A newly developed amperometric glucose biosensor based on graphite rod (GR) working electrode modified with biocomposite consisting of poly (pyrrole‐2‐carboxylic acid) (PCPy) particles and enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx) was investigated. The PCPy particles were synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization technique using H₂O₂ as initiator of polymerization reaction and modified covalently with the GOx (PCPy‐GOx) after activation of carboxyl groups located on the particles surface with a mixture of N‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)‐N′‐ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and N‐hydroxysuccinimide (NHS). Then the PCPy‐GOx biocomposite was dispersed in a buffer solution containing a certain amount of bovine serum albumin (BSA). The resulting biocomposite suspension was adsorbed the on GR electrode surface with subsequent solvent airing and chemical cross‐linking of the proteins with glutaraldehyde vapour (GR/PCPy‐GOx). It was determined that the current response of the GR/PCPy‐GOx electrodes to glucose measured at +300 mV vs Cl reference electrode was influenced by the duration of the PCPy particles synthesis, pH of the GOx solution used for the PCPy particles modification and the amount of immobilized PCPy‐GOx biocomposite. An optimal pH of buffer solution for operation of the biosensor was found to be 8.0. Detection limit was determined as 0.039 mmol L⁻¹ according signal to noise ratio (S/N: 3). The proposed glucose biosensor was tested in human serum samples.

Flow electrochemical biosensors based on enzymatic porous reactor and tubular detector of silver solid amalgam

A flow amperometric enzymatic biosensor for the determination of glucose was constructed. The biosensor consists of a flow reactor based on porous silver solid amalgam (AgSA) and a flow tubular detector based on compact AgSA. The preparation of the sensor and the determination of glucose occurred in three steps. First, a self-assembled monolayer of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) was formed at the porous surface of the reactor. Second, enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx) was covalently immobilized at MUA-layer using N-ethyl-N′-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carboimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide chemistry. Finally, a decrease of oxygen concentration (directly proportional to the concentration of glucose) during enzymatic reaction was amperometrically measured on the tubular detector under flow injection conditions. The following parameters of glucose determination were optimized with respect to amperometric response: composition of the mobile phase, its concentration, the potential of detection and the flow rate. The calibration curve of glucose was linear in the concentration range of 0.02–0.80 mmol L⁻¹ with detection limit of 0.01 mmol L⁻¹. The content of glucose in the sample of honey was determined as 35.5 ± 1.0 mass % (number of the repeated measurements n = 7; standard deviation SD = 1.2%; relative standard deviation RSD = 3.2%) which corresponds well with the declared values. The tested biosensor proved good long-term stability (77% of the current response of glucose was retained after 35 days).     

Synergistic contributions of multiwall carbon nanotubes and gold nanoparticles in a chitosan–ionic liquid matrix towards improved performance for a glucose sensor

We report an ingenious approach for the fabrication of a promising glucose sensor, GOx/Au/CS–IL–MWNT(SH), that exploits the synergistic beneficial characteristics of multiwalled-carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), chitosan (CS) and room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL). Direct electron transfer between glucose oxidase (GOx) and electrode was achieved. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy images of GOx/Au/CS–IL–MWNT(SH) reveal that MWNTs and AuNPs are dispersed in CS–IL matrix. Cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectroscopy and chronoamperometry were used to evaluate the performance of biosensor. The GOx/Au/CS–IL–MWNT(SH) biosensor exhibits a linear current response to glucose concentration (1–10 mM) at a low potential of 0.10 V and precludes interferences from uric acid and ascorbic acid. The GOx/Au/CS–IL–MWNT(SH) biosensor has superior performances over GOx/CS–IL–MWNT(SH).

In this work, three types of electrodes suitable for amperometric glucose biosensors were designed. One type of electrode was based on bio‐selective layer of polypyrrole/(glucose oxidase)/(Prussian Blue) (Ppy/GOx/PB) and it was used as a control electrode regarding to which electrochemical properties of two other types of electrodes were compared. During the formation of Prussian blue layers graphite electrodes were additionally modified by Ni‐hexacyanoferrate (NiHCF) and by Co‐hexacyanoferrate (CoHCF) in order to design Ppy/GOx/PB‐NiHCF and Ppy/GOx/PB‐CoHCF electrodes, respectively. Some physicochemical characteristics of all three types of electrodes were evaluated and compared. The Ppy/GOx/PB‐NiHCF electrode showed wider linear range of the calibration curve than Ppy/GOx/PB and Ppy/GOx/PB‐CoHCF electrodes. The effect of temperature on analytical performance of the Ppy/GOx/PB‐NiHCF based biosensor has been evaluated and activation energy of enzyme catalysed reaction has been calculated within the temperature range of 15 °C to 30 °C.

We report on the utilization of gold nanorods to create a highly responsive glucose biosensor. The feasibility of an amperometric glucose biosensor based on immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx) in gold nanorod is investigated. GOx is simply mixed with gold nanorods and cross-linked with a cellulose acetate (CA) medium by glutaraldehyde.

The current response of modified electrode is 10 times higher than that of without gold nanorods. Under optimal conditions, the biosensor shows high sensitivity (8.4 μA cm⁻² mM⁻¹), low detection limit (2 × 10⁻⁵ M), good storage stability and high affinity to glucose (). A linear calibration plot is obtained in the wide concentration range from 3 × 10⁻⁵ to 2.2 × 10⁻³ M.

An electrochemically preanodized screen-printed carbon electrode for achieving direct electron transfer to glucose oxidase

Here we report the unique property of a preanodized screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE1) that can allow direct electron transfer (DET) reaction of glucose oxidase (GOx). The GOx can be immobilized in the composite of oxygen functionalities and edge plane sites generated during preanodization without additional cross-linking agents. The electron transfer rate of GOx is greatly enhanced to 4.38 s⁻¹ as a result of the conformational change of GOx in the microenvironment enabling the accessibility of active site for GOx to the electrode. The analytical versatility is further improved with the aid of Nafion film. As a consequence, the as-prepared electrode can be used as a glucose biosensor and the number of potential foreign species is then restricted by molecular size, permeation and/or (bio)chemical reaction. Most importantly, the disposable nature of the proposed electrode is expected to promote the DET-related researches.
