Amperometric determination of total phenolic content in wine by laccase immobilized onto silver nanoparticles/zinc oxide nanoparticles modified gold electrode.

A method is described for construction of a highly sensitive amperometric biosensor for measurement of total phenolic compounds in wine by immobilizing laccase covalently onto nanocomposite of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)/zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) electrochemically deposited onto gold (Au) electrode. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were applied for characterization of the surface morphology of the modified electrode, and cyclic voltammetry was used to investigate the electrochemical properties of the proposed electrode toward the oxidation of guaiacol. The linearity between the oxidation current and the guaiacol concentration was obtained in a range of 0.1 to 500μM with a detection limit of 0.05μM (signal-to-noise ratio (S/N)=3) and sensitivity of 0.71μAμM(-1)cm(-2). The electrode showed increased oxidation and reduced reduction current with the deposition of AgNPs/ZnONPs on it. R(CT) values of ZnONPs/Au, AgNPs/ZnONPs/Au, and laccase/AgNPs/ZnONPs/Au electrode were 220, 175, and 380Ω, respectively. The biosensor showed an optimal response within 8s at pH 6.0 (0.1M acetate buffer) and 35°C when operated at 0.22V against Ag/AgCl. Analytical recovery of added guaiacol was 98%. The method showed a good correlation (r=0.99) with the standard spectrophotometric method, with the regression equation being y=1.0053x-3.5541. The biosensor lost 25% of its initial activity after 200 uses over 5months.

Polyphenol biosensor based on laccase immobilized onto silver nanoparticles/multiwalled carbon nanotube/polyaniline gold electrode.

Laccase purified from Ganoderma sp. was immobilized covalently onto electrochemically deposited silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)/carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNT)/polyaniline (PANI) layer on the surface of gold (Au) electrode. A polyphenol biosensor was fabricated using this enzyme electrode (laccase/AgNPs/cMWCNT/PANI/Au electrode) as the working electrode, Ag/AgCl as the reference electrode, and platinum (Pt) wire as the auxiliary electrode connected through a potentiostat. The biosensor showed optimal response at pH 5.5 (0.1 M acetate buffer) and 35°C when operated at a scan rate of 50 mV s(-1). Linear range, response time, and detection limit were 0.1-500 μM, 6 s, and 0.1 μM, respectively. The sensor was employed for the determination of total phenolic content in tea, alcoholic beverages, and pharmaceutical formulations. The enzyme electrode was used 200 times over a period of 4 months when stored at 4°C. The biosensor has an advantage over earlier enzyme sensors in that it has no leakage of enzyme during reuse and is unaffected by the external environment due to the protective PANI microenvironment.

An amperometric biosensor based on laccase immobilized onto MnO2NPs/cMWCNT/PANI modified Au electrode.

A method is described for construction of an amperometric biosensor for detection of phenolic compounds based on covalent immobilization of laccase (Lac) onto manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO(2)NPs) decorated carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNTs)/PANI composite electrodeposited onto a gold (Au) electrode through N-ethyl-N'-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxy succinimide (NHS) chemistry. The modified electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The biosensor showed optimum response at pH 5.5 (0.1M sodium acetate buffer) and 35°C, when operated at 0.3 V vs. Ag/AgCl. Linear range, response time, detection limit were 0.1-10 μM (lower concentration range) and 10-500 μM (higher concentration range), 4s and 0.04 μM, respectively. Biosensor measured total phenolic content in tea leaves extract. The enzyme electrode was used 150 times over a period of 5 months.

Fabrication of polyphenol biosensor based on laccase immobilized on copper nanoparticles/chitosan/multiwalled carbon nanotubes/polyaniline-modified gold electrode.

A high-performance amperometric polyphenol biosensor was developed, based on covalent immobilization of Ganoderma sp. laccase onto copper nanoparticles (CuNP's)/chitosan (CHIT)/carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotube (cMWCNT)/polyaniline (PANI)-modified gold (Au) electrode. The CuNP's and cMWCNT had a synergistic electrocatalytic effect in the matrix of CHIT. The biosensor showed optimum response at pH 6.0 (0.1 M acetate buffer) and 35°C, when operated at 50 mVs(-1). The biosensor exhibited excellent sensitivity (the detection limit was down to 0.156 μM for guaiacol), fast response time (less than 4s) and wide linear range (from 1 to 500 μM). Analytical recovery of added guaiacol was 96.40-98.46%. Within batch and between batch coefficients of variation were <2.6% and <5.3%, respectively. The enzyme electrode was used 300 times over a period of 7 months, when stored at 4°C.
