ABSTRACT:
A cholesterol sensor facilitating rapid measurement of serum cholesterol levels is disclosed. The sensor comprises an electrode system composed of at least a measuring electrode and a counter electrode and disposed on an electrically insulating base plate and a reaction layer formed on or in the vicinity of the electrode system. The reaction layer contains cholesterol esterase for catalyzing the conversion of cholesterol ester into cholesterol, cholesterol oxidase and a surfactant.
