A flow injection analysis (FIA) biosensor system has been developed for the determination of glucose from urine, blood plasma and foodstuffs. Glucose oxidase was immobilized onto porous aminopropyl glass beads via glutaraldehyde activation to form an enzyme column. The hydrogen peroxide released from the conversion of glucose to gluconic acid was monitored by a platinum electrode vs. silver/silver chloride poised at +700 mV. As a novel aspect to the improvement of the selectivity of the biosensor system, an anion exchange column was placed upstream to remove uric acid, ascorbic acid or acetaminophen, three major electroactive interfering substances which usually occur in urine and blood plasma. Among several resins tested, the effective adsorption of uric and ascorbic acids could be accomplished using an acetate anion exchanger, and the selectivity coefficient was pH dependent. The binding of acetaminophen to the resin was much less efficient and, in all cases, the selectivity coefficient was independent of the operating temperature up to 37 degrees C. When applied to real samples, the data obtained by the biosensor system compared well with those of the standard hexokinase assay. The immobilized glucose oxidase could be reused for at least 2000 repeated analyses without loss of its original activity.

4-Aminodiphenylamine (N-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine, CAS 101-54-2) and its water-soluble HCl salt (CAS 2198-59-6) were demonstrated to be efficient mediators for glucose oxidase, lactate oxidase, xanthine oxidase, and lysine oxidase. Using cyclic voltammetry, single oxidative peak potentials were observed for scans ranging from 0 to 0.5 V vs Ag/AgCl. The half-wave potential for both preparations was 0.11 V vs Ag/AgCl at pH 7 and decreased 59 mV per unit pH increase. Peak current data were analyzed to estimate diffusivities of 0.8 x 10(-5) cm2/s for soluble 4-ADPA HCl, and 2.36 x 10(-5) cm2/s for 4-ADPA solubilized in 2.5 mM 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin. The overall second-order kinetic constants (k) for the reaction of reduced glucose oxidase with oxidized 4-ADPA HCl and 4-ADPA in cyclodextrin were estimated to be 1.8 x 10(5) and 1.7 x 10(-5) M-1 s-1, respectively, using cyclic voltammetry measurements at varied scan rates and enzyme concentrations. Both preparations proved to be suitable electron acceptors for horseradish peroxidase, as indicated by changes in absorbance spectra upon oxidation or reduction. The electrochemical and spectral behavior of the preparations were applied in conjunction with glucose oxidase to devise mediated amperometric and hydrogen peroxide-coupled spectrophotometric assays for glucose. The results of both assays compared favorably with the hexokinase reference method.

Gliclazide interferes with the glucose determination using the glucose oxidase/peroxidase (EC 1.1.3.4/1.11.1.7) (GOD-PERID) method utilizing 2,2-azino-di-(3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) as the oxygen acceptor chromogen. There was an essentially linear relationship between the concentrations of gliclazide and decreasing glucose readings. One mu mol/1 of gliclazide in samples leads to an apparent loss of about 2.5 mu mol/l of glucose. However, gliclazide did not interfere with the glucose determination using the hexokinase/glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase method. This interference in the GOD-PERID method for glucose assay can occur in the in vitro experimental samples and cause underestimation of the glucose values. It is suggested that careful attention should be paid to the limited applicability of the GOD-PERID method for glucose assay.

1,1'-dimethylferricinium (DMFe+), a stable and pH-insensitive blue dye, was prepared via enzymatic oxidation of a 1,1'dimethyl-ferrocene (DMFe):2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPCD) water-soluble inclusion complex, using bilirubin oxidase immobilized onto porous aminopropyl glass beads via glutaraldehyde activation. In the presence of glucose, DMFe+ was reduced to DMFe by reacting with the reduced glucose oxidase (FADH2), and the absorbance decrease was followed at 650 nm. In acetate pH 5.2 buffer, the response to glucose in blood serum was nonlinear, especially in the low concentration range, because of a competition for the reduced glucose oxidase between the DMFe+ dye and oxygen. At this pH, endogenous ceruloplasmin was also observed to oxidize residual DMFe (16%) in the dye preparation, causing an increase in absorbance at 650 nm. An assay protocol was then developed using maleate buffer, pH 6.5, to overcome these interferences as well as mutarotation of alpha-D-glucose. The results obtained for glucose in the blood serum samples agreed well with those of the reference hexokinase/glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase method.

A very small electrode (nanobiosensor) was constructed by immobilizing enzyme (glucose oxidase or hexokinase) on the surface of the cantilever of the atomic force microscope in order to detect the absorption of glucose molecules by living cells. If glucose is present, the nanobiosensor deflects, probably due to the reaction heat evolved in the process. Nanobiosensors built with inactivated enzyme or cantilevers without immobilized enzyme were not capable of producing this type of signal (deflection). This technique will be very useful in detecting the passage of specific molecules through a cell wall (or a cell membrane for other types of cells).

