Abstract: | An amperometric glucose biosensor is developed that is based on immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOD) in a composite film of poly(o-aminophenol) (POAP) and carbon nanotubes (CNT), which are electrochemically co-polymerized at a gold (Au) electrode. Because of the high surface per volume ratio and excellent electrical conductivity of CNT, the biosensor based on an Au/POAP/CNT/GOD electrode has lower detection limit (0.01 mM), larger maximum response current (0.24 mA cm(-2)) and higher sensitivity (11.4 mA M(-1) cm(-2)) than the values of the biosensor based on an Au/POAP/GOD electrode. Additionally, the biosensor shows fast response time, large response current, and good anti-interferent ability for ascorbic acid, uric acid and acetaminophen. Good reproducibility and stability of the biosensor are also observed. |
