In Vitro and In Vivo Degradation of Glucose Oxidase Enzyme Used for an Implantable Glucose Biosensor

Abstract: The presence of glucose in vitro and in vivo led to the production of H2O2, suggesting this to be the main agent responsible for enzyme degradation. The use of a Nafion coating did not provide any additional protection.

“…Limits of detection were maintained at adequate levels to discern changes in glucose using the biosensor system. Production of hydrogen peroxide has been identified as the main agent for short-term enzyme degradation in vivo [76]. The lack of significant change in maximum current shows that the original enzyme activity was still present in the system after short-term use in vivo, supporting these previous findings.…”

“…The formation of cracks and holes in the protective membranes of a biosensor will lead to changes in sensitivity, loss of linearity, and increased sensitivity from interferent molecules. Several studies have also shown that degradation of the GO x enzyme leads to decreases in glucose sensor response (Abel et al, 1999;Valdes and Moussy, 2000). However, for most biosensor designs an excess of enzyme is used, therefore lost enzyme activity is very seldom a problem, as was the case in the study by Updike et al (1994).…”

“…The sensitivity remained nearly constant from 10 to 70 days and, thereafter, a gradual reduction in sensitivity was observed until the end of the study period of 90 days ( figure 9). Build-up of H 2 O 2 within the enzyme layer during storage in 5 mM glucose solution in PBS could be a reason for the decrease in sensitivity, because H 2 O 2 was earlier demonstrated to deleteriously affect the function of GOx enzyme [38]. To circumvent this problem, excess loading of GOx was suggested [23], and our CNT fibers were loaded with excess enzyme per unit electro-active surface area.…”
