Abstract
The coupling compound of Biotin (Vitamin H) and redox molecule ferrocene throughcovalent bonding was studied. Synthesis and structure identification of Biotinylated 1 - (- 2-aminoethyl) ferrocene were performed by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS. The ultimate goal of thispaper is to develop derivatives of ferroceneservingas an electrochemical probe that wouldenhance the performance of immunosensor.An immunosensor based on polypyrrole-streptavidinlayer as platform for immobilization of biotinylatedferrocene and antibodies was developed. Themeasurement of redox signal of ferrocene was analyzed by differential pulse voltammetry(DPV) method and underlined a variation of redox properties upon the antigen interaction. Theintroduction of the redox biotinylatedferrocene into streptavidin-polypyrrole layer affords a goodsensitivity of the biosensor with a detection limit of 0.16 pg.mL-1.
