The composite of potassium ferricyanide and carbon nanotube was adopted to pre-functionalize the basal platinum electrode while the potassium ferricyanide acted as the activator of PYOD. The ALT catalyzed the reaction of L-alanine and-ketoglutarate to produce pyruvate which could be further enzymatically oxidized by PYOD to yield H2O2 to intensify the ECL of luminol. The biosensor showed rapid response for real-time measurement of ALT in the linear concentration range from 0.00475 to 350 U/L (r = 0.993) with a relatively standard deviation of 2.5% (CALT = 47.5 U/L,n = 6). The biosensor was applied to assay the ALT in rat serum with average recovery of 90.5%.展开更多
