Determination of cholesterol level in blood is important in clinical applications. In this work, modified Au nanowires-electrochemical biosensor based on MEMS micro-fluidic platform is proposed for estimating total cholesterol in blood. This sensor consists of "aligned" Au nanowires as working electrode, platinum counter electrode deposited on the silicon platform and Ag/AgCl (3M KCl) reference electrode. The "aligned" Au nanowires are immobilized with cholesterol oxidase and cholesterol esterase using specific covalent chemistry. Further, Au nanowires promotes better electron transfer between the enzymes and electrodes, because of their large surface to volume ratio, small diffusion time, large electrical conductivity and their aligned nature. The modified Au nanowires showed a stable calibration line and a quasi-linear relationship between cholesterol level and current response in the range of 1-6 mM (in steps of 1 mM over the baseline blood serum). The sensitivity of the modified electrode was found to be about 69 nA/mM with good storage and interference stability. 相似文献

The immobilization technique plays an important role in fabrication of a biosensor. NiO based cholesterol biosensor has been used to study the effect of various immobilization techniques on the biosensing response characteristics. The biosensors were fabricated by immobilizing cholesterol oxidase on NiO thin films by three different immobilization techniques viz. physisorption, cross-linking and covalent binding. The study reveals a strong dependence of biosensing response on corresponding immobilization technique. The biosensor based on immobilization by covalent bonding shows superior response characteristics as compared to others owing to its zero length. The results highlight the significance of immobilization technique for biosensor fabrication. 相似文献

Study of carbon nanotube modified biosensor for monitoring total cholesterol in blood 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A carbon nanotube modified biosensor for monitoring total cholesterol in blood was studied. This sensor consists of a carbon working electrode and a reference electrode screen-printed on a polycarbonate substrate. Cholesterol esterase, cholesterol oxidase, peroxidase and potassium ferrocyanide were immobilized on the screen-printed carbon electrodes. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCN) were added to prompt electron transfer. Experimental results show that the carbon nanotube modified biosensor offers a reliable calibration profile and stable electrochemical properties. 相似文献

Cholesterol determination in body is important in diagnosis of diseases like coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, and obstructive jaundice. This research aims at developing fluorimetric cholesterol biosensors based on self-assembled mesoporous alginate-silica (Algilica) microspheres. For preparing the biosensor, Pt-(II)-octaethylporphine (PtOEP; oxygen sensitive metalloporphyrin) dye has been loaded in the Algilica microspheres using the solvent-mediated precipitation method. Cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) was then covalently conjugated to PtOEP/Algilica microspheres using EDC and NHS reagents. PtOEP dye and enzyme encapsulation, activity and stability were then analyzed. Layer-by-layer self-assembly was finally performed using PAH and PSS polyelectrolytes to minimize leaching of the biosensor components. The prepared biosensor exhibited linearity over a range of 0.77-2.5 mM O(2) (K(SV) : 0.097/mM of O(2) ) obtained using from Stern-Volmer plots. The biosensor response to standard cholesterol displayed a linear analytical range from 1.25 to 10 mM of cholesterol with regression coefficient of 0.996 (1.25-3.75 mM), 0.976 (1.25-6 mM), and 0.959 (1.25-10 mM) and response time of 10 min. Thus, the prepared cholesterol biosensor shows great potential in the diagnosis of hypercholesterolemia. 相似文献

An amperometric cholesterol biosensor based on multiwalled carbon nanotubes and organically modified sol-gel/chitosan hybrid composite film 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A new type of amperometric cholesterol biosensor based on sol-gel chitosan/silica and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) organic-inorganic hybrid composite material was developed. The hybrid composite film was used to immobilize cholesterol oxidase on the surface of Prussian blue-modified glass carbon electrode. Effects of some experimental variables such as enzyme loading, concentration of Triton X-100, pH, temperature, and applied potential on the current response of the biosensor were investigated. Analytical characteristics and dynamic parameters of the biosensors with and without MWCNTs in the hybrid film were compared, and the results show that analytical performance of the biosensor can be improved greatly after introduction of the MWCNTs. Response time, sensitivity, linear range, limit of detection (S/N=3), and apparent Michaelis-Menten constant Km are 25s, 0.54 microA mM(-1), 8.0 x 10(-6) to 4.5 x 10(-4) M, 4.0 x 10(-6) M, and 0.41 mM for the biosensor without MWCNTs and 13 s, 1.55 microA mM(-1), 4.0 x 10(-6) to 7.0 x 10(-4) M, 1.0 x 10(-6) M, and 0.24 mM for the biosensor with MWCNTs, respectively. The activation energy of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction was measured to be 42.6 kJ mol(-1). This method has been used to determine the free cholesterol concentration in real human blood samples. 相似文献

