The detection of hydrogen peroxide is detailed using horseradish peroxidase and anthraquinone. Both species are immobilized on a glassy carbon electrode substrate. 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.     

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.

Mediated amperometric enzyme electrode incorporating peroxidase for the determination of hydrogen peroxide in organic solvents

An amperometric enzyme electrode incorporating horseradish peroxidase is described for the determination of hydrogen peroxide in organic solvents. The enzyme was co-adsorbed with an electron mediator, potassium hexacyanoferrate(II), on the surface of a graphite foil electrode, making reagentless measurement possible. The electrochemical reduction of the enzymatically oxidized mediator was utilized as the analytical signal. Studies in different solvent systems revealed that the electrode could be operated in dioxane, chloroform and chlorobenzene, the last two providing approximately double the sensitivity of the former. The presence of a small amount of aqueous buffer was essential for sensor activity. During 2 weeks of intermittent use, the sensitivity of the electrode decreased to 40% of its initial value. At least 50 assays could be performed with a single sensor.     

Spectrophotometric determination of enzymatically generated hydrogen peroxide using Sol-Gel immobilized horseradish peroxidase

Peroxidase entrapment in different Sol-Gel matrices was successful. The enzyme did not show a decrease in activity for at least 2 months as well as storage at room temperature and dry condition for periods exceeding 3 weeks. It was evident that the enzymatic activity was a function in the type of the alkoxysilane precursor. In addition, the optimum temperature which resulted in maximum enzymatic activity was also dependent on the type of Sol-Gel matrix. Excellent results were obtained for the determination of glucose in serum samples using soluble glucose oxidase in conjunction with the Sol-Gel entrapped peroxidase. The enzymatically produced hydrogen peroxide is oxidized by the entrapped peroxidase yielding oxygen which oxidizes the faint blue variamine blue into the intensely violet colored species (the molar absorptivity is about 1.8 x 10(4) 1 mol(-1) cm(-1)). The characteristics of this chromogenic system as well as optimized conditions for its use in the spectrophotometric determination of enzymatically generated hydrogen peroxide were investigated. Excellent agreement between the results obtained by the proposed method and the widely used standard method, utilizing a commercial reagents kit, was always observed.

An amperometric hydrogen peroxide biosensor based on immobilization of horseradish peroxidase on an electrode modified with magnetic dextran microspheres

A new kind of magnetic dextran microsphere (MDMS) with uniform shape and narrow diameter distribution has been prepared from magnetic iron nanoparticles and dextran. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was successfully immobilized on the surface of an MDMS-modified glassy-carbon electrode (GCE), and the immobilized HRP displayed excellent electrocatalytic activity in the reduction of H₂O₂ in the presence of the mediator hydroquinone (HQ). The effects of experimental variables such as the concentration of HQ, solution pH, and the working potential were investigated for optimum analytical performance. This biosensor had a fast response to H₂O₂ of less than 10 s and an excellent linear relationship was obtained in the concentration range 0.20 μmol L⁻¹–0.68 mmol L⁻¹, with a detection limit of 0.078 μmol L⁻¹ (S/N = 3) under the optimum conditions. The response showed Michaelis–Menten behavior at larger H₂O₂ concentrations, and the apparent Michaelis–Menten constant was estimated to be 1.38 mmol L⁻¹. Moreover, the selectivity, stability, and reproducibility of the biosensor were evaluated, with satisfactory results.

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.

Based on the reaction, O2- produced by irradiating Vitamin B2, (VB2) was spectrophotometricly determined at 554 nm. The linear range of this method was 1.8 x 10(-6)-1.2 x 10(-4) mol l(-1) with a detection limit of 5.3 x 10(-7) mol l(-1). The effect of interferences on the determination of O2- was investigated. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in human blood and mouse blood.     

Immobilization of horseradish peroxidase to a nano-Au monolayer modified chitosan-entrapped carbon paste electrode for the detection of hydrogen peroxide

A procedure for fabricating an enzyme electrode has been described based on the effective immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) to a nano-scaled particulate gold (nano-Au) monolayer modified chitosan-entrapped carbon paste electrode (CCPE). The high affinity of chitosan entrapped in CCPE for nano-Au associated with its amino groups has been utilized to realize the use of nano-Au as an intermediator to retain high bioactivity of the enzyme. Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) was determined in the presence of hydroquinone as a mediator to transfer electrons between the electrode and HRP. The HRP immobilized on nano-Au displayed excellent electrocatalytical activity to the reduction of H₂O₂. The effects of experimental variables such as the operating potential of the working electrode, mediator concentration and pH of measuring solution were investigated for optimum analytical performance by using an amperometric method. The enzyme electrode provided a linear response to hydrogen peroxide over a concentration range of 1.22×10⁻⁵-2.43×10⁻³ mol l⁻¹ with a sensitivity of 0.013 A l mol⁻¹ cm⁻² and a detection limit of 6.3 μmol l⁻¹ based on signal per noise =3. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (K_m^app) for the sensor was found to be 0.36 mmol l⁻¹. The lifetime, fabrication reproducibility and measurement repeatability were evaluated with satisfactory results. The analysis results of real sample by this sensor were in satisfactory agreement with those of the potassium permanganate titration method.     

