Direct electrodeposition of a biocomposite consisting of reduced graphene oxide, chitosan and glucose oxidase on a glassy carbon electrode for direct sensing of glucose

We have electrodeposited a composite film consisting of graphene oxide, chitosan and glucose oxidase directly on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) through electrochemical reduction of a solution of the 3 components under controlled direct electrical potential. The procedure takes only several minutes, and the thickness of the resulting film is uniform and controllable. The GOx has uncompromised bioactivity and exhibits reversible 2-proton and 2-electron transfer in presence of glucose. It therefore can be used amperometric sensing of glucose. The biosensor has a fast response (<3 s), a detection limit of 0.4 μM (which is 50-fold lower compared to the biosensor prepared by drop-casting solutions of the same materials onto an GCE), and a linear response in the 0.4 μM to 2 mM concentration range (which again is much better than that of the biosensor prepared by the drop-casting method). Other features include high reproducibility, long-time storage stability, and satisfactory selectivity. We presume that the direct single-step electrodeposition of this nanocomposite offers a promising approach towards novel types of highly sensitive and stable electrochemical biosensors.

Rapid and simple preparation of a reagentless glucose electrochemical biosensor

A rapid and simple procedure was developed for the preparation of a highly stable and leach-proof glucose oxidase (GOx)-bound glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Crosslinked GOx via glutaraldehyde was drop-cast on a KOH-pretreated GCE followed by drop-casting of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) to form a stable bioactive layer. At -0.45 V, the biosensor exhibited a wide dynamic detection range of 0.5-48 mM for commercial glucose and 1.3-28.2 mM for Sugar-Chex blood glucose linearity standards. Several endogenous electroactive substances and drug metabolites commonly found in blood were tested and provoked no signal response. To our knowledge, the developed procedure is the most rapid method for preparing a glucose biosensor. The biosensor suffered no biofouling after 7 days of immersion in Sugar-Chex blood glucose. With excellent production reproducibility, GOx-bound electrodes stored dry at room temperature retained their initial activity after several weeks.     

An amperometric glucose biosensor based on the immobilization of glucose oxidase on the CuGeO3 nanowire modified electrode

A new amperometric biosensor based on adsorption of glucose oxidase (GOx) at the CuGeO₃ nanowires (NW) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) is reported in this article. The properties of the biosensor were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical techniques. The GCE modified with the CuGeO₃ NW/GOD showed excellent electrocatalytical response to the oxidation of glucose. Different parameters including GOx concentration, working potential and pH of supporting electrolyte that governed the analytical performance of the biosensor have been studied in detail and optimized. The biosensor was applied to detect glucose with a linear range of 0.5 to 7 mM. The biosensor exhibited excellent reproducibility and stability.     

Direct electrochemistry of glucose oxidase immobilized on NdPO4 nanoparticles/chitosan composite film on glassy carbon electrodes and its biosensing application

The direct electrochemistry of glucose oxidase (GOx) immobilized on a composite matrix based on chitosan (CHIT) and NdPO(4) nanoparticles (NPs) underlying on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was achieved. The cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to characterize the modified electrode. In deaerated buffer solutions, the cyclic voltammetry of the composite films of GOx/NdPO(4) NPs/CHIT showed a pair of well-behaved redox peaks that are assigned to the redox reaction of GOx, confirming the effective immobilization of GOx on the composite film. The electron transfer rate constant was estimated to be 5.0 s(-1). The linear dynamic range for the detection of glucose was 0.15-10 mM with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 and the detection limit was estimated at about 0.08 mM (S/N=3). The calculated apparent Michaelis-Menten constant was 2.5 mM, which suggested a high affinity of the enzyme-substrate. The immobilized GOx in the NdPO(4) NPs/CHIT composite film retained its bioactivity. Furthermore, the method presented here can be easily extended to immobilize and obtain the direct electrochemistry of other redox enzymes or proteins.     

