The use of electrochemically grown polymers has expanded dramatically in the last couple of years, and they are now well established as membranes for immobilizing components. The evidence here for their anti-fouling properties is good. The poly(1,3-diaminobenzene)-covered electrodes performed well in the buffer, urine, plasma and serum samples, but not so well in the blood. The Ru/Rh/Pt, Rh/Rh and the Pt-on-glassy carbon electrodes covered with poly(1,3-diaminobenzene) were the best electrodes in the blood. The Pt disc seemed to exhibit the largest irrepeatability in most of the biological matrices.
