Glucose Oxidase (GOD) oxidizes glucose to -gluconolactone in presence of moleculer oxygen by
forming hydrogen peroxide. As a result of the catalysed reaction, GOD is widely used in cases
where glucose or molecular oxygen should be removed to extend the shelf life of foods or used in
the production of controlled hydrogen peroxide or gluconic acid. One of the most important
application areas of GOD is the construction of the glucose biosensors. There are several studies
about GOD purification, immobilization, industrial and analytical applications, so, fast and
sensitive determination of GOD activity is essential for these studies. In this study, GOD activity
determination methods were reviewed mainly four approaches: determination of decrease in
glucose or oxygen concentration and determination of increase in hydrogen peroxide or gluconic
acid levels.
