This paper presents a mathematical model of a potentiometric biosensor based on a potentiometric electrode covered with an
enzyme membrane. The model is based on the reaction–diffusion equations containing a non-linear term related to theMichaelis–Menten
kinetics of the enzymatic reaction. Using computer simulation the influence of the thickness of the enzyme membrane on the
biosensor response was investigated. The digital simulation was performed using the finite difference technique. Results of
the numerical simulation were compared with known analytical solutions.

This paper presents a sensor system based on a combination of an amperometric biosensor acting in batch as well as flow injection analysis with the chemometric data analysis of biosensor outputs. The multivariate calibration of the biosensor signal was performed using artificial neural networks. Large amounts of biosensor calibration as well as test data were synthesized using computer simulation. Mathematical and corresponding numerical models of amperometric biosensors have been built to simulate the biosensor response to mixtures of compounds. The mathematical model is based on diffusion equations containing a non-linear term related to Michaelis–Menten kinetics of the enzymatic reaction. The principal component analysis was applied for an optimization of calibration data. Artificial neural networks were used to discriminate compounds of mixtures and to estimate the concentration of each compound. The proposed approach showed prediction of each component with recoveries greater that 99% in flow injection as well as in batch analysis when the biosensor response is under diffusion control. 相似文献
A mathematical model of amperometric biosensors has been developed. The model is based on non-stationary diffusion equations containing a non-linear term related to Michaelis–Menten kinetic of the enzymatic reaction. Using digital simulation, the influence of the substrate concentration as well as maximal enzymatic rate on the biosensor response was investigated. The digital simulation was carried out using the finite difference technique. The model describes the biosensor action in batch and flow injection regimes. 相似文献
The plate-gap model of porous enzyme doped electrode has been proposed and analyzed. It was suggested that reaction diffusion conditions in pores of bulk electrode resemble particular conditions in thin gap between parallel conducting plates. The model is based on the diffusion equations containing a nonlinear term related to the Michaelis–Menten kinetic of the enzymatic reaction inside gap. Steady state current was calculated for the wide range of given parameters and substrate concentrations. All dependences of current on substrate concentration were approximated by hyperbolas in order to obtain “apparent” parameters (maximal currents and apparent Michaelis constants) of modelled biosensors. Simple approximate relationships between given and apparent parameters were derived. The applicability of theoretical plate-gap model was tested for the case of carbon paste electrodes which were doped with PQQ – dependent glucose dehydrogenase. It was found, that soluble glucose dehydrogenase based biosensors exhibit characteristic features of the theoretical plate-gap biosensors. 相似文献
When components of a metal–organic framework (MOF) and a crystal growth modulator diffuse through a gel medium, they can form arrays of regularly‐spaced precipitation bands containing MOF crystals of different morphologies. With time, slow variations in the local concentrations of the growth modulator cause the crystals to change their shapes, ultimately resulting in unusual concave microcrystallites not available via solution‐based methods. The reaction–diffusion and periodic precipitation phenomena 1) extend to various types of MOFs and also MOPs (metal–organic polyhedra), and 2) can be multiplexed to realize within one gel multiple growth conditions, in effect leading to various crystalline phases or polycrystalline formations. 相似文献
A wet stamping method to precisely control concentrations of enzymes and inhibitors in place and time inside layered gels is reported. By combining enzymatic reactions such as autocatalysis and inhibition with spatial delivery of components through soft lithographic techniques, a biochemical reaction network capable of recognizing the spatial distribution of an enzyme was constructed. The experimental method can be used to assess fundamental principles of spatiotemporal order formation in chemical reaction networks. 相似文献
This paper presents a two-dimensional-in-space mathematical model of amperometric biosensors with perforated and selective
membranes. The model is based on the diffusion equations containing a non-linear term of the Michaelis–Menten enzymatic reaction.
