Minimization of Interferences in Flow Injection Amperometric Glucose Biosensor Based on Oxidation of Enzymatically‐produced H2O2

One of the major problems in amperometric biosensors based on detection of H₂O₂ produced by enzymatic reaction between oxidase enzymes and substrate is the interference of redox active compounds such as ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). To minimize these interferences, sodium bismuthate was used for the first time as an insoluble pre‐oxidant in the flow injection (FI) amperometric glucose biosensor at a Glucose oxidase (GOx) immobilized Pt/Pd bimetallic modified pre‐anodized pencil graphite electrode (p.PGE). In this context, these interfering compounds were injected into a flow injection analysis (FIA) system using an injector which was filled with NaBiO₃. Thus, these interferents were converted into their redox inactive oxidized forms before reaching the electrode in the flow cell. While glucose was not influenced by the pre‐oxidant in the injector, the huge oxidation peak currents of the interferents decreased significantly in the biosensor. FI amperometric current time curves showed that the AA, DA and UA were minimized by 96 %, 86 %, and 98 % respectively, in the presence of an equivalent concentration of interferences in a 1.0 mM glucose solution. The proposed FI amperometric glucose biosensor exhibits a wide linear range (0.01–10 mM, R²=0.9994) with a detection limit of 2.4×10^?3 mM. Glucose levels in the artificial serum and two real samples were successfully determined using the fabricated FI amperometric biosensor.     

Preparation of selective micro glucose sensor without permselective membrane by electrochemical deposition of ruthenium and glucose oxidase

A carbon fiber microelectrode, surface of which ruthenium and glucose oxidase (GOx) were electrochemically codeposited, has been investigated. The Ru deposition onto the microelectrode increased current response to H₂O₂ oxidation, while decreased oxidation currents due to interfering substances, such as ascorbic acid, uric acid, p-acetamidophenol, l-cysteine and dopamine. The codeposition of Ru and GOx gave further suppression of the interfering signals with keeping the current response to H₂O₂. When amperometric glucose sensing was conducted by using the GOx and Ru modified microelectrode, an increase in GOx concentration in the deposition bath enlarged oxidation current of H₂O₂ generated from glucose oxidation by GOx. The presence of ascorbic acid in analyte gave no error in detection of glucose and errors caused by uric acid was +3% at the most for measuring 5 mM glucose, which is the normal physiological level in blood.     

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.

Evaluation of Some Redox Mediators in the Design of Reagentless Amperometric Glucose Biosensor

The influence of redox mediators (tetrathiafulvalene (TTF), tetrathiafulvalene‐tetracyanoquinodimethane complex (TTF‐TCNQ), phenazine methosulfate (PMS), 5,6‐diamino‐1,10‐phenonthroline (5,6‐DAP), potassium ferrocyanide (K4[Fe(CN)6]), methylene blue (MB) and toluidine blue (TB)) on the response of amperometric glucose biosensor was investigated in this research. Graphite rod electrode (GRE) modified by adsorbed mediator and glucose oxidase (GOx) cross‐linked with glutaraldehyde was served as working electrode. The highest amperometric signals were observed by using TTF and TTF‐TCNQ as mediators. The impact of amount of immobilized GOx, an optimal pH region for operation, stability and reproducibility of the analytic signal of designed biosensor using these mediators were investigated and discussed.     

Avidin and Glucose Oxidase‐non‐covalently Functionalized Multi‐walled Carbon Nanotubes: A New Analytical Tool for Building a Bienzymatic Glucose Biosensor

