    Abstract:
    Inspired by the photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties of TiO2 nanotubes arrays (TNA) and their application as a super vessel for immobilizing biomolecules, we constructed an inhibition-effect PEC biosensor for determination of asulam based on the in-situ generation of CdS quantum dots (QDs) on TNA using an enzymatic reaction. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme was covalently assembled on the inner-wall of TNAs, which exhibited good electrochemical and catalytic properties. In the mixture solution containing H2O2, CdY and S2O32-, HRP enzyme in TNAs catalyzed H2O2 reduce S2O32- to S2-. The generated S2- reacted with CdY to form CdS QDs in situ on the TNAs, improving the PEC performance of TNA under visible light irradiation. The photocurrent would decrease after addition of asulam due to its inhibitory effect towards HRP enzyme activity. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the constructed PEC TNA/HRP biosensor exhibited a satisfying linear range (0.02-2.0 ng mL-1), low limit of detection (4.1 pg mL-1) and good selectivity towards asulam determination, and has been successfully applied for the analysis of real environmental water samples with good accuracy of the recoveries ranged from 90% to 114%.
