Biosensor for Aluminum(III) Based on α-Chymotrypsin Inhibition using a Disposable Screen-Printed Carbon Electrode and Acetyl-Tyrosine Ethyl Ester as Substrate

Abstract: We report on a new amperometric assay for Al(III) ions based on the inhibition of α-chymotrypsin enzyme. The immobilization of the enzyme was performed on screen-printed carbon electrodes modified with gold nanoparticles and polyvinyl alcohol. N-acetyl-tyrosine ethyl ester, used as enzyme substrate, produces an oxidation amperometric signal, which at increasing aluminum concentration is diminished. The developed system has a detection limit of 1.5 ± 0.1 μM (n=7) for Al(III). The reproducibility of the method i… Show more

“…However, in the presence of F – ions (curve-c), the extent of aggregation of TA@AgNPs by Al­(III) ions was significantly suppressed. This could be due to the formation of water-soluble strong Al–F complexes with the stability constant (βn = 7–19), , which are significantly higher than those for the Al–TA complexes (βn = 5). ,, Moreover, as the addition of various concentrations of F – ions did not cause any significant absorption change in TA@AgNPs (Figure S7), the anti-aggregation effect of F – ion could be solely due to its interaction with Al­(III) ions, which was further proved by the ζ-potential results (Figure S5). The ζ-potentials of TA@AgNPs and TA@AgNPs/Al­(III) systems were −19 and −7 mV, respectively.…”