Sol–gel immobilized enzymatic glucose biosensor on gold interdigitated array (IDA) microelectrode

An enzymatic glucose biosensor with good sensitivity, selectivity and stability employing interdigitated array microelectrode (IDA μ-electrode) was reported. IDA μ-electrode was prepared by photolithography method with its surface immobilized with a layer of glucose oxidase (GOx), entrapped in a three-dimensional network composed of chitosan and tetraethyl orthosilicate sol–gel. The surface of the as-prepared IDA μ-electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscope, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis, and atomic force microscopy. The experimental parameters for the best glucose sensing performance were optimized according to the loading of GOx, the applied voltages, the concentration of mediator, and the pH for glucose detection. The resulted biosensor exhibited a good response to glucose with a wide linear range from 0 to 35 mM and a low detection limit of 1 mM. The glucose sensor also showed a short response time (within 5 s) that the fast response was reflected by the small Michaelis–Menten constant (K_M ^app) with a value of 2.94 mM. The reported glucose biosensor exhibited good sensitivity (8.74 μA/mM.cm²), reproducibility, and stability.

A simple glucose biosensor has been developed based on direct electrochemistry of glucose oxidase (GOx) immobilized on the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and β‐cyclodextrin (CD) composite. A well‐defined redox couple of GOx appears with a formal potential of ～?0.459 V at RGO/CD composite. A heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (K_s) has been calculated for GOx at RGO/CD as 3.8 s^?1. The fabricated biosensor displays a wide response to glucose in the linear concentrations range from 50 µM to 3.0 mM. The sensitivity and limit of detection of the biosensor is estimated as 59.74 µA mM^?1 cm^?2 and 12 µM, respectively.     

Development of amperometric glucose biosensor through immobilizing enzyme in a Pt nanoparticles/mesoporous carbon matrix

Pt nanoparticles were deposited on mesoporous carbon material CMK-3. Glucose oxidase (GOx) was immobilized in the resulting Pt nanoparticles/mesoporous carbon (Pt/CMK-3) matrix, and then the mixture was cast on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using gelatin as a binder. The glucose biosensor exhibited excellent current response to glucose after cross-linking with glutaraldehyde. At 0.6V (vs. SCE) the response current was linear to glucose concentration in the range of 0.04-12.2mM. The response time (time for achieving 95% of the maximum current) was 15s and the detection limit (S/N=3) was 1 microM. The Michaelis-Menten constant (K(m)(app)) and the maximum current density (i(max)) were 10.8 mM and 908 microAcm(-2), respectively. The activation energy of the enzymatic reaction was estimated to be 22.54 kJ mol(-1). The biosensor showed good stability. It achieved the maximum response current at about 52 degrees C and retained 95.1% of its initial response current after being stored for 30 days. In addition, some fabrication and operation parameters for the biosensor were optimized in this work. The biosensor was used to monitor the glucose levels of serum samples after being covered with an extra Nafion film to improve its anti-interferent ability and satisfied results were obtained.     

Direct electrochemical sensing of glucose using glucose oxidase immobilized on functionalized carbon nanotubes via a novel metal chelate-based affinity method

We report on a novel amperometric glassy carbon biosensing electrode for glucose. It is based on the immobilization of a highly sensitive glucose oxidase (GOx) by affinity interaction on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) functionalized with iminodiacetic acid and metal chelates. The new technique for immobilization is exploiting the affinity of Co(II) ions to the histidine and cysteine moieties on the surface of GOx. The direct electrochemistry of immobilized GOx revealed that the functionalized CNTs greatly improve the direct electron transfer between GOx and the surface of the electrode to give a pair of well-defined and almost reversible redox peaks and undergoes fast heterogeneous electron transfer with a rate constant (k _s) of 0.59?s^?1. The GOx immobilized in this way fully retained its activity for the oxidation of glucose. The resulting biosensor is capable of detecting glucose at levels as low as 0.01?mM, and has excellent operational stability (with no decrease in the activity of enzyme over a 10?days period). The method of immobilizing GOx is easy and also provides a model technique for potential use with other redox enzymes and proteins.

