    Author: Wang R, Zhang J, Hu Y.
    Journal: Bioelectrochemistry; 2011 Apr; 81(1):34-8. PubMed ID: 21334986.
    Abstract:
    This work demonstrates that liquid phase deposition (LPD) technique provides a novel approach to the immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb) in TiO(2) film for studying the direct electron transfer of Hb. Using the LPD process, a hybrid film composed of Hb, TiO(2) and sodium dodecylsulfonate (SDS) is successfully prepared on the electrode surface. The surface morphology of as-deposited Hb/SDS/TiO(2) film shows a flower-like structure. The cyclic voltammetric measurement indicates that the LPD hybrid film facilitates the electron transfer of Hb, which yields a pair of redox peaks prior to the characteristic voltammetric peaks of TiO(2). Due to the electrocatalytic activity of Hb towards H(2)O(2), the Hb/SDS/TiO(2) hybrid LPD film can be utilized as an H(2)O(2) sensor, showing a sensitive response linearly proportional to the concentration of H(2)O(2) in the range of 5.0×10(-7)-4.0×10(-5) mol/L. At the same time, the Hb/SDS/TiO(2) hybrid film preserves the photoelectrochemical activity of TiO(2). The photovoltaic effect on the electrochemical behavior of Hb/SDS/TiO(2) film is observed after long-time UV irradiation on the film, which could improve the calibration sensitivity for H(2)O(2).
