چکیده

An optimum way of immobilizing xanthine oxidase on graphite was found where a redox transformation of the enzyme was observed. The nature of the redox maxima was hypothesized on the basis of the dependence of the half-wave potential (Ep/2) on the pH of the solution. The enzymatic activity of xanthine oxidase adsorbed on two kinds of soot was studied by the oxidation of xanthine. The kinetic and activation parameters of the enzyme reaction were determined.

Design and Fabrication of Glucose/O2 Enzymatic Biofuel Cell

Enzyme-based biofuel cells (EBFCs) are systems that use a variety of organic compounds to produce electricity through oxido-reductase enzymes, such as oxidase or dehydrogenase as biocatalysts immobilized on electrodes. In this study, a single-chamber EBFC consisting of carbon electrodes that operating at ambient temperature in phosphate buffer, pH 7 is reported. The EBFC anode was based on gluc...

Electrochemical xanthine biosensor based on zinc oxide nanoparticles‒ multiwalled carbon nanotubes‒1,4-benzoquinone composite

Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs), multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and 1,4benzoquinone (BQ) dispersed in chitosan (CS) matrix were used to construct a xanthine biosensor. Xanthine oxidase (XOx) was immobilized onto BQ-MWCNTs-ZnO–CS composite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using glutaraldehyde as the crosslinking agent. The parameters of the construction process and the experimenta...

Development of a Sensitive Electrochemical Enzymatic Reaction-Based Cholesterol Biosensor Using Nano-Sized Carbon Interdigitated Electrodes Decorated with Gold Nanoparticles

We developed a versatile and highly sensitive biosensor platform. The platform is based on electrochemical-enzymatic redox cycling induced by selective enzyme immobilization on nano-sized carbon interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) decorated with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Without resorting to sophisticated nanofabrication technologies, we used batch wafer-level carbon microelectromechanical syste...

Electrochemical DNA-sensor for evaluation of total antioxidant capacity of flavours and flavoured waters using superoxide radical damage.

In this paper, a biosensor based on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was used for the evaluation of the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of flavours and flavoured waters. This biosensor was constructed by immobilising purine bases, guanine and adenine, on a GCE. Square wave voltammetry (SWV) was selected for the development of this methodology. Damage caused by the reactive oxygen species (ROS),...

Electrochemical characterization of the pyranose 2-oxidase variant N593C shows a complete loss of the oxidase function with full preservation of substrate (dehydrogenase) activity† †Electronic supplementary information (ESI) available. See DOI: 10.1039/c6cp06009a Click here for additional data file.

This study presents the first electrochemical characterization of the pyranose oxidase (POx) variant N593C (herein called POx-C), which is considered a promising candidate for future glucose-sensing applications. The resulting cyclic voltammograms obtained in the presence of various concentrations of glucose and mediator (1,4-benzoquinone, BQ), as well as the control experiments by addition of ...
