An electrochemical biosensor based on chitosan- and thioctic-acid-modified nanoporous gold (NPG) co-immobilization glycerol kinase (GK) and glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase (GPO) was constructed for glycerol determination in wine. The NPG, with the properties of porous microstructure, large specific surface area, and high conductivity, was beneficial for protecting the enzyme from inactivation and denaturation and enhancing electron transfer in the modified electrode. The co-immobilization of the enzyme by chitosan-embedding and thioctic-acid-modified NPG covalent bonding was beneficial for improving the catalytic performance and stability of the enzyme-modified electrode. Ferrocene methanol (Fm) was used as a redox mediator to accelerate the electron transfer rate of the enzyme-modified electrode. The fabricated biosensor exhibited a wide determination range of 0.1–5 mM, low determination limit of 77.08 μM, and high sensitivity of 9.17 μA mM−1. Furthermore, it possessed good selectivity, repeatability, and stability, and could be used for the determination of glycerol in real wine samples. This work provides a simple and novel method for the construction of biosensors, which may be helpful to the application of enzymatic biosensors in different determination scenarios.
