Zusammenfassung:This invention provides an improved method for electrochemical glucose measurement and an improved composition for glucose measurement. This invention also provides a composition for glucose measurement comprising a flavin compound. This invention also provides an electrode comprising a flavin compound and a sensor and a glucose fuel cell comprising such electrode. In addition, this invention provides a method for electrochemical glucose measurement and a method for electric power generation using a flavin compound. The flavin compound of the present invention is non-toxic or less toxic and it can be thus used for a means of self-contained continuous glucose measurement.
