Glutamate oxidase biosensor based on mixed ceria and titania nanoparticles for the detection of glutamate in hypoxic environments.

ABSTRACT: We report on the design and development of a glutamate oxidase (GmOx) microelectrode for measuring l-glutamic acid (GluA) in oxygen-depleted conditions, which is based on the oxygen storage and release capacity of cerium oxides. To fabricate the biosensor, a nanocomposite of oxygen-rich ceria and titania nanoparticles dispersed within a semi-permeable chitosan membrane was co-immobilized with the enzyme GmOx on the surface of a Pt microelectrode. The oxygen delivery capacity of the ceria nanoparticles embedded in a biocompatible chitosan matrix facilitated enzyme stabilization and operation in oxygen free conditions. GluA was measured by amperometry at a working potential of 0.6 V vs Ag/AgCl. Detection limits of 0.594 µM and 0.493 µM and a sensitivity of 793 pA/µM (RSD 3.49%, n=5) and 395 pA/µM (RSD 2.48%, n=5) were recorded in oxygenated and deoxygenated conditions, with response times of 2s and 5s, respectively. The biosensor had good operational stability and selectivity against common interfering substances. Operation of the biosensor was tested in cerebrospinal fluid. Preliminary in vivo recording in Sprague-Dawley rats to monitor GluA in the cortex during cerebral ischemia and reperfusion demonstrate a potential application of the biosensor in hypoxic conditions. This method provides a solution to ensure functionality of oxidoreductase enzymes in oxygen-free environments.

Project description:Foodborne pathogens, especially bacteria, are explicitly threatening public health worldwide. Biosensors represent advances in rapid diagnosis with high sensitivity and selectivity. However, multiplexed analysis and minimal pretreatment are still challenging. We fabricate a gold nanoparticle (Au NP)-amplified microcantilever array biosensor that is capable of determining ultralow concentrations of foodborne bacteria including Escherichia coli O157:H7, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Shigella, etc. The method is much faster than using conventional tools without germiculturing and PCR amplification. The six pairs of ssDNA probes (ssDNA1 + ssDNA2 partially complementary to the target gene) that originated from the sequence analysis of the specific gene of the bacteria were developed and validated. The ssDNA1 probes were modified with -S-(CH2)6 at the 5'-end and ready to immobilize on the self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of the sensing cantilevers in the array and couple with Au NPs, while 6-mercapto-1-hexanol SAM modification was carried out on the reference cantilevers to eliminate the interferences by detecting the deflection from the environment induced by non-specific interactions. For multianalyte sensing, the target gene sequence was captured by the ssDNA2-Au NPs in the solution, and then the Au NPs-ssDNA2-target complex was hybridized with ssNDA1 fixed on the beam of the cantilever sensor, which results in a secondary cascade amplification effect. Integrated with the enrichment of the Au NP platform and the microcantilever array sensor detection, multiple bacteria could be rapidly and accurately determined as low as 1-9 cells/mL, and the working ranges were three to four orders of magnitude. There was virtually no cross-reaction among the various probes with different species. As described herein, it holds great potential for rapid, multiplexed, and ultrasensitive detection in food, environment, clinical, and communal samples.
