  • Title: Development of a carbon nanotube paste electrode osmium polymer-mediated biosensor for determination of glucose in alcoholic beverages.
    Author: Antiochia R, Gorton L.
    Journal: Biosens Bioelectron; 2007 May 15; 22(11):2611-7. PubMed ID: 17175156.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes a new amperometric biosensor for glucose monitoring. The biosensor is based on the activity of glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) and diaphorase (DI) co-immobilized with NAD(+) into a carbon nanotube paste (CNTP) electrode modified with an osmium functionalized polymer. This mediator was demonstrated to shuttle the electron transfer between the immobilized diaphorase and the CNTP electrode, thus, showing a good electrocatalytic activity towards NADH oxidation at potentials around +0.2V versus Ag|AgCl, where interfering reactions are less prone to occur. The biosensor exhibits a detection limit of 10 micromol L(-1), linearity up to 8 x 10(-4) mol L(-1), a sensitivity of 13.4 microA cm(-2)mmol(-1)L(-1), a good reproducibility (R.S.D. 2.1%, n=6) and a stability of about 1 week when stored dry at 4 degrees C. Finally, the proposed biosensor was applied for the determination of glucose in different samples of sweet wine and validated with a commercial spectrophotometric enzymatic kit.
