Abstract

Conductive polymer nanotubules of 1,2-diaminobenzene (1,2-DAB) were prepared using a porous polycarbonate membrane template, placed on a Pt foil and used to support the polymer, then, the electropolymerisation was performed by chronocoulometry. The obtained conductive polymer nanostructures were then placed on Pt electrode and used to support highly dispersed prussian blue (PB), which acts as the active component for H2O2 detection. The observed good stability of PB as catalyst of H2O2 was related to the presence of organic non-conventional conducting polymers in a composite nanostructured film. These nanostructured polymer/PB composite films were also characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy. The non-conventional conducting polymer nanotubules/PB modified Pt electrodes were tested by cyclic voltammeter for stability at different pH values, then, by amperometry, for hydrogen peroxide, ascorbic acid, acetaminophen, uric acid and acetylcholine. Glucose oxidase (GOD), lactate oxidase (LOD), l-aminoacid oxidase (l-AAOD), alcohol oxidase (AOD), glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase (GPO), lysine oxidase (LyOx), and choline oxidase (ChOx) were immobilised on PB layer supported on 1,2-diaminobenzene (1,2-DAB) nanotubules onto the Pt electrodes. Different strategies for enzyme immobilisation were performed and used. Analytical parameters such as reproducibility, interference rejection, response time, storage and operational stability of the sensors have been studied and optimised. Results provide a guide to design high sensitive, stable and interference-free biosensors. The glucose biosensors assembled with nanostructured poly(1,2-DAB) showed a detection limit of 5 × 10-5 mol l-1, a wide linearity range (5 × 10-5 to 5 × 10-3 mol l-1), a high selectivity, a stability of 3 months at 4 oC, and at least 4 weeks at room temperature. Similar analytical parameters and stability were also studied for l-(+)-lactic acid, l-leucine, ethanol, glycerol-3-phosphate, lysine, and choline biosensors.
