Palladium hexacyanoferrate hydrogel as novel and simple enzyme immobilization matrix for amperometric biosensors

Abstract: An amperometric glucose biosensor with glucose oxidase immobilized into palladium hexacyanoferrate hydrogel has been prepared and evaluated. The sensor was based on a two-layer configuration, with biocatalytic and electrocatalytic layers separately deposited onto the electrode. To reduce the overpotential for reduction of hydrogen peroxide liberated in the enzyme catalyzed oxidation of glucose, an inner thin layer of nickel hexacyanoferrate electrodeposited onto the surface of graphite electrode was used as an electrocatalyst. As an outer layer the hydrogel of palladium hexacyanoferrate with entrapped glucose oxidase was used. Under optimal operating conditions (pH = 5.0 and E = - 0.075 V vs. calomel (3.0 M KCl) reference electrode) sensor showed high sensitivity to glucose (0.3 - 1.0 mA/mM) and a response time of less than 30 s. The linear response to glucose was obtained in the concentration range between 0.05 and 1.0 mM in batch analysis mode, and 0 - 7.0 mM in FIA. During the 32-days testing period no significant decrease in the sensor sensitivity was observed. The sensor was applied for the determination of glucose concentration in fruit juice and yoghurt drink, and the results obtained showed good correlation with results obtained by reference spectrophotometric enzyme method.