A procedure is described for the purification of the enzyme indol-3-ylacetylglucose:myo-inositol indol-3-ylacetyltransferase (IAA-myo-inositol synthase). This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of indol-3-ylacetate from 1-0-indol-3-ylacetyl-beta-d-glucose to myo-inositol to form indol-3-ylacetyl-myo-inositol and glucose. A hexokinase or glucose oxidase based assay system is described. The enzyme has been purified approximately 16,000-fold, has an isoelectric point of pH 6.1 and yields three catalytically inactive bands upon acrylamide gel electrophoresis of the native protein. The enzyme shows maximum transferase activity with myo-inositol but shows some transferase activity with scyllo-inositol and myo-inosose-2. No transfer of IAA occurs with myo-inositol-d-galactopyranose, cyclohexanol, mannitol, or glycerol as acyl acceptor. The affinity of the enzyme for 1-0-indol-3-ylacetyl-beta-d-glucose is, Km = 30 micromolar, and for myo-inositol is, Km = 4 millimolar. The enzyme does not catalyze the exchange incorporation of glucose into IAA-glucose indicating the reaction mechanism involves binding of IAA glucose to the enzyme with subsequent hydrolytic cleavage of the acyl moiety by the hydroxyl of myo-inositol to form IAA myo-inositol ester.

A dual enzyme electrode for the detection of adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) at physiologically relevant pH levels was developed by co-immobilization of the enzymes glucose oxidase (GOD) and hexokinase (HEX) using pH-shift induced deposition of enzyme containing polymer films. Application of a simple electrochemical procedure for the co-immobilization of the enzymes at electrode surfaces exhibits a major improvement of sensitivity, response time, reproducibility, and ease of fabrication of ATP biosensors. Competition between glucose oxidase and hexokinase for the substrate glucose involving ATP as a co-substrate allows the determination of ATP concentrations. Notable control on the immobilization process enables fabrication of micro biosensors with a diameter of 25 microm. The presented concept provides the technological basis for a new generation of fast responding, sensitive, and robust biosensors for the detection of ATP at physiological pH values with a detection limit of 10 nmol l(-1).

There is an urgent need to develop technology for continuous in vivo glucose monitoring in subjects with diabetes mellitus. Problems with existing devices based on electrochemistry have encouraged alternative approaches to glucose sensing in recent years, and those based on fluorescence intensity and lifetime have special advantages, including sensitivity and the potential for non-invasive measurement when near-infrared light is used. Several receptors have been employed to detect glucose in fluorescence sensors, and these include the lectin concanavalin A (Con A), enzymes such as glucose oxidase, glucose dehydrogenase and hexokinase/glucokinase, bacterial glucose-binding protein, and boronic acid derivatives (which bind the diols of sugars). Techniques include measuring changes in fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between a fluorescent donor and an acceptor either within a protein which undergoes glucose-induced changes in conformation or because of competitive displacement; measurement of glucose-induced changes in intrinsic fluorescence of enzymes (e.g. due to tryptophan residues in hexokinase) or extrinsic fluorophores (e.g. using environmentally sensitive fluorophores to signal protein conformation). Non-invasive glucose monitoring can be accomplished by measurement of cell autofluorescence due to NAD(P)H, and fluorescent markers of mitochondrial metabolism can signal changes in extracellular glucose concentration. Here we review the principles of operation, context and current status of the various approaches to fluorescence-based glucose sensing.

Extracellular adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) is involved in a variety of relevant regulatory mechanisms at a cellular level and has therefore been focus of extensive research. One of the major challenges associated with measuring this key regulatory analyte is the ability to detect and localize extracellular ATP with sufficient spatial and temporal resolution in physiological environments. In this study, scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) utilizing an amperometric micro-biosensor based on co-immobilization of the enzymes glucose oxidase and hexokinase is applied for imaging ATP transport through a porous polycarbonate membrane under physiologically relevant conditions. The enzymatic biosensor operates on competitive consumption of the substrate glucose between the immobilized enzymes glucose oxidase and hexokinase involving ATP as a co-substrate. Quantitative determination of the ATP concentration is based on a linear correlation between the glucose consumption and the ATP level. Integration of the amperometric ATP micro-biosensor into a dual micro-disk electrode configuration is achieved by immobilizing the enzymes at one of the micro-disk electrodes while the second disk serves as an unmodified amperometric probe for controlled positioning of the micro-biosensor in close proximity to the sample surface enabling quantification of the obtained current signal.

The co-immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOD) and hexokinase/glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (HEX) in the silica hybrid sol-gel film for development of amperometric biosensors was investigated. The silica hybrid film fabricated by hydrolysis of the mixture of tetraethyl orthosilicate and 3-(trimethoxysiyl)propyl methacrylate possessed a three-dimension vesicle structure and good uniformity and conformability, and was ready for enzyme immobilization. The electrochemical and spectroscopic measurements showed that the silica hybrid sol-gel provided excellent matrice for the enzyme immobilization and that the immobilized enzyme retained its bioactivity effectively. The immobilized GOD could catalyze the oxidation of glucose, which could be used to determine glucose at +1.0 V without help of any mediator. The competition between GOD and HEX for the substrate glucose involving ATP as a co-substrate led to a decrease of the glucose response, which allowed us to develop an ATP sensor with a good stability. The fabricated silica hybrid sol-gel matrice offered a stage for further study of immobilization and electrochemistry of proteins.
