A Selective Cholesterol Biosensor Based on Composite Film Modified Electrode for Amperometric Detection

An amperometric cholesterol biosensor based on immobilization of cholesterol oxidase in a Prussian blue (PB)/polypyrrole (PPy) composite film on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode was fabricated. Hydrogen peroxide produced by the enzymatic reaction was catalytically reduced on the PB film electrode at 0 V with a sensitivity of 39 μA (mol/L)^?1. Cholesterol in the concentration range of 10^?5 ? 10^?4 mol/L was determined with a detection limit of 6 × 10^?7 mol/L by amperometric method. Normal coexisting compounds in the bio‐samples such as ascorbic acid and uric acid do not interfere with the determination. The excellent properties of the sensor in sensitivity and selectivity are attributed to the PB/PPy layer modified on the sensor.

A hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) biosensor based on the combination of Au@Ag core‐shell nanoparticles with a hemoglobin‐chitosan‐1‐butyl‐3‐methyl‐imidazolium tetrafluoroborate (Hb‐CHIT‐BMIM×BF₄) composite film was prepared. UV‐vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy confirmed a core‐shell nanostructure of Au@Ag nanoparticle was successfully obtained. Cyclic voltammetric results showed a pair of well‐defined redox peaks appeared with the formal potential (E^O′) of ‐0.301 V (versus Ag/AgCl reference electrode) and the peak‐to‐peak separation (ΔE_p) was 84 mV in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solutions. Due to the synergetic effect of Au@Ag core‐shell nanoparticles and Hb‐CHIT‐BMIM×BF₄, the biosensor exhibited good electrocatalytic activity to the reduction of H₂O₂ in a linear range from 1.0 × 10^?6 to 1.0 × 10^?3 M with a detection limit of 4 × 10^?7 M (S/N = 3).

Multi‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT)‐Ionic Liquid‐Modified Carbon Paste Electrode: Probing FurazolidoneDNA Interactions and DNA Determination

The interactions of furazolidone (Fu) with double‐stranded calf thymus DNA (dsDNA) on the multi‐walled carbon nanotubes‐ionic liquid‐modified carbon paste electrode (MWCNT‐IL‐CPE) have been studied by cyclic voltammetry. In the presence of DNA, the cathodic peak current of Fu decreased and the peak potential shifted to a positive potential, indicating the intercalative interaction of Fu with DNA. The binding constant of Fu with DNA and stoichiometric coefficient has been determined according to the Hill's model. This electrochemical method was further applied to the determination of DNA. Two linear calibration curves were obtained for DNA detection in the concentration ranges of 0.03–0.10 and 0.10–4.0 μg l^?1 with a detection limit of 0.027 μg l^?1. The method was successfully applied to analyze Fu in serum samples.

The carbon nanotubes decorated nanoplatinum (CNT‐Pt) were prepared using a chemical reduction method and a novel base electrode was constructed by intercalating CNT‐Pt on the surface of a waxed graphite electrode. The results showed that the nano‐particles of platinum at a waxed graphite electrode exhibits high catalytic activity for the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. The cholesterol oxidase (ChOx), chosen as a model enzyme, was immobilized with sol‐gel on the CNT‐Pt base electrode to construct a biosensor. The current response of the biosensor for cholesterol was very rapid (<20 s). The linear range for cholesterol measurement was 4.0×10^?6 mol/L ?1.0×10^?4 mol/L with a detection limit of 1.4×10^?6 mol/L. The experiments also showed that the ChOx/sol‐gel/CNT‐Pt biosensor was sensitive and stable in detecting cholesterol in serum samples.     

Sensitive Amperometric Determination of Thiocyanates at Ionic Liquid Nanohybrid Kaolinite Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

Electrochemical sensors have been developed by modifying a glassy carbon electrode with organo‐kaolinite hybrid materials. These materials were obtained by the grafting of four ionic liquids (1‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐4‐benzylpyridinium chloride, 1‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐4‐(tert‐butyl)pyridinium chloride, 1‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐4‐ethylpyridinium chloride and 1‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐4‐methylpyridinium chloride) on the interlayer aluminol surfaces of kaolinite. With the presence of ionic liquids in the interlayer space of kaolinite, the hybrid materials acquired anion exchange properties and were successfully applied as electrode modifier for the electroanalysis of thiocyanate (SCN⁻), an anion of medical and environmental concern. A pre‐concentration/detection strategy was used to overcome the interfering effect of the electrolytic solution. After the optimisation of some key experimental parameters (sodium nitrate as electrolyte, 5 min of accumulation time) calibration curves were plotted. Excellent linearity was obtained in the low concentration region (1×10⁻⁶ M to 4×10⁻⁵ M). The lowest detection limit (15 nM) was obtained with the benzylpyridinium functionalized kaolinite and the highest (60 nM) with the methylpyridinium functionalized kaolinite. Interfering anions (NO₃⁻, Cl⁻, SO₄²⁻ and CH₃COO⁻) present in the pre‐concentration solution were found to interfere with SCN⁻ but the sensors remained stable and produced reproducible signals. The most sensitive sensor was successfully applied for the amperometric determination of SCN⁻ in human saliva samples.     