Pt nanoparticles modified Au nanowire array for amperometric and potentiometric detection of glucose

A new glucose biosensor, based on the modification of highly ordered Au nanowire arrays (ANs) with Pt nanoparticles (PtNPs) and subsequent surface adsorption of glucose oxidase (GOx), is described. Morphologies of ANs and ANs/PtNPs were observed by scanning electron microscope. The electrochemical properties of ANs, ANs/GOx, ANs/PtNPs, and ANs/PtNPs/GOx electrodes were compared by cyclic voltammetry. Results obtained from comparison of the cyclic voltammograms show that PtNPs modification enhances electrochemical catalytic activity of ANs to H₂O₂. Hence, ANs/PtNPs/GOx biosensor exhibits much better sensing to glucose than ANs/GOx. Optimum deposition time of ANs/PtNPs/GOx biosensor for both amperometric and potentiometric detection of glucose was achieved to be 150 s at deposition current of 1?×?10^?6 A. A sensitivity of 0.365 μA/mM with a linear range from 0.1 to 7 mM was achieved for amperometric detection; while for potentiometric detection the sensitivity is 33.4 mV/decade with a linear range from 0.1 to 7 mM.     

Mediatorless amperometric bienzyme glucose biosensor based on horseradish peroxidase and glucose oxidase cross-linked to multiwall carbon nanotubes

We report on a bienzyme-channeling sensor for sensing glucose without the aid of mediator. It was fabricated by cross-linking horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and glucose oxidase (GOx) on a glassy carbon electrode modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). The bienzyme was cross-linked with the MWNTs by glutaraldehyde and bovine serum albumin. The MWNTs were employed to accelerate the electron transfer between immobilized HRP and electrode. Glucose was sensed by amperometric reduction of enzymatically generated H₂O₂ at an applied voltage of ?50 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl). Factors influencing the preparation and performance of the bienzyme electrode were investigated in detail. The biosensor exhibited a fast and linear response to glucose in the concentration range from 0.4 to 15 mM, with a detection limit of 0.4 mM. The sensor exhibited good selectivity and durability, with a long-term relative standard deviation of <5 %. Analysis of glucose-spiked human serum samples yielded recoveries between 96 and 101 %.

Amperometric glucose sensor based on glucose oxidase immobilized on gelatin-multiwalled carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode

We investigated the direct electrochemistry of glucose oxidase (GOx) at gelatin-multiwalled carbon nanotube (GCNT) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). GOx was covalently immobilized onto GCNT modified GCE through the well known glutaraldehyde (GAD) chemistry. The immobilized GOx showed a pair of well-defined reversible redox peaks with a formal potential (E⁰′) of ? 0.40 V and a peak to peak separation (ΔE_p) of 47 mV. The surface coverage concentration (Г) of GOx in GCNT/GOx/GAD composite film modified GCE was 3.88 × 10^? 9 mol cm^? 2 which indicates the high enzyme loading. The electron transfer rate constant (k_s) of GOx immobilized onto GCNT was 1.08 s^? 1 which validates a rapid electron transfer processes. The composite film shows linear response towards 6.30 to 20.09 mM glucose. We observed a good sensitivity of 2.47 μA mM^?1 cm^? 2 for glucose at the composite film. The fabricated biosensor displayed two weeks stability. Moreover, it shows no response to 0.5 mM of ascorbic acid (AA), uric acid (UA), acetaminophen (AP), pyruvate (PA) and lactate (LA) which shows its potential application in the determination of glucose from human serum samples. The composite film exhibits excellent recovery for glucose in human serum at physiological pH with good practical applicability.     