We report an innovative supramolecular architecture for bienzymatic glucose biosensing based on the non‐covalently functionalization of multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with two proteins, glucose oxidase (GOx) (to recognize glucose) and avidin (to allow the specific anchoring of biotinylated horseradish peroxidase (b‐HRP)). The optimum functionalization was obtained by sonicating for 10 min 0.50 mg mL^?1 MWCNTs in a solution of 2.00 mg mL^?1 GOx+1.00 mg mL^?1avidin prepared in 50 : 50 v/v ethanol/water. The sensitivity to glucose for glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) modified with MWCNTs‐GOx‐avidin dispersion and b‐HRP (GCE/MWCNTs‐GOx‐avidin/b‐HRP), obtained from amperometric experiments performed at ?0.100 V in the presence of 5.0×10^?4 M hydroquinone, was (4.8±0.3) μA mM^?1 (r²=0.9986) and the detection limit was 1.2 μM. The reproducibility for 5 electrodes using the same MWCNTs/GOx‐avidin dispersion was 4.0 %, while the reproducibility for 3 different dispersions and 9 electrodes was 6.0 %. The GCE/MWCNT‐GOx‐avidin/b‐HRP was successfully used for the quantification of glucose in a pharmaceutical product and milk.     

Glucose Microbiosensor Based on MnO2 and Glucose Oxidase Modified Carbon Fiber Microelectrode

A glucose microbiosensor has been developed using electrochemical codeposition of glucose oxidase (GOx) along with MnO₂ as mediator, onto a single carbon fiber microelectrode. A two‐step deposition of only MnO₂ initially and then of MnO₂ in the presence of GOx has been introduced to ensure appropriate activity of the mediator. Several parameters such as deposition potential and time, concentration levels etc. have been characterized and optimized. A thin Nafion film was applied as an immobilization/encapsulation and interference‐free protective layer. The proposed microbiosensor was employed as an amperometric glucose detector at pH 7.5 at an operating potential of +0.58 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The microbiosensor is characterized by a well‐reproducible amperometric response, linear signal‐to‐glucose concentration range from 1.5 mmol L^?1 to 15 mmol L^?1, and a limit of detection (S/N=3) of 0.8 mmol L^?1. The microbiosensor exhibits good stability over more than ten hours of continuous measurement.     

A Glucose Biosensor Based on Immobilization of Glucose Oxidase into 3D Macroporous TiO2

3D macroporous TiO₂ inverse opals have been derived from a sol‐gel procedure using polystyrene colloidal crystals as templates. EDS and SEM showed a face‐centered cubic (FCC) structure TiO₂ inverse opal was obtained. Glucose oxidase (GOx) was successfully immobilized on the surface of indium‐tin oxide (ITO) electrode modified by TiO₂ inverse opal (TiO_2(IO)). Electrochemical properties of GOx/TiO_2(IO)/ITO electrode were characterized by using the three electrodes system. The result of cyclic voltammetry showed that a couple of stable and well‐defined redox peaks for the direct electron transfer of GOx in absence of glucose, and the redox peak height enhanced in presence of 0.1 μM glucose. Compare with the ordinary structured GOx/TiO₂/ITO electrode, inverse opal structured GOx/TiO_2(IO)/ITO electrode has a better respond to the glucose concentration change. Under optimized experimental conditions of solution pH 6.8 and detection potential at 0.30 V versus saturated calomel electrode (SCE), amperometric measurements were performed. The sensitivity and the detection limit of glucose detection was 151 μA cm^?2 mM^?1 and 0.02 μM at a signal‐to‐noise ratio of 3, respectively. The good response was due to the good biocompatibility of TiO₂ and the large effective surface of the three‐dimensionally ordered macroporous structure.     

Fabrication of Bienzymatic Glucose Biosensor Based on Novel Gold Nanoparticles‐Bacteria Cellulose Nanofibers Nanocomposite

An exploration of gold nanoparticles–bacterial cellulose nanofibers (Au‐BC) nanocomposite as a platform for amperometric determination of glucose is presented. Two enzymes, glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were immobilized in Au‐BC nanocomposite modified glassy carbon electrode at the same time. A sensitive and fast amperometric response to glucose was observed in the presence of electron mediator (HQ). Both of GOx and HRP kept their biocatalytic activities very well in Au‐BC nanocomposite. The detection limit for glucose in optimized conditions was as low as 2.3 µM with a linear range from 10 µM to 400 µM. The biosensor was successfully applied to the determination of glucose in human blood samples.     

