Abstrakt: A novel promising approach to the improvement of analytical properties of horseradish peroxidase based on its inclusion into self-assembled structures of chitosan is discussed. It is shown that the reasonable choice of a polyelectrolyte, a detailed investigation of its interaction with the enzyme and the conditions of the {peroxidase-polyelectrolyte} complex formation allow for stabilizing the biocatalyst in aqueous and aqueous-organic media without a substantial loss in its activity and developing corresponding analytical procedures and biosensors. The latter provides highly selective determination of a number of organic compounds and sensitive determination of heavy metal ions that becomes possible due to the specific interactions of the analytes with the polymer matrix. Besides, the application of the proposed analytical systems and biosensors provides the expansion of the range of the compounds, and poorly water soluble and slowly oxidized substrates of peroxidase as well, which could be determined and real samples which could be analyzed by enzymatic methods. Analytical performance of the developed spectrophotometric indicator procedures and biosensors based on the self-assembled complex {peroxidase-chitosan} is demonstrated in the determination of metal ions (Hg(II), Cd(II), and Pb(II)), phenothiazines (promazine, chloropromazine, and trifluoroperazine), phenolic compounds (phenol, hydroquinone, catechol, pyrogallol, quercetin, rutin, and esculetin), organic peroxides (tert-butyl peroxide, 2-butanone peroxide, and benzoyl peroxide) in various samples, including water-insoluble matrices.
