Flow-through micro sensor using immobilized peroxidase with chemiluminometric FIA system for determining hydrogen peroxide.

A micromachined flow cell (overall size; 25 x 25 x 1 mm3) was designed for the fast determination of hydrogen peroxide, based on a luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence reaction catalyzed by immobilized peroxidase (POD). The flow cell consisted of a sandwich of anisotropically etched silicon and glass chips and contained a spiral channel (20 turns, 50 cm long, 150 microm wide, 20 microm depth, channel volume 1.4 microl) and two holes (1 mm diameter). POD was covalently immobilized with 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyldietylenetriamine and glutaraldehyde on the inner surface of the channel. The chip was placed in front of a window of a photomultiplier tube and used as a flow cell in a single-line flow-injection analysis system using a luminol solution as a carrier solution. The sample volume for one measurement was 0.2 microl. The maximal sampling rate was 315 h(-1) at a carrier solution flow rate of 10 microl min(-1). A calibration graph for H2O2 was linear for 5 nM - 5 microM; the detection limit (signal-to-noise = 3) was 1 nM (7 fg in 0.2 microl injection). The H2O2 concentration in rainwater was determined using this sensor system.     

Room temperature ionic liquid doped DNA network immobilized horseradish peroxidase biosensor for amperometric determination of hydrogen peroxide

A novel electrochemical H₂O₂ biosensor was constructed by embedding horseradish peroxide (HRP) in a 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate doped DNA network casting on a gold electrode. The HRP entrapped in the composite system displayed good electrocatalytic response to the reduction of H₂O₂. The composite system could provide both a biocompatible microenvironment for enzymes to keep their good bioactivity and an effective pathway of electron transfer between the redox center of enzymes, H₂O₂ and the electrode surface. Voltammetric and time-based amperometric techniques were applied to characterize the properties of the biosensor. The effects of pH and potential on the amperometric response to H₂O₂ were studied. The biosensor can achieve 95% of the steady-state current within 2 s response to H₂O₂. The detection limit of the biosensor was 3.5 μM, and linear range was from 0.01 to 7.4 mM. Moreover, the biosensor exhibited good sensitivity and stability. The film can also be readily used as an immobilization matrix to entrap other enzymes to prepare other similar biosensors. Figure Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) embedded in a 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMIM·BF ₄ ) doped DNA network can be used to fabricate a HRP sensor for the determination of H₂O₂     

Fibre optic fluorometric enzyme sensors for hydrogen peroxide and lactate,based on horseradish peroxidase and lactate oxidase

An optical biosensor for the determination of hydrogen peroxide based on immobilized horseradish peroxidase is described. The fluorescence of the dimeric product of the enzyme catalysed oxidation of homovanillic acid is utilized to determine the concentration of H₂O₂. The membrane-bound enzyme is attached to a bifurcated fibre bundle permitting excitation and detection of the fluorescence by a fluorometer. The response of the sensor is linear from 1 to 130 M hydrogen peroxide; the coefficient of variation is 3%. The sensor is stable for more than 10 weeks. The operating pH for maximal sensor response is 8.15. This allows the sensor to be used in combination with oxidase reactions producing hydrogen peroxide, as is demonstrated with a co-immobilized lactate oxidase-horseradish peroxidase optode for the determination of L-lactate. The fluorescence intensity of this sensor depends linearly on the concentration of lactate between 3 and 200 M and a throughput of 10 samples per hour is possible. The precision is in the same range as that of the monoenzyme optode. The lifetime of the bienzyme sensor for lactate is considerably shorter than that of the peroxidase sensor; it is limited by the stability of the immobilized lactate oxidase enzyme. The sensor has been applied to the determination of lactate in control serum.     

