An enzyme electrode was developed using the enzyme sulfite oxidase (EC1.8.3.1) immobilized onto pig intestine. Hydrogen peroxide produced was monitored amperometrically. All experimental parameters such as pH, temperature, buffer constituent concentration, were thoroughly investigated and optimized when appropriate. The response to sulfite concentration was linear in the range 5.2´...

Membrane-bound cytochrome c oxidase was attached to an electrode via a His-tag linker and studied by surface enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy, demonstrating intact redox site structures and electron transfer between the electrode and the immobilized enzyme.

Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a prominent marker for the prostate carcinoma. It is found in human blood in free (f-PSA) and complex forms. These two forms together are called total PSA (t-PSA). Estimation of both forms is essential to predict malignancy. In this study we report a unique and effective technique of electrochemical detection of fPSA using magnetic beads on a three-electrode s...

• Adsorbed-enzyme-mediated electrochemical processes are investigated via simulations. Potential dependent Michaelis constants explained. Four classes of voltammograms introduced to help understand current responses. Porous electrodes can create enhanced effective surface coverage and sensing ability. We present theory for electrolysis at electrode surfaces modified by a layer electroactive enz...

A novel third-generation hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) biosensor was developed by immobilizing horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on a biocompatible attapulgite (ATP) modified glassy carbon (GC) electrode. The ATP could provide a biocompatible microenvironment for enzyme molecules, greatly amplify the coverage of HRP molecules on the electrode surface, and most importantly facilitate the direct electr...

This article is a report on a novel and high-stability biosensor with minor interference effects of surface modification of working electrode with β-Ga2O3 nanowires (NWs) on choline oxidase biosensor were investigated in an electrochemical detection system. β-Ga2O3 NWs were materialized on the silicon substrate in a catalyst-free growth mechanism. The β-Ga2O<sub...

A flow injection amperometric biosensor for the determination of organophosphate nerve agents was developed. The biosensor incorporated an immobilized enzyme reactor that contains the enzyme organophosphorus hydrolase covalently immobilized on activated aminopropyl controlled pore glass beads and an electrochemical flow-through detector containing carbon paste working electrode, a silver/silver...

Electrochemical sensors are widely used for rapid and accurate measurement of blood glucose and can be adapted for detection of a wide variety of analytes. Electrochemical sensors operate by transducing a biological recognition event into a useful electrical signal. Signal transduction occurs by coupling the activity of a redox enzyme to an amperometric electrode. Sensor specificity is either a...

An electrochemical immunosensor based on screen-printed gold working electrode with onboard carbon counter and silver-silver chloride pseudo-reference electrode for Salmonella typhimurium detection is described in this paper. Monoclonal anti-S. typhimurium antibody was immobilized using physical and covalent immobilization via amine coupling of carboxymethyldextran on the surface of the gold wo...