Using numerical simulation of the biosensors action, the influence of the geometry of the perforated membrane on the biosensor
response was investigated. The numerical simulation was carried out using finite-difference technique. The calculations demonstrated
non-linear and non-monotonous change of the biosensor steady-state current at various degree of the surface of the perforated
membrane covering. The non-monotonous behaviour of the biosensor response was also observed when changing the thickness of
the perforated membrane. 相似文献
Eleven glucose biosensors were prepared by cross-linking, entrapment, and layer-by-layer assembly to investigate the influence of these immobilization methods on performance. The effects of separate nanozeolites combined with magnetic nanoparticles and multiwalled carbon nanotubes in the enzyme composition on the performance of glucose biosensors were compared. Cyclic voltammetric studies were carried out on the biosensors. Acrylonitrile copolymer/nanozeolite/carbon nanotube and acrylonitrile copolymer/nanozeolite/magnetic nanoparticle electrodes prepared by a cross-linking method showed the highest electroactivity. These results indicated that a synergistic effect occurred when multiwalled carbon nanotubes, magnetic nanoparticles, and nanozeolites were combined that greatly improved the electron transfer ability of the sensors. Amperometric measurements by the glucose oxidase electrodes were obtained that showed that the acrylonitrile copolymer/nanozeolite/carbon nanotube electrode was the most sensitive (10.959 microamperes per millimolar). The lowest detection limit for this biosensor was 0.02 millimolar glucose, with a linear dynamic range up to 3 millimolar. The response after thirty days was 81 percent of the initial current. 相似文献
Eosin, a photosensitizer dye that can exist in multiple oxidation states, has been shown to initiate visible‐light photopolymerizations of acrylates in open air when used in combination with tertiary amines. The exact mechanism behind this reactivity with micromolar concentrations of eosin in aqueous monomer solutions initially containing millimolar concentrations of oxygen has not been conclusively established, although pathways for regeneration of eosin in the presence of oxygen certainly play a role. In this work, a reaction–diffusion model incorporating a peroxy‐mediated eosin‐regeneration mechanism is built to explore the effects of oxygen diffusing into the system as the light‐activated reaction proceeds. An oxygen concentration‐dependent flux boundary condition is used to model the continuous replenishment of oxygen at the surface open to air as it is consumed by reaction. The model predicts the formation of a free radical concentration front that initially forms closer to the open surface and gradually moves toward the closed surface, with polymer film thickness increasing and the time required for polymerization to begin decreasing as the initial eosin concentration is increased. These results suggest that oxygen's dual role as both a free radical inhibitor and a precursor of the oxidizing species required for regeneration of eosin brings about interesting spatial variations when the reaction is carried out in a thin film geometry that is exposed to open air. In this case, an assumption of a well‐mixed system is not appropriate and the kinetics of the reaction and conversion as a function of position are likely to depend on the geometry of the system.
Two different self‐contained ethanol amperometric biosensors incorporating layered [Ru(phend)2bpy]2+‐intercalated zirconium phosphate (ZrP) as the mediator as well as yeast‐alcohol dehydrogenase (y‐ADH) and its cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) were constructed to improve upon a design previously reported where only this mediator was immobilized in the surface of a modified electrode. In the first biosensor, a [Ru(phend)2bpy]2+‐intercalated ZrP modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) was improved by immobilizing in its surface both y‐ADH and NAD+ using quaternized Nafion membrane. In the second biosensor, a glassy carbon electrode was modified with [Ru(phend)2bpy]2+‐intercalated ZrP, y‐ADH, and NAD+ using Nafion as the holding matrix. Calibration plots for ethanol sensing were constructed in the presence and absence of ZrP. In the absence of ZrP in the surface of the modified glassy carbon electrode, leaching of ADH was observed as detected by UV‐vis spectrophotometry. Ethanol sensing was also tested in the presence and absence of ascorbate to measure the selectivity of the sensor for ethanol. These two ethanol biosensors were compared to a previously reported one where the y‐ADH and the NAD+ were in solution, not immobilized. 相似文献
A reaction–diffusion system describing the electrolyte diode is investigated. This consists of a chemically crosslinked polyvinylalcohol (PVA) hydrogel cylinder in which a pH gradient is provided by having an acid and a base maintained at constant concentrations in reservoirs at each end of the one-dimensional reactor. A potential difference of a given strength is also applied across the gel cylinder. Previous experimental studies of the current–voltage characteristics (CVC) have shown two distinct cases, depending on whether a positive or negative potential difference was applied. The slopes of the linear current–voltage response curve are substantially different in the two cases, that in the 'forward' case being typically several orders of magnitude greater than that in the 'backward' case. Thus the system behaves like a semiconductor diode. The stationary concentration distribution for the different ions is described by a system of reaction–diffusion equations involving migration caused by the electric field. An approximate solution of these equations, using a simplified model, is presented and compared with results obtained by solving the full system numerically. The concentration profiles obtained from the numerical solution confirm the validity of the simplified model. 相似文献

