Glucose Oxidase (GOD) has been covalently bound to functionalized glass cover slips. The surface density of immobilized GOD molecules was measured by a method based on the amperometric determination of Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD). Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) images, obtained in aqueous solution for the covalently bound enzyme, show a monomolecular layer of the enzyme on a functionalized glass surface. The catalytic constants were measured for the immobilized GOD and compared with those of the free enzyme.

Abstract
Glucose Oxidase (GOD) has been covalently bound to functionalized glass cover slips. The surface density of immobilized GOD molecules was measured by a method based on the amperometric determination of Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD). Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) images, obtained in aqueous solution for the covalently bound enzyme, show a monomolecular layer of the enzyme on a functionalized glass surface. The catalytic constants were measured for the immobilized GOD and compared with those of the free enzyme.