A novel cholesterol biosensor was prepared based on gold nanoparticles-catalyzed luminol electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL). Firstly, l-cysteine-reduced graphene oxide composites were modified on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode. Then, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were self-assembled on it. Subsequently, cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) was adsorbed on the surface of AuNPs to construct a cholesterol biosensor. The stepwise fabrication processes were characterized with cyclic voltammetry and atomic force microscopy. The ECL behaviors of the biosensor were also investigated. It was found that AuNPs not only provided larger surface area for higher ChOx loading but also formed the nano-structured interface on the electrode surface to improve the analytical performance of the ECL biosensor for cholesterol. Besides, based on the efficient catalytic ability of AuNPs to luminol ECL, the response of the biosensor to cholesterol was linear range from 3.3 μM to 1.0 mM with a detection limit of 1.1 μM (S/N=3). In addition, the prepared ECL biosensor exhibited satisfying reproducibility, stability and selectivity. Taking into account the advantages of ECL, we confidently expect that ECL would have potential applications in biotechnology and clinical diagnosis. 相似文献

We report on a highly sensitive electrochemical biosensor for the determination of total cholesterol. The novel biosensor was fabricated by co-immobilizing three enzymes, cholesterol oxidase (ChO(x)), cholesterol esterase (ChE) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP), on nanoporous gold networks directly grown on a titanium substrate (Ti/NPAu/ChO(x)-HRP-ChE). The morphology and composition of the fabricated nanoporous gold were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD). The electrochemical behaviour of the Ti/NPAu/ChO(x)-HRP-ChE biosensor was studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV), showing that the developed biosensor possessed high selectivity and high sensitivity (29.33 μA mM?1 cm?2). The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant, K(M)(app) of this biosensor was very low (0.64 mM), originating from the effective immobilization process and the nanoporous structure of the substrate. The biosensor exhibited a wide linear range up to 300 mg dL?1 in a physiological condition (pH 7.4), which makes it very promising for the clinical determination of cholesterol. The fabricated biosensor was further tested using real food samples margarine, butter and fish oil, showing that the biosensor has the potential to be used as a facile cholesterol detection tool in food and supplement quality control. 相似文献

A prototype chronoamperometric biosensor for the determination of total cholesterol was developed that consists of a homemade potentiostat and disposable strips immobilized with Fe(3)O(4), cholesterol oxidase (ChOx), and cholesterol esterase (ChE). The principle of sensing cholesterol is based on the detection of reduction signal of hydrogen peroxide generated in two enzymatic reactions. The co-immobilization of ChE and ChOx allows the sensor to detect both concentrations of esterified and free cholesterol. The effects of biosensor on catalyst, enzymes, applied potential, and buffer pH was investigated, and the operation conditions were optimized. The detection of cholesterol can be accomplished in one step, a 10 microL of sample was dropped onto the area of sensing strip and the reduction signal was obtained at an applied potential of -200 mV (vs. Ag/Ag(+)). The pre-reaction time was set at 15s before applying potential on the strip and the sampling time was 5s. The sensing device displays a linear response over the range of 100-400mg/dL (R(2)=0.999) for cholesteryl oleate. The coefficient variation was determined as 5.06% (N=20) for 100mg/dL cholesteryl oleate and the detection limit is 19.4 mg/dL (S/N=3). The probable interferences in bio-matrix were selected to test the selectivity and no significant response was observed in the biosensor. 相似文献