We got dependability curves for diffusion and reaction rates and offered possible method to localize values of diffusion and reaction rate constants precisely enough.AMS subject classification: 35K57, 65M06 相似文献
Carbon electrodes (glassy carbon, GC, screen‐printed carbon, SPC, and carbon fiber, CF) were used as substrate transducers to prepare glucose biosensors of different sizes and geometries, based on iron‐ruthenium hexacyanoferrate as H2O2 reduction mediator and glucose oxidase immobilized in a poly(1,2‐phenylenediamine) membrane. Their response behavior under hydrodynamic amperometric conditions at an operating potential of ?0.02 V vs. Ag/AgCl was studied and compared. While the GC and SPC based conventional size biosensors showed enzymatic catalysis controlled current response with nonlinear concentration dependence, the CF based micro‐biosensor exhibited, due to diffusion‐controlled current response, extended linear range calibration curves with relatively lower sensitivity and longer response times. Several preparation parameters responsible for the improvement of biosensor performance were also investigated. 相似文献
Electrochemically induced free radical polymerization was employed for the fabrication of amperometric glucose biosensors. Based on the electrochemical reduction of persulfate anion, an ultrathin poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogel coating was generated on both the bare and glucose oxidase (GOD) crosslinked platinum electrodes in a neutral phosphate buffer solution under a low ionic strength condition. This electrosynthetic approach offers a flexible and controllable way to prepare functional coatings for biosensors under a wide range of highly biocompatible conditions, significantly different from other electropolymerization technologies that usually cause the enzyme deactivation. Negatively charged PAA hydrogel coating not only results in a biosensor with good permselectivity and long‐term stability, but also remarkably enhances its sensitivity by improving the oxygen recycle supply and the enzyme activity. Combined with a simple drop‐evaporation procedure to control the GOD loading, the present method offers a versatile and biocompatible way for fabricating highly sensitive biosensor. 相似文献
Abstract Dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) was electrochemically deposited onto the surface of glassy carbon and platinum electrodes to form a permselective film. Cyclic voltammetry of the DCPIP coated electrode exhibited a reversible oxidation/reduction current at +0.14 V, behavior similar to monomeric DCPIP. However, such an electrode did not mediate glucose oxidase in the presence of β-D-glucose. For operation at +0.7 V vs Ag/AgCl, the DCPIP electrodeposited film behaved like a permselective membrane and virtually eliminated oxidative interference currents resulting from 0.2 mM acetaminophen, uric acid and glutathione. For ascorbic acid, interfering current due to 0.2 mM ascorbate was decreased by 80%. Improvement of the selectivity due to ascorbic acid was achieved using an electrodeposited film prepared from a mixture of DCPIP with diaminobenzene or resorcinol. 相似文献
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have garnered substantial interest as platforms for site‐isolated catalysis. Efficient diffusion of small‐molecule substrates to interstitial lattice‐confined catalyst sites is critical to leveraging unique opportunities of these materials as catalysts. Understanding the rates of substrate diffusion in MOFs is challenging, and few in situ chemical tools are available to evaluate substrate diffusion during interstitial MOF chemistry. Herein, we demonstrate nitrogen atom transfer (NAT) from a lattice‐confined Ru2 nitride to toluene to generate benzylamine. We use the comparison of the intramolecular deuterium kinetic isotope effect (KIE), determined for amination of a partially deuterated substrate, with the intermolecular KIE, determined by competitive amination of a mixture of perdeuterated and undeuterated substrates, to establish the relative rates of substrate diffusion and interstitial chemistry. We anticipate that the developed KIE‐based experiments will contribute to the development of porous materials for group‐transfer catalysis. 相似文献
Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are very promising materials onto which bioactive molecules can be immobilized in the construction of biosensors. Streptavidin was used as a molecular linker to immobilize biotinylated acetylcholinesterase (AChE) on CNTs in a gentle and controllable fashion for pesticide biosensors. Glassy carbon electrodes coated with the CNT-enzyme complex had high affinity for the substrate acetylthiocholine and produced strong peak oxidation currents in electrochemical assays. We also propose a new method, i.e., the use of relative net slope rather than the percentage of inhibition, in the calculation of pesticide concentrations. The biosensors could detect low levels of the pesticide methyl paraoxon. 相似文献
