Abstract
In the present work, a simple technique is described for constructing a poly(o-anisidine) (POA)-dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid (DBS)-glucose oxidase (GOx) (POA-DBS-GOx) electrode. The enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx) was immobilized by crosslinking via glutaraldehyde on the POA-DBS film. The POA-DBS films were synthesized electrochemically on platinum substrate. The synthesized films were characterized by using electrochemical technique, conductivity measurement, UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The conductivity of the polymer films was found to be about 7.61 × 10−2 S/cm. The crosslinking of enzyme and the porous morphology of the polymer film lead to good stability and good response time of the enzyme electrode. The stability and lifetime of the POA-DBS-GOx electrode have been studied. It shows very good stability and response for 3–4 weeks at 4°C. The results of this study reveal that a phosphate buffer gives better response than acetate buffer in amperometric measurements.
