Abstract

In this work, it is shown that the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) can be a powerful and simple tool for quick and precise kinetic enzymatic assays. This is shown by measuring immobilized acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity with variations of pH as a case study. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. (AU)
