T1 - Ferroceneboronic acid-based amperometric biosensor for glycated hemoglobin N2 - An amperometric biosensor for the determination of glycated hemoglobin in human whole blood is proposed. The principle is based on the electrochemical measurement of ferroceneboronic acid (FcBA) that has been specifically bound to the glycated N-terminus. Hemoglobin is immobilized on a zirconium dioxide nanoparticle modified pyrolytic graphite electrode (PGE) in the presence of didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB). The incubation of this sensor in FcBA solution leads to the formation of an FcBA-modified surface due to the affinity interaction between boronate and the glycated sites of the hemoglobin. The binding of FcBA results in well-defined redox peaks with an E-0' of 0.299 V versus Ag/AgCl (1 M KCl). The square wave voltammetric response of the bound FcBA reflects the amount of glycated hemoglobin at the surface. This signal increases linearily with the degree of glycated hemoglobin from 6.8 to 14.0% of total immobilized hemoglobin. The scheme was applied to the determination of the fraction of glycated hemoglobin in whole blood samples.

T1 - Redox properties and catalytic activity of surface-bound human sulfite oxidase studied by a combined surface enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopic and electrochemical approach N2 - Human sulfite oxidase (hSO) was immobilised on SAM-coated silver electrodes under preservation of the native heme pocket structure of the cytochrome b5 (Cyt b5) domain and the functionality of the enzyme. The redox properties and catalytic activity of the entire enzyme were studied by surface enhanced resonance Raman (SERR) spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry (CV) and compared to the isolated heme domain when possible. It is shown that heterogeneous electron transfer and catalytic activity of hSO sensitively depend on the local environment of the enzyme. Increasing the ionic strength of the buffer solution leads to an increase of the heterogeneous electron transfer rate from 17 s(-1) to 440 s(- 1) for hSO as determined by SERR spectroscopy. CV measurements demonstrate an increase of the apparent turnover rate for the immobilised hSO from 0.85 s(-1) in 100 mM buffer to 5.26 s(-1) in 750 mM buffer. We suggest that both effects originate from the increased mobility of the surface-bound enzyme with increasing ionic strength. In agreement with surface potential calculations we propose that at high ionic strength the enzyme is immobilised via the dimerisation domain to the SAM surface. The flexible loop region connecting the Moco and the Cyt b5 domain allows alternating contact with the Moco interaction site and the SAM surface, thereby promoting the sequential intramolecular and heterogeneous electron transfer from Moco via Cyt b5 to the electrode. At lower ionic strength, the contact time of the Cyt b5 domain with the SAM surface is longer, corresponding to a slower overall electron transfer process.

T1 - Cytochrome P450 biosensors : a review N2 - Cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a large family of enzymes containing heme as the active site. Since their discovery and the elucidation of their structure, they have attracted the interest of scientist for many years, particularly due to their catalytic abilities. Since the late 1970s attempts have concentrated on the construction and development of electrochemical sensors. Although sensors based on mediated electron transfer have also been constructed, the direct electron transfer approach has attracted most of the interest. This has enabled the investigation of the electrochemical properties of the various isoforms of CYP. Furthermore, CYP utilized to construct biosensors for the determination of substrates important in environmental monitoring, pharmaceutical industry and clinical practice. (c) 2004 Elsevier B. V.

The reaction of haemoglobin (Hb) with typical mediators, e.g., ferricyanide, can be quantified by measuring the produced ferrocyanide which is equivalent to the Hb concentration. Immobilization of the mediator within the electrode body allows reagentless electrochemical measuring of Hb. On the other hand, entrapment of the protein within layers of polyclectrolytes, lipids, nanoparticles of clay or gold leads to a fast heterogeneous electron exchange of the partially denatured Hb.

T1 - Affinity interaction betwen phenylboronic acid-carrying self-assembled monolayers and FAD or HRP N2 - A method is provided for the recognition of glycated molecules based on their binding affinities to boronate- carrying monolayers. The affinity interaction of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) with phenylboronic acid monolayers on gold was investigated by using voltammetric and microgravimetric methods. Conjugates of 3-aminopherrylboronic acid and 3,3'-dithiodipropionic acid di(N-hydroxysuccinimide ester) or 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid were prepared and self-assembled on gold surfaces to generate monolayers. FAD is bound to this modified sur-face and recognized by a pair of redox peaks with a formal potential of -0.433 V in a 0.1 m phosphate buffer solution, pH 6.5. Upon addition of a sugar to the buffer, the bound FAD could be replaced, indicating that the binding is reversible. Voltammetric, mass measurements, and photometric activity assays show that the HRP can also be bound to the interface. This binding is reversible, and HRP can be replaced by sorbitol or removed in acidic solution. The effects of pH, incubation time, and concentration of H2O2 were studied by comparing the catalytic reduction of H2O2 in the presence of the electron-donor thionine. The catalytic current of the HRP-loaded electrode was proportional to HRP concentrations in the incubation solution in the range between 5 mu g mL(-1) and 0.4 mg mL(-1) with a linear slope of 3.34 mu A mL mg(-1) and a correlation coefficient of 0.9945 Y1 - 2005 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Wollenberger, Ursula A1 - Bistolas, Nikitas A1 - Jung, Christiane A1 - Shumyantseva, V.

A1 - Wollenberger, Ursula T1 - Spectroelectrochemistry of cytochrome P450cam N2 - The spectroelectrochemistry of camphor-bound cytochrome P450cam (P450cam) using gold electrodes is described. The electrodes were modified with either 4,4'-dithiodipyridin or sodium dithionite. Electrolysis of P450cam was carried out when the enzyme was in solution, while at the same time UV visible absorption spectra were recorded. Reversible oxidation and reduction could be observed with both 4,4'-dithiodipyridin and dithionite modified electrodes. A formal potential (E-0') of -373 mV vs Ag/AgCl 1 M KCl was determined. The spectra of P450cam complexed with either carbon monoxide or metyrapone, both being inhibitors of P450 catalysis, clearly indicated that the protein retained its native state in the electrochemical cell during electrolysis.

A reversible diffusion-controlled process of APPX and PPX was observed at a bare gold electrode. The electrochemical conversion of both compounds at modified gold electrodes was a quasireversible diffusion-controlled process. The redox potential of immobilized APPX (443 mV) was similar to the potential in solution, while the value of the immobilized PPX was 131 mV higher than in solution. The immobilized mediators were electrocatalytically active in the fungal peroxidase-catalyzed hydrogen peroxide reduction Y1 - 2004 ER -
