Protein multilayers, consisting of cytochrome c (cyt c) and poly(aniline sulfonic acid) (PASA), are investigated by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (E-QCM-D). This technique reveals that a four-bilayer assembly has rather rigid properties. A thickness of 16.3 +/- 0.8 nm is calculated with the Sauerbrey equation and is found to be in good agreement with a viscoelastic model. The electroactive amount of cyt c is estimated by the deposited mass under the assumption of 50% coupled water. Temperature-induced stabilization of the multilayer assembly has been investigated in the temperature range between 30 and 45 degrees C. The treatment results in a loss of material and a contraction of the film. The electroactive amount of cyt c also decreases during heating and remains constant after the cooling period. The contraction of the film is accompanied by the enhanced stability of the assembly. In addition, it is found that cyt c and PASA can be assembled at higher temperatures, resulting in the formation of multilayer systems with less dissipation.
Three different sizes of chitosan-capped Au nanoparticles were synthesized and were used to incorporate Agrocybe aegerita peroxygenase (AaeAPO) onto the surface of glassy carbon electrode. The direct electron transfer of AaeAPO was achieved in all films. The highest amount of electroactive enzyme and highest electron transfer rate constant k(s) of AaeAPO were obtained in the film with the smallest size of chitosan-capped Au nanoparticles.
In anaerobic solutions, quasi-reversible oxidation and reduction are obtained with a formal potential of -0.280V vs. Ag/AgCl 1 M KCl in 100 mM (pH 7.0) PBS at scan rate of 1 V s(-1). Bioelectrocatalytic reduction currents can be obtained with the AaeAPO-modified electrode on addition of hydrogen peroxide. This reaction was suppressed when sodium azide, an inhibitor of AaeAPO, was present. Furthermore, the peroxide-dependent conversion of aniline was characterized and it was found that a polymer product via p-aminophenol is formed. And the AaeAPO biosensor was applied to determine aniline and p-aminophenol.
Enzyme electrode for aromatic compounds exploiting the catalytic activities of microperoxidase-11
(2011)
Microperoxidase-11 (MR-11) which has been immobilised in a matrix of chitosan-embedded gold nanoparticles on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode catalyzes the conversion of aromatic substances. This peroxide-dependent catalysis of microperoxidase has been applied in an enzyme electrode for the first time to indicate aromatic compounds such as aniline. 4-fluoroaniline, catechol and p-aminophenol. The electrode signal is generated by the cathodic reduction of the quinone or quinoneimine which is formed in the presence of both MP-II and peroxide from the substrate. The same sensor principle will be extended to aromatic drugs.
The present work contributes to the development of reusable sensing systems with a visual evaluation of the detection process related to an analyte. An electrochemical switchable protein-based optical device was designed with the core part composed of cytochrome c immobilized in a mesoporous indium tin oxide film. A color-developing redox-sensitive dye was used as switchable component of the system. The cytochrome c-catalyzed oxidation of the dye by hydrogen peroxide is spectroscopically investigated. When the dye is co-immobilized with the protein, its redox state is easily controlled by application of an electrical potential at the supporting material. This enables to electrochemically reset the system to the initial state and repetitive signal generation. The implemented reset function of the color forming reaction will make calibration of small test devices possible. The principle can be extended to other color forming redox reactions and to coupled enzyme systems, such as rapid food testing and indication of critical concentrations of metabolites for health care.
The preparation of porous, i.e., high surface area electrodes from transparent conducting oxides, is a valuable goal in materials chemistry as such electrodes can enable further development of optoelectronic, electrocatalytic, or bioelectronic devices. In this work the first tin-rich mesoporous indium tin oxide is prepared using the molecular heterobimetallic single-source precursor, indium tin tris-tert-butoxide, together with an appropriate structure-directing template, yielding materials with high surface areas and tailorable pore size. The resulting mesoporous tin-rich ITO films show a high and durable electrical conductivity and transparency, making them interesting materials for hosting electroactive biomolecules such as proteins. In fact, its unique performance in bioelectronic applications has been demonstrated by immobilization of high amounts of cytochrome c into the mesoporous film which undergo redox processes directly with the conductive electrode material.
We report on the redox behaviour of the microperoxidase-11 (MP-11) which has been electrostatically immobilized in a matrix of chitosan-embedded gold nanoparticles on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode. MP-11 contains a covalently bound heme c as the redox active group that exchanges electrons with the electrode via the gold nanoparticles. Electroactive surface concentration of MP-11 at high scan rate is between 350+/-50 pmol cm(-2), which reflects a multilayer process. The formal potential (E degrees') of MP-11 in the gold nanoparticles-chitosan film was estimated to be -(267.7+/-2.9) mV at pH 7.0. The heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k(s)) starts at 1.21 s(-1) and levels off at 6.45 s(-1) in the scan rate range from 0.1 to 2.0 V s(-1). Oxidation and reduction of MP-11 by hydrogen peroxide and superoxide, respectively have been coupled to the direct electron transfer of MP-11.