A new amperometric biosensor for determining cholesterol based on deflavination of the enzyme cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) and subsequent reconstitution of the apo-protein with a complexed flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) monolayer is described. The charge transfer mediator pyrroquinoline quinone (PQQ) was covalently bound to a cystamine self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on an Au electrode. Boronic acid (BA) was then bound to PQQ using the carbodiimide procedure, and the BA ligand was complexed to the FAD molecules on which the apo-ChOx was subsequently reconstituted. The effective release of the FAD from the enzyme and the successful reconstitution were verified using molecular fluorescence and cyclic voltammetry. The optimal orientation of FAD toward the PQQ mediator and the distances between FAD and PQQ and between PQQ and electrode enhance the charge transfer, very high sensitivity (about 2,500 nAmM(-1)cm(-2)) being obtained for cholesterol determination. The biosensor is selective toward electroactive interferents (ascorbic acid and uric acid) and was tested in reference serum samples, demonstrating excellent accuracy (relative errors below 3% in all cases). The biosensor activity can be successfully regenerated in a simple process by successive reconstitution with batches of recently prepared apo-ChOx on the same immobilized Au/SAM-PQQ-BA-FAD monolayer (it was tested five times); the lifetime of the biosensor is about 45-60 days. 相似文献

New developments in biosensor design are appearing at a high rate as these devices play increasingly important roles in daily life. This review aims to highlight recent developments in materials and techniques for electrochemical biosensor design and construction. Rapid growth in biomaterials, especially the availability and application of a vast range of polymers and copolymers associated with new sensing techniques have led to remarkable innovation in the design and construction of biosensors, significant improvements in sensor function and the emergence of new types of biosensor. Nevertheless, in vivo applications remain limited by functional deterioration due to surface fouling by biological components. However, new copolymers based upon biomembrane mimicry have been extensively investigated during the last two decades, raising hopes that the problems related to interactions between foreign surfaces and biological fluids and tissues may soon be solved. 相似文献

We describe the preparation of glutaraldehyde cross-linked and functionalized cholesterol esterase nanoparticles (ChENPs) and cholesterol oxidase nanoparticles (ChOxNPs) aggregates and their co-immobilization onto Au electrode for improved amperometric determination of serum total cholesterol. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images of ChENPs and ChOxNPs showed their spherical shape and average size of 35.40 and 56.97 nm, respectively. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) studies of Au electrode confirmed the co-immobilization of enzyme nanoparticles (ENPs). The biosensor exhibited optimal response at pH 5.5 and 40 °C within 5 s when polarized at +0.25 V versus Ag/AgCl. The working/linear range of the biosensor was 10–700 mg/dl for cholesterol. The sensor showed high sensitivity and measured total cholesterol as low as 0.1 mg/dl. The biosensor was evaluated and employed for total cholesterol determination in sera of apparently healthy and diseased persons. The analytical recovery of added cholesterol was 90%, whereas the within-batch and between-batch coefficients of variation (CVs) were less than 2% and less than 3%. There was a good correlation (r = 0.99) between serum cholesterol values as measured by the standard enzymic colorimetric method and the current method. The initial activity of ENPs/working electrode was reduced by 50% during its regular use (200 times) over a period of 60 days when stored dry at 4 °C. 相似文献

This paper demonstrates that glucose determination in blood can be done directly (without sample pretreatment) using a reagentless reversible biosensor based on the intrinsic spectroscopic properties of peroxidase (HRP). The biosensor, prepared by HRP and glucose oxidase entrapment in a polyacrylamide gel matrix, works in continuous mode, presents a linear response range from 1.5 × 10−6 up to 5.5 × 10−5 M and can be used for at least 750 measurements; in the best conditions (0.1 M pH 6 phosphate buffer, HRP and GOx amounts in the polymersation mixture for the sensor film preparation 0.0165 and 0.0010 g, respectively) the minimum samples rate is 30 h−1. For glucose determination, blood is simply diluted in water (until haemolysis is completed) and fed into the sensor without a cleaning step between samples; the blood absorption is corrected in a simple way by working at a proper reference wavelength. The biosensor signals have been mathematically modeled in order to facilitate the design of sensors based on the same idea for other biochemical compounds. 相似文献

