Abstract

<p>Fructose biosensor based on D-Fructose dehydrogenase (FDH) was developed with use of tris (1,10-phenanthroline) cobalt (II) complex (Co(phen)32+) as a redox mediator. Co(phen)32+ could be prepared easily and was oxidized reversibly at low potential. For the immobilization of FDH, a gold electrode was modified through chemisorption of cystamine. FDH was covalently bound to self-assembled monolayer of cystamine by cross-linking amino groups of cystamine and FDH molecule using glutaraldehyde. With use of Co(phen)32+ as a redox mediator, the catalytic current of the FDH-modified gold electrode increased by the addition of D-fructose. In the immobilization procedure, 0.2 mg/ml of FDH resulted in the largest catalytic response among other concentration of FDH. The best sensitivity of the sensor was obtained at pH 7.0 and 35°C. The calibration curve exhibits a linear relationship between 10 and 110 µM with a correlation coefficient of 0.971 and the relative standard deviation of 0.57% (n = 3).</p>
