Abstract: | A method is described for the construction of a highly sensitive amperometric sensor for the detection of tyrosine, employing a magnetic nanoparticles-zinc oxide/zinc hexacyanoferrate (Fe3O4NP-ZnO/ZnHCF) hybrid film electrodeposited on the surface of a Pt electrode as working electrode. The sensor is based on electrocatalytic mechanism initiated by electrochemical oxidation of the reduced form of the hybrid film at +0.2 V vs. Ag/AgCl followed by completion of chemical oxidation of tyrosine. The sensor showed optimum response within 2 s at pH 2. The working/linear range of the sensor was 0.02–2.76 mM with a detection limit of 4 μM. The sensor measured tyrosine level in serum, a potential biomarker of phenylketonuria. The working electrode lost only 5 % of its initial activity, when stored at 4 °C, after its regular use over a period of 100 days. |