An Amperometric Biosensor Based on the Coimmobilization of Horseradish Peroxidase and Methylene Blue on a Carbon Nanotubes Modified Electrode

A novel hydrogen peroxide biosensor has been constructed based on the characteristics of the carbon nanotube. The multiwall carbon nanotube (MWNT) was used as a coimmobilization matrix to incorporate horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and electron transfer mediator methylene blue (MB) onto a glassy carbon electrode surface. Cyclic voltammetry and amperometric measurements were employed to demonstrate the feasibility of methylene blue as an electron carrier between the immobilized peroxidase and the surface of glassy carbon electrode. The amperometric response of this resulting biosensor to H₂O₂ shows a linear relation in the range from 4 μM to 2 mM. The detection limit was 1 μM when the signal to noise ratio is 3. The presence of dopamine and ascorbic acid hardly affects the sensitive determination of H₂O₂. This biosensor also possesses very good stability and reproducibility.

UV‐vis absorption spectroscopic result indicated that Hb remained its native conformation in the composite film. The fabricated Nafion/Hb/DNA/CILE was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). A pair of well‐defined redox peaks was obtained on the modified electrode, indicated that the Nafion and DNA composite film provided an excellent biocompatible microenvironment for keeping the native structure of Hb and promoting the direct electron transfer rate of Hb with the basal electrode. The electrochemical parameters of Hb in the composite film were further calculated with the results of the charge transfer coefficient (α) and the apparent heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k_s) as 0.41 and 0.31 s^?1. The proposed electrochemical biosensor showed good electrocatalytic response to the reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA), H₂O₂, NO and the apparent Michaelis–Menten constant (K_M^app) for the electrocatalytic reaction was calculated, respectively.

Square wave voltammetry (SWV) exhibits a linear dynamic range from 7.0×10^?8 to 5.0×10^?4 M and a detection limit of 40.0 nM for hydrazine. The diffusion coefficient and kinetic parameters (such as electron transfer coefficient and the heterogeneous rate constant) for hydrazine oxidation were also determined. The prepared modified electrode exhibits a very good resolution between the voltammetric peaks of hydrazine and phenol that makes it suitable for the detection of hydrazine in the presence of phenol in real samples.

Carbon Nanotubes‐Based Amperometric Cholesterol Biosensor Fabricated Through Layer‐by‐Layer Technique

A carbon nanotubes‐based amperometric cholesterol biosensor has been fabricated through layer‐by‐layer (LBL) deposition of a cationic polyelectrolyte (PDDA, poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)) and cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) on multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)‐modified gold electrode, followed by electrochemical generation of a nonconducting poly(o‐phenylenediamine) (PPD) film as the protective coating. Electrochemical impedance measurements have shown that PDDA/ChOx multilayer film could be formed uniformly on MWNTs‐modified gold electrode. Due to the strong electrocatalytic properties of MWNTs toward H₂O₂ and the low permeability of PPD film for electroacitve species, such as ascorbic acid, uric acid and acetaminophen, the biosensor has shown high sensitivity and good anti‐interferent ability in the detection of cholesterol. The effect of the pH value of the detection solution on the response of the biosensor was also investigated. A linear range up to 6.0 mM has been observed for the biosensor with a detection limit of 0.2 mM. The apparent Michaelis‐Menten constant and the maximum response current density were calculated to be 7.17 mM and 7.32 μA cm^?2, respectively.

Normal interfering compounds, such as ascorbic acid and uric acid do not affect the determination. The high sensitivity and outstanding selectivity are attributed to the Prussian Blue film modified on the sensor.

Electrochemical Characteristics of Glucose Oxidase Adsorbed at Carbon Nanotubes Modified Electrode with Ionic Liquid as Binder

Multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs)‐modified electrode has been prepared by using ionic liquid (IL) as the binder. The as‐prepared CNTs‐IL composite modified electrode has good biocompatibility and is a suitable matrix to immobilize biomolecules. Glucose oxidase (GOx), containing flavin adenine dinucleotide as active site, stably adsorbed on modified electrode surface has resulted in the direct electron transfer. The electron transfer rate of 9.08 s^?1 obtained is much higher than that of GOx adsorbed on the CNTs papers (1.7 s^?1), and the process is more reversible with small redox peak separation of 23 mV. This may be due to the synergetic promotion of CNTs and IL to electron transfer of the protein, especially the IL as the binder, showing better electrochemical properties than that of chitosan and Nafion. Furthermore, GOx adsorbed at the modified electrode exhibits good stability and keeps good electrocatalytic activity to glucose with broad linear range up to 20 mM. Besides, the simple preparation procedure and easy renewability make the system a basis to investigate the electron transfer kinetics and biocatalytic performance of GOx and provide a promising platform for the development of biosensors.
