Hemoglobin (Hb) was successfully immobilized in dimethyldioctadecyl ammonium bromide (DOAB) film at pyrolytic graphite (PG) electrode. Electrochemical experiments revealed that Hb in DOAB film exhibited a pair of well-defined, quasi-reversible cyclic voltammetric peaks at about -0.160 V versus saturated calomel electrode (SCE) in pH 5.0 buffer, characteristic of the heme Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox couple of Hb. The electron transfer (eT) rate between Hb and the PG electrode was 0.10 s(-1). Positions of the Soret absorbance band indicated that the Hb retained its secondary structure and was similar to its native state. Furthermore, the Hb in DOAB film acted as a biological catalyst towards the reduction of nitric oxide (NO). The voltammetric response of NO at the Hb-DOAB modified electrode could be used to determine the concentration of NO in solution.
