Layer-by-layer supramolecular structures composed of alternate layers of negatively charged enzymes and cationic redox polyelectrolyte have been assembled. Glucose oxidase (GOx), lactate oxidase (LOx) and soybean peroxidase (SBP) have been electrically wired to the underlying electrode by means of poly(allylamine) with [Os(bpy)2ClPyCOH]+ covalently attached (PAA-Os) in organized structures with high spatial resolution. Biotinylated glucose oxidase has also been used to assemble step-by-step on antibiotin goat immunoglobulin (IgG) layers and the enzyme was electrically wired by PAA-Os. These spatially organized multilayers with mono- and bienzymatic schemes can work efficiently in molecular recognition, redox mediation and generation of an electrical signal. The concentration of redox mediator integrated into the multilayers, obtained from the voltammetric charge and an estimation of the layer thickness, exceeds by 100-fold the amount of deposited enzyme assessed by quartz crystal microbalance. Differences in GOx electrical wiring efficiency have been detected with the different assembling strategies. The surface concentration of electrically wired enzyme represents a small proportion of all the enzyme molecules present in the multilayers which can be oxidized by the soluble mediator [Os(bpy)2Cl PyCOOH]Cl. This proportion, as well as the rate of FADH2 oxidation by PAA-Os, increases with the number of electrically wired enzyme layers and with the spatial accessibility of the Os moiety to the enzyme active center.

We report the amperometric detection of glucose at 2 fM concentration in a physiological buffer solution at 1 atm O2 pressure. The sensitive assay is based on the close to absolute electroreductive stripping of O2 from the solution near the glucose electrooxidizing anode. The glucose was detected by its electrooxidation on a stationary glassy carbon disk surrounded by an also stationary platinum ring. The disk was coated with a film of glucose oxidase (GOx), electrically "wired" with PVP-[Os(N,N'-dimethyl-2,2'-biimidazole)3]2+/3+ (polymer I), having a redox potential of -0.19 V versus Ag/AgCl. The ring was coated with bilirubin oxidase (BOD) "wired" with PAA-PVI-[Os(4,4'-dichloro-2,2'-bipyridine)2Cl]+/2+ (polymer II), having a redox potential of + 0.36 V versus Ag/AgCl. The ring-disk electrode was held facing up, and a 30-microL drop was placed on it for the assay, with the ring poised at -0.3 V/ AgAgCl and the disk poised at -0.1 V/ Ag/AgCl. Even though the atmosphere over the drop was O2 at 1 atm pressure, the wired BOD disk scavenged the O2 so effectively that the glucose-reduced FADH2 of GOx was not oxidized by O2, the natural cosubstrate of the enzyme.