Development of hydrogen peroxide biosensor based on in situ covalent immobilization of horseradish peroxidase by one-pot polysaccharide-incorporated sol-gel process

A simple and reliable one-pot approach was established for the development of a novel hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) biosensor based on in situ covalent immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) into biocompatible material through polysaccharide-incorporated sol-gel process. Siloxane with epoxide ring and trimethoxy anchor groups was applied as the bifunctional cross-linker and the inorganic resource for organic-inorganic hybridization. The reactivity between amine groups and epoxy groups allowed the covalent incorporation of HRP and the functional biopolymer, chitosan (CS) into the inorganic polysiloxane network. Some experimental variables, such as mass ratio of siloxane to CS, pH of measuring solution and applied potential for detection were optimized. HRP covalently immobilized in the hybrid matrix possessed high electrocatalytic activity to H₂O₂ and provided a fast amperometric response. The linear response of the as-prepared biosensor for the determination of H₂O₂ ranged from 2.0 × 10⁻⁷ to 4.6 × 10⁻⁵ mol l⁻¹ with a detection limit of 8.1 × 10⁻⁸ mol l⁻¹. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant was determined to be 45.18 μmol l⁻¹. Performance of the biosensor was also evaluated with respect to possible interferences. The fabricated biosensor exhibited high reproducibility and storage stability. The ease of the one-pot covalent immobilization and the biocompatible hybrid matrix serve as a versatile platform for enzyme immobilization and biosensor fabricating.     

Amperometric biosensor for hydrogen peroxide based on coimmobilized horseradish peroxidase and methylene green in ormosils matrix with multiwalled carbon nanotubes

A novel amperometric biosensor for the analytical determination of hydrogen peroxide was developed. The fabrication of the biosensor was based on the coimmobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), methylene green (MG) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes within ormosils; 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMOS), 2-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane (ETMOS) and phenyltrimethoxysilane (PHTMOS). APTMOS determined the hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity of the ormosils and PHTMOS and ETMOS increased the physical and mechanical strength of the ormosil matrix. The ormosil modified electrodes were characterized with SEM, UV-vis spectroscopy and electrochemical methods. Cyclic voltammetry and amperometric measurements demonstrated the MG coimmobilized with HRP in this way, displayed good stability and could efficiently shuttle electrons between immobilized enzyme and electrode, and MWCNTs facilitated the electrocatalytic reduction of H₂O₂ at reduced over potential. The Micheaelis constant of the immobilized HRP was 1.8 mM, indicating a high affinity of the HRP to H₂O₂ without loss of enzymatic activity in ormosil matrix. The prepared biosensor had a fast response of H₂O₂, less than 10 s, and excellent linear range of concentration from 5 × 10⁻⁷ to 2 × 10⁻⁵ M with the detection limit of 0.5 μM (S/N = 3) under the optimum conditions. At the same time, the influence of solution pH, effect of enzyme amount, steady-state applied potential and temperature on the biosensor were investigated. The enzyme electrode retained about 90% of its initial activity after 30 days of storage in a dry state at 4 °C. The preparation of the developed biosensor was convenient and showed high sensitivity with good stability.

Time-resolved enzymatic determination of glucose using a fluorescent europium probe for hydrogen peroxide

An enzymatic assay for glucose based on the use of the fluorescent probe for hydrogen peroxide, europium(III) tetracycline (EuTc), is described. The weakly fluorescent EuTc and enzymatically generated H₂O₂ form a strongly fluorescent complex (EuTc–H₂O₂) whose fluorescence decay profile is significantly different. Since the decay time of EuTc–H₂O₂ is in the microseconds time domain, fluorescence can be detected in the time-resolved mode, thus enabling substantial reduction of background fluorescence. The scheme represents the first H₂O₂-based time-resolved fluorescence assay for glucose not requiring the presence of a peroxidase. The time-resolved assay (with a delay time of 60 s and using endpoint detection) enables glucose to be determined at levels as low as 2.2 mol L^–1, with a dynamic range of 2.2–100 mol L^–1. The method also was adapted to a kinetic assay in order to cover higher glucose levels (mmol L^–1 range). The latter was validated by analyzing spiked serum samples and gave a good linear relationship for glucose levels from 2.5 to 55.5 mmol L^–1. Noteworthy features of the assay include easy accessibility of the probe, large Stokes shift, a line-like fluorescence peaking at 616 nm, stability towards oxygen, a working pH of approximately 7, and its suitability for both kinetic and endpoint determination.
