Abstract
The pH response of an a-ISFET with xanthine oxidase immobilized on a ca. 20-μm thick poly(vinyl butyral) membrane over the gate insulator, is used to detect the uric acid produced by enzyme-catalyzed oxidation of hypoxanthine. The pH sensitivity between pH 5.0 and 10.0 is ca 48 mV/pH at 32°C in 10 mM phosphate buffer. The change in the output gate voltage 1 min after sample injection, is linearly related to the logarithm of the hypoxanthine concentration in the range 0.02–0.1 mM. The optimum buffer pH is 7.5. The system can be used for 2 weeks with 30% loss of enzymatic activity.
