A catalytic oxidative current was generated when a sample containing sulfite was pumped over the carbon screen-printed electrode modified with osmium redox polymer wired sulfite oxidase. A stationary value was reached after approximately 50 s and a complete measurement lasted no more than 3 min. The electrode polarized at -0.1 V (vs. Ag vertical bar AgCl 1M KCl) permits minimizing the influence of interfering substances, since these compounds can be unspecific oxidized at higher potentials. Because of the good stability of the protein film on the electrode surface, a well functioning biosensor-flow system was possible to construct. The working stability and reproducibility were further enhanced by the addition of bovine serum albumin generating a more long-term stable and biocompatible protein environment. The optimized biosensor showed a stable signal for more than a week of operation and a coefficient of variation of 4.8\% for 12 successive measurements. The lower limit of detection of the sensor was 0.5 mu M sulfite and the response was linear until 100 mu M. The high sensitivity permitted a 1:500 dilution of wine samples. The immobilization procedure and the operational conditions granted minimized interferences. Additionally, repeating the immobilization procedure to form several layers of wired SO further increased the sensitivity of such a sensor. Finally. the applicability of the developed sulfite biosensor was tested on real samples, such as white and red wines.}, language = {en} } @article{FrascavonGrabergFengetal.2010, author = {Frasca, Stefano and von Graberg, Till and Feng, Jiu-Ju and Thomas, Arne and Smarsly, Bernd M. and Weidinger, Inez M. and Scheller, Frieder W. and Hildebrandt, Peter and Wollenberger, Ursula}, title = {Mesoporous indium tin oxide as a novel platform for bioelectronics}, issn = {1867-3880}, doi = {10.1002/cctc.201000047}, year = {2010}, abstract = {Stable immobilization and reversible electrochemistry of cytochrome c in a tranparent indium tin oxide film with a well-defined mesoporosity (mpITO) is demonstrated. the transparency and good conductivity, in combination with the large surface area of mpITO, allow the incorporation of a high amount of elelctroactive biomolecules and their electrochemical and spectroscopic investigation.