Glucose biosensor based on graphite electrodes modified with glucose oxidase and colloidal gold nanoparticles

The electrochemistry of glucose oxidase (GOx) immobilized on a graphite rod electrode modified by gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) was studied. Two types of amperometric glucose sensors based on GOx immobilized and Au-NPs modified working electrode (Au-NPs/GOx/graphite and GOx/Au-NPs/graphite) were designed and tested in the presence and the absence of N-methylphenazonium methyl sulphate in different buffers. Results were compared to those obtained with similar electrodes not containing Au-NPs (GOx/graphite). This study shows that the application of Au-NPs increases the rate of mediated electron transfer. Major analytical characteristics of the amperometric biosensor based on GOx and 13 nm diameter Au-NPs were determined. The analytical signal was linearly related to glucose concentration in the range from 0.1 to 10 mmol L^?1. The detection limit for glucose was found within 0.1 mmol L^?1 and 0.08 mmol L^?1 and the relative standard deviation in the range of 0.1–100 mol L^?1 was 0.04–0.39%. The τ_1/2 of V _max characterizes the storage stability of sensors: this parameter for the developed GOx/graphite electrode was 49.3 days and for GOx/Au-NPs/graphite electrode was 19.5 days. The sensor might be suitable for determination of glucose in beverages and/or in food.     

A Three-Enzyme Cascade Reaction through Positional Assembly of Enzymes in a Polymersome Nanoreactor

Porous polymersomes based on block copolymers of isocyanopeptides and styrene have been used to anchor enzymes at three different locations, namely, in their lumen (glucose oxidase, GOx), in their bilayer membrane (Candida antarctica lipase B, CalB) and on their surface (horseradish peroxidase, HRP). The surface coupling was achieved by click chemistry between acetylene-functionalised anchors on the surface of the polymersomes and azido functions of HRP, which were introduced by using a direct diazo transfer reaction to lysine residues of the enzyme. To determine the encapsulation and conjugation efficiency of the enzymes, they were decorated with metal-ion labels and analysed by mass spectrometry. This revealed an almost quantitative immobilisation efficiency of HRP on the surface of the polymersomes and a more than statistical incorporation efficiency for CalB in the membrane and for GOx in the aqueous compartment. The enzyme-decorated polymersomes were studied as nanoreactors in which glucose acetate was converted by CalB to glucose, which was oxidised by GOx to gluconolactone in a second step. The hydrogen peroxide produced was used by HRP to oxidise 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) to ABTS^.+. Kinetic analysis revealed that the reaction step catalysed by HRP is the fastest in the cascade reaction.     

Effect of Gold Nanoparticles on the Structure and Electron‐Transfer Characteristics of Glucose Oxidase Redox Polyelectrolyte‐Surfactant Complexes

Efficient electrical communication between redox proteins and electrodes is a critical issue in the operation and development of amperometric biosensors. The present study explores the advantages of a nanostructured redox‐active polyelectrolyte–surfactant complex containing [Os(bpy)₂Clpy]²⁺ (bpy=2,2′‐bipyridine, py= pyridine) as the redox centers and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as nanodomains for boosting the electron‐transfer propagation throughout the assembled film in the presence of glucose oxidase (GOx). Film structure was characterized by grazing‐incidence small‐angle X‐ray scattering (GISAXS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), GOx incorporation was followed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and quartz‐crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D), whereas Raman spectroelectrochemistry and electrochemical studies confirmed the ability of the entrapped gold nanoparticles to enhance the electron‐transfer processes between the enzyme and the electrode surface. Our results show that nanocomposite films exhibit five‐fold increase in current response to glucose compared with analogous supramolecular AuNP‐free films. The introduction of colloidal gold promotes drastic mesostructural changes in the film, which in turn leads to a rigid, amorphous interfacial architecture where nanoparticles, redox centers, and GOx remain in close proximity, thus improving the electron‐transfer process.     