Hydrogen peroxide sensor based on horseradish peroxidase immobilized on a silver nanoparticles/cysteamine/gold electrode

A third-generation hydrogen peroxide biosensor was prepared by immobilizing horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on a gold electrode modified with silver nanoparticles. A freshly-cleaned gold electrode was first immersed in a cysteamine–ethanol solution, and then silver nanoparticles were immobilized on the cysteamine monolayer, and finally HRP was adsorbed onto the surfaces of the silver nanoparticles. This self-assemble process was examined via atomic force microscopy (AFM). The immobilized horseradish peroxidase exhibited an excellent electrocatalytic response toward the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. The linear range of the biosensor was 3.3 M to 9.4 mM, and the detection limit was estimated to be 0.78 M. Moreover, the biosensor exhibited a fast response, high sensitivity, good reproducibility, and long-term stability.     

Immobilized anthraquinone for redox mediation of horseradish peroxidase for hydrogen peroxide sensing

This dual immobilization gives rise to lower detection limits compared with the situation when either of the species is immobilized. Detection limits of 40 nM are reported within physiologically-relevant media.

Probing traces of hydrogen peroxide by use of a biosensor based on mediator-free DNA and horseradish peroxidase immobilized on silver nanoparticles

A new electrochemical biosensor for determination of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) has been developed by immobilizing horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on silver colloids (nanosilver) and use of a DNA-functionalized interface. In the presence of the DNA and the nanosilver the immobilized HRP gives a pair of well-defined redox peaks with an electron-transfer rate constant of 3.27 ± 0.91 s⁻¹ in pH 7.0 PBS. The presence of DNA also provides a biocompatible microenvironment for enzyme molecules, greatly amplifies the amount of HRP molecules immobilized on the electrode surface, and improves the sensitivity of the biosensor. Under optimum conditions the biosensor has electrocatalytic activity in the reduction of hydrogen peroxide with linear dependence on H₂O₂ concentration in the range 1.5 × 10⁻⁶ to 2.0 × 10⁻³ mol L⁻¹; the detection limit is 5.0 × 10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹ at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The value of HRP in the composite membrane was found to be 1.62 mmol L⁻¹. These results suggest that the properties of the complex film, with its bioelectrochemical catalytic activity, could make it useful for development of bioelectronic devices and for investigation of protein electrochemistry at functional interfaces.     

Determination of hydrogen peroxide by using a flow injection system with immobilized peroxidase and long pathlength capillary spectrophotometry

The development of a highly sensitive method for the determination of nanomolar concentrations of hydrogen peroxide in the liquid phase is described. This paper demonstrates for the first time a flow injection analysis (FIA) system with immobilized enzyme reactor combined with a total internal reflective cell (a liquid waveguide capillary cell (LWCC)) and spectrophotometric detection, for the development of an improved procedure for the determination of hydrogen peroxide. Moreover, the newly synthesized 4-aminopyrazolone derivative, 4-amino-5-(p-aminophenyl)-1-methyl-2-phenyl-pyrazol-3-one (DAP), is used as a color coupler in its oxidative condensation with the sodium salt of N-ethyl-N-sulphopropylaniline sodium salt (ALPS) which acts as a hydrogen donor. Immobilization of peroxidase is achieved by coupling the periodate-treated enzyme to aminopropyl controlled-pore glass (CPG) beads. The determination of hydrogen peroxide is carried out in a 0.1 M phosphate buffer and the product is monitored at 590 nm with a charge-coupled device (CCD) detector equipped with fiber optics in a fully computerized system. The interference of different species, mainly ionic, was investigated.The method permits detection down to 4 nmol l⁻¹ hydrogen peroxide (signal-to-noise ratio=3). A linear calibration graph was obtained over the range 20-700 nmol l⁻¹. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) at 300 nmol l⁻¹ H₂O₂ is 1.7% (n=7). The method was successfully applied for the determination of hydrogen peroxide in samples from a vat-cleaning process.

