Abstract
We report a novel strategy to offer a high-performance biosensor platform by fabricating an electrically conductive and adhesive electrode composed of polypyrrole (PPy)/polydopamine (PDA) with enzymes (i.e., glucose oxidase (GOx) or lactate oxidase (LOx)) by one-step electrochemical coating. We focused on electrochemical glucose sensing using PDA/PPy and GOx as a model biosensor. PDA/PPy/GOx biosensor was highly sensitive (28 times higher) compared to the PPy/GOx, which appeared to result from enhanced GOx immobilization and efficient signal transduction by PDA/PPy. A selective layer of polyphenol (PPh) on the PDA/PPy/GOx successfully eliminated possible interference. Finally, the GOx biosensor displayed a good sensitivity of 22.15 μ A mM−1cm-2, a short response time of 5−6s, a linear range up to 5.0mM, and a detection limit of 138μM glucose (R2=0.995). Human blood serum tests accurately measured glucose concentration. PPh-layered PDA/PPy/GOx biosensor maintained exceptional stability over 90 days (93.9%). Furthermore, we fabricated a lactate biosensor (PDA/PPy/LOx) by electrochemical PDA/PPy deposition with LOx and demonstrated the significant improvement of a lactate sensing ability compared to PPy/LOx. This facile fabrication strategy involving PDA/PPy and enzymes will serve as an attractive platform for highly sensitive and stable biosensors, such as urate and bilirubin detection.