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.     

Dendrimer-encapsulated Pt nanoparticles on mesoporous silica for glucose detection

A hybrid system of mesoporous silica (MS) particle incorporated with poly(amidoamine) dendrimer-encapsulated platinum nanoparticles (Pt-DENs) was constructed in a neutral aqueous solution through electrostatic interaction. The MS/Pt-DENs composite particles immobilized with glucose oxidase (GOx) were used to modify a glassy carbon electrode for detecting the electrocatalytic response to the reduction of glucose. Pt-DENs can improve the conductivity of MS and enhance the electron transfer between redox centers in enzymes and electrode surfaces. The structure of composite particles and the performance of MS/Pt-DEN-modified electrodes were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, N₂ sorption characterization method, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and amperometric measurements. The MS/Pt-DENs/GOx-modified electrodes, which had a fast response of GOx less than 3?s, could be used for the determination of glucose ranging from 0.02 to 10?mM. The detection limits were 4???M at signal-to-noise ratio of 3.

Direct Electrochemistry and Electrocatalysis Behaviors of Glucose Oxidase Based on Hyaluronic Acid-Carbon Nanotubes-Ionic Liquid Composite Film

Multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were dispersed in the ionic liquid [BMIM][BF₄] to form a uniform black suspension. Based on it, a novel glucose oxidase (GOx)‐hyaluronic (HA)‐[BMIM][BF₄]‐MWNTs/GCE modified electrode was fabricated. UV‐vis spectroscopy confirmed that GOx immobilized in the composite film retained its native structure. The experimental results of EIS indicated MWNTs, [BMIM][BF₄] and HA were successfully immobilized on the surface of GCE and [BMIM][BF₄]‐MWNTs could obviously improve the diffusion of ferricyanide toward the electrode surface. The experimental results of CV showed that a pair of well‐defined and quasi‐reversible peaks of GOx at the modified electrode was exhibited, and the redox reaction of GOx at the modified electrode was surface‐confined and quasi‐reversible electrochemical process. The average surface coverage of GOx and the apparent Michaelis‐Menten constant were 8.5×10⁻⁹ mol/cm² and 9.8 mmol/L, respectively. The cathodic peak current of GOx and the glucose concentration showed linear relationship in the range from 0.1 to 2.0 mmol/L with a detection limit of 0.03 mmol/L (S/N=3). As a result, the method presented here could be easily extended to immobilize and obtain the direct electrochemistry of other redox enzymes or proteins.     

Glucose Biosensors Based on Electrodes Modified with Ferrocene Derivatives Intercalated into Mg/Al Layered Double Hydroxides

Two amperometric biosensors based on glassy carbon electrodes (GC) modified with Mg/Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) containing ferrocene‐carboxylate (Fc? CO₂H) or ferrocene‐sulfonate (Fc? SO₃H), as interlayer anions, and glucose oxidase (GOx) are presented. Amperometric detection of glucose involves the electrochemical oxidation of H₂O₂ mediated by the ferrocene derivative. Optimization of the biosensors construction and of the operative conditions was investigated and is discussed herein. The performances of the two biosensors were evaluated by chronoamperometry, working at low anodic potentials (+0.400 V for Fc? CO₂H and +0.500 V for Fc? SO₃H vs. SCE). The linearity extended up to 1.5 mM and 10.0 mM in batch and in flow conditions, respectively, for both biosensors, whereas the sensitivity was higher for the one based on Fc? CO₂H (4.8±0.3 versus 2.0±0.3 μA mM^?1cm^?2 in batch mode, and 63.9±0.4 versus 25.8±0.4 μA mM^?1cm^?2 in flow mode). The biosensors display rapid response time (less than 20 s), good reproducibility, as well as good operational stability. Glucose can be accurately determined in the presence of the most common interferences that coexist in blood serum if an oxidative membrane containing nanoparticles of MnO₂ is applied on the biosensors' surface.     

