| Title of Invention | ELECTROCHEMICAL METHOD LFOR MEASURING CHEMICAL REACTION RATES |
|---|---|
| Abstract | A method for measuring a rate of a chemical reaction between a component of a liquid sample and a reagent, the reaction producing and electroactive species, comprising: providing an electrochemical cell having a working electrode, a counter electrode, and at least one wall; substantially immobilizing the reagent in the electrochemical cell at a site at a minimum distance from the working electrode, wherein the site is situated on the counter electrode, wherein the distance is such that transfer of the electroactive species from the site to the working electrode is diffusion controlled; placing the liquid sample in the electrochemical cell such that the liquid sample is in contact with the reagent, the working electrode, and the counter electrode; reacting the component with the reagent to produce the electroactive species; applying a potential between the working electrode and the counter electrode, wherein the potential is sufficient to electrochemically react the electroactive species at the working electrode; and measuring the current produced by the electrochemical reaction at the working electrode to obtain a measure of the rate of the chemical reaction. |
