An amperometric ethanol biosensor was fabricated by integration of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) with meldolas blue (MB)/ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) composite modified glassy carbon electrode (MB/OMC/GCE). The MB/OMC/GCE was highly sensitive for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) measurement (9.1 AE 0.25 mA/ mM) and gave a low detection limit of 0.21 AE 0.02 mM. The ethanol biosensor exhibited a wide linear range up to 6 mM with a lower detection limit of 19.1 AE 0.58 mM as well as a high sensitivity of 34.58 AE 2.43 nA/mM without suffering any interference from some common electroactive compounds.
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.