Evaluation of Enzymatic Kinetics of GOx‐based Electrodes by Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy at Redox Competition Mode

Glucose oxidase (GOx) is an enzyme, which is used for the development of enzymatic biofuel cells. Therefore in this research redox competition mode of scanning electrochemical microscopy (RC‐SECM) was applied for the investigation of glucose oxidase (GOx) catalyzed reaction kinetics. The GOx was immobilized by glutaraldehyde on substrates of different electrical conductivity: (i) gold covered glass was used as conducting substrate and (ii) plastic poly(methyl methacrylate) was used as non‐conducting substrate. Current vs distance dependencies were registered by SECM at different concentrations of glucose in the absence of redox mediator. The potential of −750 mV vs Ag/AgCl(3 M KCl) was applied to the microelectrode (ME), which was used as a probe in SECM, in order to register oxygen reduction current. Consumption of oxygen by the GOx based layer was evaluated according to principles determined by Michaelis‐Menten kinetics. Apparent Michaelis constants K _{M (app.)} were calculated from the dependencies of current vs glucose concentration. In both these cases the K _{M (app.)} value increased when the distance between ME and enzyme modified surface was increasing from 10 to 30 μm, while the K _{M (app.)} value decreased by increasing the distance from 30 to 60 μm.     

Development of an Amperometric Immunosensor for the Quantification of Staphylococcus aureus Using Self‐Assembled Monolayer‐Modified Electrodes as Immobilization Platforms

Amperometric immunosensors for the detection and quantification of S. aureus using MPA self‐assembled monolayer modified electrodes for the immobilization of the immunoreagents are reported. Two different immunosensor configurations were compared. A competitive mode, in which protein A‐bearing S. aureus cells and antiRbIgG labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) compete for the binding sites of RbIgG immobilized onto the 3‐mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) modified electrode, was evaluated. Moreover, a sandwich configuration in which S. aureus cells were immobilized onto the MPA SAM, and RbIgG and antiRbIgG labeled with HRP were further linked to the electrode surface, was also tested. In both cases, TTF was used as the redox mediator of the HRP reaction with H₂O₂, and it was co‐immobilized onto the MPA‐modified gold electrode. After optimization of the working variables for both configurations, the analytical performance of the amperometric measurements carried out at 0.00 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) showed that the competitive immunosensor exhibited a lower limit of detection (1.6×10⁵ S. aureus cells mL^?1), as well as a better repeatability and reproducibility of the measurements.     

An Amperometric Glucose Biosensor Based on Poly (Pyrrole‐2‐Carboxylic Acid)/Glucose Oxidase Biocomposite

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.     

Enhanced amperometric response of a glucose oxidase and horseradish peroxidase based bienzyme glucose biosensor modified with a film of polymerized toluidine blue containing reduced graphene oxide

Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) was used to construct a bienzyme biosensor containing horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and glucose oxidase (GOx). A poly(toluidine blue) (pTB) film containing RGO acted as both enzyme immobilization matrix and electron transfer mediator. The bienzyme biosensor was characterized by electrochemical techniques and displays a highly sensitive amperometric response to glucose and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) at a potential as low as −0.1 V (vs. SCE). It is shown that use of RGO causes a strong enhancement on the amperometric responses. H₂O₂ formed by the action of GOx in the presence of oxygen can be further reduced by HRP in the pTB film contacting the RGO modified electrode. In the absence of oxygen, glucose oxidation proceeds by another mechanism in which electron transfer occurs from GOx to the electrode and with pTB acting as the mediator. Amperometric responses to glucose and H₂O₂ follow Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The experimental conditions were optimized, and under these conditions glucose can be determined in the 80 μM to 3.0 mM range with a detection limit of 50 μM. H₂O₂, in turn, can be quantified in up to 30.0 μM concentration with a detection limit of 0.2 μM. The bienzyme biosensor is reproducible, repeatable and stable. Finally, it has been successfully applied to the determination of glucose in plasma samples.