The biosensor field has grown enormously since the first demonstration of the biosensor concept by Leland C. Clark, Jr. in
1962. Today's biosensor market is dominated by glucose biosensors, mass-produced enzyme electrodes for the rapid self-diagnosis
of blood glucose levels by diabetes sufferers. Here we take a historical look at the inception, growth, and development of
the enzyme biosensor field from a commercial viewpoint. The current status of the technology is evaluated and future trends
in this dynamic and fastmoving field are also anticipated. 相似文献

A fractal analysis is presented for the binding and dissociation of different heart-related compounds in solution to receptors immobilized on biosensor surfaces. The data analyzed include LCAT (lecithin cholesterol acyl transferase) concentrations in solution to egg white apoA-I rHDL immobilized on a biosensor chip surface (), native, mildly oxidized, and strongly oxidized LDL in solution to a heparin-modified Au-surface of a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor (), and TRITC-labeled HDL in solution to a bare optical fiber surface (). Single-and dual-fractal models were used to fit the data. Values of the binding and the dissociation rate coefficient(s), affinity values, and the fractal dimensions were obtained from the regression analysis provided by Corel Quattro Pro 8.0 (). The binding rate coefficients are quite sensitive to the degree of heterogeneity on the sensor chip surface. Predictive equations are developed for the binding rate coefficient as a function of the degree of heterogeneity present on the sensor chip surface and on the LCAT concentration in solution and for the affinity as a function of the ratio of fractal dimensions present in the binding and the dissociation phases. The analysis presented provided physical insights into these analyte-receptor reactions occurring on different biosensor surfaces. 相似文献

We present the design, synthesis, and functional evaluation of peptide-based fluorescent constructs for wavelength-ratiometric biosensing of a protein analyte. The concept was shown using the high-affinity model interaction between the 18 amino acid peptide pTMVP and a recombinant antibody fragment, Fab57P. pTMVP was functionalized in two different positions with 6-bromomethyl-2-(2-furanyl)-3-hydroxychromone, an environmentally sensitive fluorophore with a two-band emission. The equilibrium dissociation constant of the interaction between pTMVP and Fab57P was largely preserved upon labeling. The biosensor ability of the labeled peptide constructs was evaluated in terms of the relative intensity change of the emission bands from the normal (N*) and tautomer (T*) excited-state species of the fluorophore ( I(N*)/I(T*)) upon binding of Fab57P. When the peptide was labeled in the C terminus, the I(N*)/I(T*) ratio changed by 40% upon analyte binding, while labeling close to the residues most important for binding resulted in a construct that completely lacked ratiometric biosensor ability. Integrated biosensor elements for reagentless detection, where peptides and ratiometric fluorophores are combined to ensure robustness in both recognition and signaling, are expected to become an important contribution to the design of future protein quantification assays in immobilized formats. 相似文献

Mycolic acids (MAs) are a major component of the cell walls of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and related organisms. These alpha-alkyl beta-hydroxy long fatty acids have been the subject of numerous studies for their immunological properties. We previously reported that an interaction between cholesterol and mycolic acids could be responsible for the low accuracy in the serodiagnosis of TB when using free mycolic acid in an ELISA assay. The aim of this work was to investigate if this interaction could be due to a similarity in the structural properties between mycolic acids and cholesterol. The investigation revealed that patient sera cross-reacted with mycolic acids and cholesterol in an ELISA experiment suggesting that both molecules may present related functionality in a similar structural orientation. This relation was further supported by the interaction of mycolic acids with Amphotericin B (AmB), a known binding agent to ergosterol and cholesterol. Using a resonant mirror biosensor, we observed that AmB recognised both cholesterol and mycolic acids. In addition, a specific attraction was observed between mycolic acid and cholesterol by the accumulation of cholesterol from liposomes in suspension onto immobilized mycolic acids containing liposomes, detected with a biosensor technique. Combined, these results suggest that mycolic acids can assume a three-dimensional conformation similar to a sterol. This requires that mycolic acid exposes its hydroxyl group and assumes rigidity in its chain structure to generate a hydrophobic surface topology matching that of cholesterol. A particular folded conformation would be required for this, of which a few different types have already been proven to exist in monolayers of mycolic acids. 相似文献

