Abstract

A bead based sandwich enzyme immunoassay coupled to electrochemical detection for ovalbumin has been developed. The enzyme label alkaline phosphatase was used to convert the substrate 4-aminophenyl phosphate to electroactive product 4-aminophenol. The detection was done in a microdrop by continuously monitoring the enzyme turnover with a rotating disk electrode. This reduces dilution of the enzyme product, a key to achieving low detection limits. The assay developed has a detection limit of 0.1 ng ml-1. Assay sensitivity in complex matrices such as food and serum was compared.
