摘要
In this study, an enzymatic electrode for glucose biosensing and bioanode of glucose/air biofuel cell has been fabricated by immobilizing poly (methylene green) (polyMG) for electrocatalytic NADH oxidation and NAD+-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) for oxidizing glucose on carbon nanodots (CNDs). The polyMG-CNDscomposites obtained by electro-polymerization of dye MG molecules adsorbed on CNDs display excellent electrocatalytic activity toward NADH electro-oxidation at a low overpotential of ca. -0.10 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) and the integrated enzymatic electrode shows fast response to glucose electrooxidation. Using the fabricated GDH-based enzymatic electrode, a glucose biosensor was constructed and exhibits a wide linear dynamic range from 0 to 8 mM, a low detection limit of 0.02 μM (S/N = 3), and fast response time (ca. 4 s) under the optimized conditions. The developed glucose biosensor was used to detect glucose content in human blood with satisfactory results. The fabricated GDH-based enzymatic electrode was also employed as bioanode to assembly a glucose/air biofuel cell with the laccase-CNDs/GC as the biocathode. The maximum power density delivered by the assembled glucose/air biofuel cell reaches 3.1 μW·cm-2 at a cell voltage of 0.22 V in real sample fruit juice. The present study demonstrates that potential applications of GDH-based CNDs electrode in analytical and biomedical measurements.