Optical sensor for hydrogen peroxide

Three types of sensors for continuous determination of hydrogen peroxide (HP) are described. The working principles are based on the decomposition of HP by a catalyst and on the measurement of the amount of oxygen thereby produced. The change in oxygen tension is quantitatively determined via the quenching of the fluorescence of a silica gel-adsorbed dye entrapped in silicone rubber. Three methods were found to be useful for HP decomposition. In the first one, the enzyme catalase (which acts as the catalyst) is co-adsorbed onto silica gel and thus is in the same phase as the indicator. In the second one, the enzyme and the dye are adsorbed on different silica gel particles which then are incorporated into the polymer layer. In the third one, finely dispersed silver powder (another catalyst) is embedded in a silicone rubber layer that is spread over the oxygen sensing membrane. The sensor is capable of continuously recording HP in the 0.1 to 10.0 mM concentration range, with a precision of ±0.1 mM at 1 mM HP. Its response time varies from 2.5 to 5 min.     

A flow-injection system using immobilized peroxidase and chromogenic reagents for possible determination of hydrogen peroxide

Summary A flow injection system with a reactor containing peroxidase immobilized on porous glass was used for the determination of hydrogen peroxide. A number of chromogenic reagents were studied in combination with different immobilization methods, in particular with regard to adsorption of the coloured product on the enzyme support. A f. i. a. manifold had a throughout of 210 samples h^–1 and a detection limit of 0.1 M H₂O₂ and could be used for at least 17000 determinations with the same enzyme reactor. Systems with higher sensitivity or higher sample throughput are also described.     

Electrochemical behavior of hydrogen peroxide sensor based on new methylene blue as mediator

A novel amperometric hydrogen peroxide sensor was proposed by co-immobilizing new methylene blue (NMB) and Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on glassy carbon electrode through covalent binding. The electrochemical behavior of the sensor was studied extensively in 0.1 mol/L phosphate buffering solution (pH = 7.0). The experiments showed NMB could effectively transfer electrons between hydrogen peroxide and glassy carbon electrode. The electron transfer coefficient and apparent reaction rate constant were determined to be 0.861 and 1.27 s⁻¹. The kinetic characteristics and responses of sensor on H₂O₂ were investigated. The Michaelis constant is 8.27 mol/L and the linear dependence of current on H₂O₂ is in the range of 2.5–100 μmol/L. At the same time, the effects of solution pH, buffer capacity, and temperature on the sensor were examined. Translated from Chemistry, 2006, 23(8): 916–920 [译自: 化学通报]     

Direct electrochemistry-based hydrogen peroxide biosensor formed from single-layer graphene nanoplatelet-enzyme composite film

A novel electrochemical sensing system for direct electrochemistry-based hydrogen peroxide biosensor was developed that relied on the virtues of excellent biocompatibility, conductivity and high sensitivity to the local perturbations of single-layer graphene nanoplatelet (SLGnP). To demonstrate the concept, the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme was selected as a model to form the SLGnP-TPA (tetrasodium 1,3,6,8-pyrenetetrasulfonic acid)-HRP composite film. The single-layer graphene composite film displayed a pair of well-defined and good reversible cyclic voltammetric peak for Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox couple of HRP, reflecting the enhancement for the direct electron transfer between the enzyme and the electrode surface. Analysis using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) revealed that electrostatic attractions existed between graphene monolayers and enzyme molecules. The intimate graphene and enzyme interaction was also observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which resulted in the special properties of the composite film. Ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) indicated the enzyme in the composite film retained its secondary structure similar to the native state. The composite film demonstrated excellent electrochemical responses for the electrocatalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), thus suggesting its great potential applications in direct electrochemistry-based biosensors.     

