Wei Y, Li Y, Qu Y, Xiao F, Shi G, Jin L: A novel biosensor based on photoelectro-synergistic catalysis for flow-injection analysis system/amperometric detection of organophosphorous pesticides. Anal Chim Acta. 2009 Jun 8;643(1-2):13-8. Epub 2009 Apr 5. In this study, a highly sensitive amperometric biosensor based on photoelectro-synergistic catalysis for detecting organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) in flow-injection analysis (FIA) system has been developed. The acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE) was immobilized by adsorption into the nanostructured PbO2/TiO2/Ti, which also acted as the working electrode. This strategy was found to catalyze the oxidative reaction of thiocholine effectively, make the AChE/PbO2/TiO2/Ti biosensor detect the substrate at 0.30 V (vs. SCE), hundreds milli-volts lower than others reported. PbO2/TiO2/Ti and TiO2/Ti electrodes were prepared and investigated with atomic force microscope (AFM). Factors influencing the performance were optimized. The resulting flow system offered a fast, sensitive, and stable response. A value of 1.34 mM for the apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (K (M)(app)) was obtained. A wide linear inhibition response for trichlorfon was observed in the range of 0.01-20 microM with the detection limit of 0.1 nM. The results using this biosensor agreed very well with chromatographic method and we also examined the real samples successfully in this work. |