Construction of a biointerface for glucose oxidase through diazonium chemistry and electrostatic self-assembly technique

In this study, a new procedure for the fabrication of biosensors was developed. The method is based on the covalent attachment of nitrophenyl groups to the electrode surface via diazonium salt reaction followed by their conversion to amine moieties through electrochemical reduction and electrostatic layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly technique. In this procedure, highly stable iron oxide (Fe₃O₄) nanoparticles (IONPs), chitosan (CHIt), GOx, and Nile blue (NB) were assembled on the surface of aminophenyl modified glassy carbon electrode (AP/GCE) by LbL assembly technique. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to characterize the interfaces. The surface coverage of the active GOx and Michaelis–Menten constant (K _M) of the immobilized GOx were Γ?=?3.38?×?10^?11 mol cm^?2 and 2.54 mM, respectively. The developed biosensor displayed a well-defined amperometric response for glucose determination with high sensitivity (8.07 μA mM^?1) and low limit of detection (LOD) of 19.0 μM. The proposed approach allows simple biointerface regeneration by increasing pH which causes disruption of the ionic interactions and release of the electrostatic attached layers. The biosensor can then be reconstructed again using fresh enzyme. Simple preparation, good chemical and mechanical stabilities, and easy surface renewal are remarkable advantages of the proposed biosensor fabrication procedure.     

Ionic liquid/graphene oxide as a nanocomposite for improving the direct electrochemistry and electrocatalytic activity of glucose oxidase

By combination of 1-ethyl-3-methyl immidazolium ethyl sulfate as a typical room temperature ionic liquid (IL) and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, a nanocomposite was introduced for improving the direct electrochemistry and electrocatalytic activity of glucose oxidase (GOx). The enzyme on the IL–GO-modified glassy carbon electrode exhibited a quasireversible cyclic voltammogram corresponding to the flavine adenine dinucleotide/FADH₂ redox prosthetic group of GOx. At the scan rate of 100 mV?s^?1, the enzyme showed a peak-to-peak potential separation of 82 mV and the formal potential of ?463 mV (vs Ag/AgCl in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution, pH?7.0). The kinetic parameters of the charge transfer rate constant, the electron transfer coefficient, and the apparent Michaelis–Menten constant were calculated as 1.36 s^?1 and 0.35 and 2.47 μM, respectively. When the modified electrode was examined as a biosensor for glucose determination, a linear range of 2.5–45 nM with detection limit of 0.175 nM (signal to noise?=?3) was obtained. The biosensor was stable for 2 months.     

Direct electrochemistry of glucose oxidase immobilized on TiO2–graphene/nickel oxide nanocomposite film and its application

A novel electrochemical platform based on nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles and TiO₂–graphene (TiO₂–Gr) was developed for the direct electrochemistry of glucose oxidase (GOD). The electrochemical behavior of the sensor was studied using cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The experimental results demonstrated that the nanocomposite well retained the activity of GOD and the modified electrode GOD/NiO/TiO₂–Gr/GCE exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the redox of GOD as evidenced by the significant enhancement of redox peak currents in comparison with bare GCE. The biosensor responded linearly to glucose in the range of 1.0–12.0?mM, with a sensitivity of 4.129?μA?mM^?1 and a detection limit of 1.2?×?10^?6?M under optimized conditions. The response time of the biosensor was 3?s. In addition, the developed biosensor possessed good reproducibility and stability, and there was negligible interference from other electroactive components.     

A biosensor prepared by co-entrapment of a glucose oxidase and a carbon nanotube within an electrochemically deposited redox polymer multilayer

A glucose biosensor based on a nanocomposite made by layer-by-layer electrodeposition of the redox polymer into a multilayer containing glucose oxidase (GOx) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) surface was developed. The objectives of the electrodeposition of redox polymer are to stabilize further the multilayer using a coordinative cross-linked redox polymer and to wire the GOx. The electrochemistry of the layer-by-layer assembly of the GOx/SWCNT/redox polymer nanocomposite was followed by cyclic voltammetry. The resultant biosensor provided stable and reproducible electrocatalytic responses to glucose, and the electrocatalytic current for glucose oxidation was enhanced with an increase in the number of layers. The biosensor displayed a linear range from 0.5 to 6.0mM, a sensitivity of 16.4μA/(mMcm(2)), and a response time of about 5s. It shows no response to 0.05mM of ascorbic acid, 0.32mM of uric acid and 0.20mM of acetaminophen using a Nafion membrane covering the nanocomposite-modified electrode surface.     