Gamma radiation induced synthesis of gold nanoparticles in aqueous polyvinyl pyrrolidone solution and its application for hydrogen peroxide estimation

Gold nanoparticles (Au nps) have been synthesized in aqueous solution of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) by gamma radiolysis from HAuCl₄·3H₂O precursor and in presence of small concentrations of Ag⁺, 2-propanol and acetone. The effect of different experimental parameters, such as concentration of reactant, molecular weight of PVP on nanoparticle formation was studied. TEM image confirmed that spherical Au nps were formed when PVP of molecular weight 360,000 Da was used as capping agent. H₂O₂ is a reactant in the enzyme catalyzed reaction of o-phenylene diamine (o-PDA). The reaction product has a weak absorption in the yellow region of the spectrum. When this product interacts with Au nps, it leads to enhancement of the absorption peak. The nanoparticles synthesized by radiation method were used for estimation of H₂O₂. The absorbance value of this peak at λ_max was observed to change with H₂O₂ concentration, which was monitored for estimation of H₂O₂. The response is linear in the range of 2.5×10⁻⁶ mol dm⁻³ to 2×10⁻⁴ mol dm⁻³ and 1×10⁻⁷ mol dm⁻³ to 3×10⁻⁶ mol dm⁻³ H₂O₂ in two separate sets of experimental parameters with detection limit 1×10⁻⁷ mol dm⁻³.

Electrodeposition of gold nanoparticles on indium/tin oxide electrode for fabrication of a disposable hydrogen peroxide biosensor

A novel disposable third-generation hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) biosensor based on horseradish peroxidase (HRP) immobilized on the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) electrodeposited indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode is investigated. The AuNPs deposited on ITO electrode were characterized by UV-vis, SEM, and electrochemical methods. The AuNPs attached on the ITO electrode surface with quasi-spherical shape and the average size of diameters was about 25 nm with a quite symmetric distribution. The direct electron chemistry of HRP was realized, and the biosensor exhibited excellent performances for the reduction of H₂O₂. The amperometric response to H₂O₂ shows a linear relation in the range from 8.0 μmol L⁻¹ to 3.0 mmol L⁻¹ and a detection limit of 2 μmol L⁻¹ (S/N = 3). The value of HRP immobilized on the electrode surface was found to be 0.4 mmol L⁻¹. The biosensor indicates excellent reproducibility, high selectivity and long-term stability.     

Effect of the nature of carbonaceous supports on the bioelectrocatalytic activity of peroxidase, immobilized on the supports, in the hydrogen peroxide reduction reaction

Electrochemical properties of such disperse carbonaceous materials as acetylene black AD-100, finely divided colloidal graphite (FCG), ultradisperse diamond (UDD), and carbon nanotubes (CNT) are examined. Effect of the nature of disperse carbonaceous supports on bioelectrocatalytic activity of adsorbed peroxidase (POD) in the hydrogen peroxide reduction reaction is investigated. It is shown that the hydrogen peroxide reduction on the biocatalysts studied proceeds in conditions of direct bioelectrocatalysis independently of the disperse-support type. It is also demonstrated that the biocatalysts’ activity depends on the structure and properties of the surface of the supports defining the magnitude of the POD adsorption in an orientation favorable for direct bioelectrocatalysis. Maximum activity is inherent in the catalysts manufactured on the basis of materials with moderate hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties. By the magnitude of the activity in the hydrogen peroxide reduction reaction, depending on the nature of the carbonaceous support, the fabricated catalysts (carbonaceous material with adsorbed POD) form the series AD-100, CNT > FCG > UDD.

In this paper, we synthesized flowerlike silver microspheres with nanostructures by simply reducing silver nitrate by ascorbic acid in the presence of PVP. The structure was investigated by SEM. The chemical composition was determined by EDX, XRD and XPS. Recent studies on hydrogen peroxide sensor based on silver nanoparticles inspired us to examine the electrocatalytic activity of prepared microspheres. This electrochemical sensor exhibited good electrocatalytic activity towards the reduction of H₂O₂ in 0.2 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0), and the detection limit of H₂O₂ was found to be 1.2 μM, which was lower than certain enzyme-based biosensors.
