec(2nd) = 228 mV vs. Ag/AgCl (438 mV vs. NHE at pH 7.0) is not dependent on pH in the absence and presence of O2. Finally, the 3rd redox site with a redox potential Ec(3rd) = 92 mVvs. Ag/AgCl (302 mV vs. NHE at pH 7.0) exhibits pH dependence for a cathodic process with -dEc(3rd)/dpH = 70 mV and for anodic process with -dEa(3rd)/dpH = 73 mV, respectively. Two break points for dependence of Ec(1st) or Ec(3rd) on pH are observed for the 1st (T1) site and the 3rd site assigned to involvement of two acidic amino acids, Asp105 and Glu463.
