Control of glucose concentration has tremendous significance in medical diagnosis, pharmaceuticals, food, and fermentation industries. Herein, we report on the fabrication of a facile, low-cost, and sensitive enzyme-based amperometric sensor using the electrochemically deposited polyaniline (PANI) film on a graphite electrode. PANI was deposited from an aqueous solution of 0.2 M aniline in 1.0 M hydrocholoric acid (HCl) by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Surface morphology and composition characterization of the PANI film were carried out by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Potentiostatic immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOX) enzyme in the PANI film was carried out at 0.75 V to fabricate an amperometric glucose biosensor (GOx/PANI/graphite biosensor). The glucose concentration response of the prepared sensor was studied amperometrically by detecting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The detection of H2O2 was optimized by calibrating the effects of pH, reduction potential, and background current. A reduction potential of -0.4 V at pH 6 was the best combination to get a maximum amperometric response of the GOx/PANI/graphite biosensor. A stable current response was obtained in 4 min with a high reproducibility in linearity within the concentration range of 0.01 M-0.1 M D-glucose. Therefore, the fabricated GOx/PANI/graphite biosensor could be a promising candidate for glucose sensing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