A molecular machine biosensor: construction, predictive models and experimental studies 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper describes the construction, operation and predictive modeling of a molecular machine, functioning as a high sensitivity biosensor. Embedded gramicidin A (gA) ionchannels in a self-assembled tethered lipid bilayer act as biological switches in response to target molecules and provide a signal amplification mechanism that results in high sensitivity molecular detection. The biosensor can be used as a rapid and sensitive point of care diagnostic device in different media such as human serum, plasma and whole blood without the need for pre and post processing steps required in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The electrical reader of the device provides the added advantage of objective measurement. Novel ideas in the construction of the molecular machine, including fabrication of biochip arrays, and experimental studies of its ability to detect analyte molecules over a wide range of concentrations are presented. Remarkably, despite the complexity of the device, it is shown that the response can be predicted by modeling the analyte fluid flow and surface chemical reactions. The derived predictive models for the sensing dynamics also facilitate determining important variables in the design of a molecular machine such as the ion channel lifetime and diffusion dynamics within the bilayer lipid membrane as well as the bio-molecular interaction rate constants. 相似文献

The lack of specific, low-cost, rapid, sensitive, and easy detection of biomolecules has resulted in the development of biosensor technology. Innovations in biosensor technology have enabled many biosensors to be commercialized and have enabled biomolecules to be detected onsite. Moreover, the emerging technologies of lab-on-a-chip microdevices and nanosensors offer opportunities for the development of new biosensors with much better performance. Biosensors were first introduced into the laboratory by Clark and Lyons. They developed the first glucose biosensor for laboratory conditions. Then in 1973, a glucose biosensor was commercialized by Yellow Springs Instruments. The commercial biosensors have small size and simple construction and they are ideal for point-of-care biosensing. In addition to glucose, a wide variety of metabolites such as lactate, cholesterol, and creatinine can be detected by using commercial biosensors. Like the glucose biosensors (tests) other commercial tests such as for pregnancy (hCG), Escherichia coli O157, influenza A and B viruses, Helicobacter pylori, human immunodeficiency virus, tuberculosis, and malaria have achieved success. Apart from their use in clinical analysis, commercial tests are also used in environmental (such as biochemical oxygen demand, nitrate, pesticide), food (such as glutamate, glutamine, sucrose, lactose, alcohol, ascorbic acid), and biothreat/biowarfare (Bacillus anthracis, Salmonella, Botulinum toxin) analysis. In this review, commercial biosensors in clinical, environmental, food, and biowarfare analysis are summarized and the commercial biosensors are compared in terms of their important characteristics. This is the first review in which all the commercially available tests are compiled together. 相似文献

A fractal analysis is presented for the binding and dissociation of different heart-related compounds in solution to receptors immobilized on biosensor surfaces. The data analyzed include LCAT (lecithin cholesterol acyl transferase) concentrations in solution to egg white apoA-I rHDL immobilized on a biosensor chip surface (1), native, mildly oxidized, and strongly oxidized LDL in solution to a heparin-modified Au-surface of a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor (2), and TRITC-labeled HDL in solution to a bare optical fiber surface (3).

Cross-sectional epidemiological studies suggest that ovolactovegetarians have lower blood pressure and less of a rise in blood pressure with age than meat eaters. Controlled dietary intervention trials in normotensive and untreated mild hypertensive have provided more direct evidence for a direct dietary effect on blood pressure. Studies designed to identify the nutrients involved suggest that neither polyunsaturated fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, potassium, magnesium, sodium, or total protein intake are independently responsible. The pathophysiological mechanisms involved are also unclear. In view of the complex changes involved in changing to a vegetarian diet, research in this area needs to pay careful attention to experimental design. This is an area of research that has important implications for the control of hypertensive cardiovascular disease in the community by means other than drugs. 相似文献