Electrocatalytic Oxidation of Glucose by the Glucose Oxidase Immobilized in Graphene‐Au‐Nafion Biocomposite

Graphene was successfully prepared and well separated to individual sheets by introducing  SO₃⁻. XRD and TEM were employed to characterize the graphene. UV‐visible absorption spectra indicated that glucose oxidase (GOx) could keep bioactivity well in the graphene‐Au biocomposite. To construct a novel glucose biosensor, graphene, Au and GOx were co‐immobilized in Nafion to further modify a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Electrochemical measurements were carried out to investigate the catalytic performance of the proposed biosensor. Cyclic voltammograms (CV) showed the biosensor had a typical catalytic oxidation response to glucose. At the applied potential +0.4 V, the biosensor responded rapidly upon the addition of glucose and reached the steady state current in 5 s, with the present of hydroquinone. The linear range is from 15 μM to 5.8 mM, with a detection limit 5 μM (based on the S/N=3). The Michaelis‐Menten constant was calculated to be 4.4 mM according to Lineweaver–Burk equation. In addition, the biosensor exhibits good reproducibility and long‐term stability. Such impressive properties could be ascribed to the synergistic effect of graphene‐Au integration and good biocompatibility of the hybrid material.

We have developed an enzymatic glucose biosensor that is based on a flat platinum electrode which was covered with electrophoretically deposited rhodium (Rh) nanoparticles and then sintered to form a large surface area. The biosensor was obtained by depositing glucose oxidase (GOx), Nafion, and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the Rh electrode. The electrical potential and the fractions of Nafion and GOx were optimized. The resulting biosensor has a very high sensitivity (68.1 μA mM^?1 cm^?2) and good linearity in the range from 0.05 to 15 mM (r?=?0.989). The limit of detection is as low as 0.03 mM (at an SNR of 3). The glucose biosensor also is quite selective and is not interfered by electroactive substances including ascorbic acid, uric acid and acetaminophen. The lifespan is up to 90 days. It was applied to the determination of glucose in blood serum, and the results compare very well with those obtained with a clinical analyzer.

New Nanocomposite Based on Prussian Blue Nanoparticles/Carbon Nanotubes/Chitosan and Its Application for Assembling of Amperometric Glucose Biosensor

Abstract

A new nanocomposite was developed by combination of prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) in the matrix of biopolymer chitosan (CHIT). The PB and MWNTs had a synergistic electrocatalytic effect toward the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. The CHIT/MWNTs/PB nanocomposite‐modified glassy carbon (GC) electrode could amplify the reduction current of hydrogen peroxide by ～35 times compared with that of CHIT/MWNTs/GC electrode and reduce the response time from ～60 s for CHIT/PB/GC to 3 s. Besides, the CHIT/MWNTs/PB nanocomposite‐modified GC electrode could reduce hydrogen peroxide at a much lower applied potential and inhibit the responses of interferents such as ascorbic acid (AA) uric acid (UA) and acetaminophen (AC). With glucose oxidase (GOx) as an enzyme model, a new glucose biosensor was fabricated. The biosensor exhibited excellent sensitivity (the detection limit is down to 2.5 µM), fast response time (less than 5 s), wide linear range (from 4 µM to 2 mM), and good selection.     

Simple construction of an enzymatic glucose biosensor based on a nanocomposite film prepared in one step from iron oxide, gold nanoparticles, and chitosan

The one-step synthesis is reported of a nanofilm composed of iron oxide and gold nanoparticles in a chitosan matrix that can act as a novel matrix for the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx) to fabricate a glucose biosensor. The use for the composite film strongly increased the effective electrode surface for loading of GOx. The size and shape of the iron oxide nanoparticles were examined by transmission electron micrograph. Direct electron transfer and electrocatalysis by GOx was investigated via cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. Under optimized conditions, the biosensor has a response time of 6?s and a linear response in the range between 3???M and 0.57?mM of glucose, with a detection limit of 1.2???M at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. This novel and disposable mediatorless glucose biosensor may form the basis for a future mass-produced glucose biosensor.
