Abstract
Description
- The embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention relates to an electrochemical sensor, and more particularly, to an electrochemical biosensor using a sensing system including a working electrode containing an active surface modified by a linker, and an auxiliary electrode.
- One of the goals of nanomedicine in life science is to study various biological processes in a laboratory, in which nanomaterials are compatible. Since most of the biochemical processes involve in vivo electron transfer, it has received attention in an electrochemical field. In that field, the development of a new form of the electrochemical biosensor to which an enzyme or other biomaterials are linked together with the nanomaterials has become important. Glucose is a very common fuel in biology, and used as an energy source in most organisms ranging from microorganisms to humans. The concentration of glucose in human blood is 4.4 to 6.6 mM. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a continuous quantitative detection method of glucose in blood, urine, and other body fluid. Since an abnormal increase in a glucose level causes diabetes, it is an important factor to detect glucose. Up to date, various conductive polymers such as polyaniline, polypyrrole or polyindole have been used for glucose sensing. However, this method needs long process time, and involves complicated chemical synthesis which increases production cost. In addition, self-assembled monolayer (SAM) is widely used for covalent bonding of glucose oxidase. However, the sensitivity of a glucose sensor is generally resulted from the compromise between low stability of SAMs and limited potential window. Therefore, in order to overcome the limitations of SAMs, the study of reductive adsorption of an aryl diazonium salt in a carbon electrode has been conducted. The study may be applied for sensing on not only all kinds of carbon surfaces (glass carbon, graphite, surface printed electrode carbon nanotube diamond) but also metal, silicone and indium tin oxide. The electrochemical reduction of a diazonium salt has been successfully used in order to form various functional groups in a carbon electrode for immobilizing biomolecules. However, adsorbing a diazonium salt on a nano-sized electrode still remains as a challenge.
- Most of the recent studies of a glucose sensor are based on immobilization of enzymes, such as glucose oxidase promoting oxidation of glucose to gluconolactone such as in Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2000-0008880, or glucose dehydrogenase such as in Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication Nos. 10-2010-0131495 and 10-2005-0019139. In most cases, a sensor based on an enzyme needs a charge carrier for improving the sensitivity and selectivity of the sensor. However, a current measuring enzyme electrode has relatively low output current and sensitivity, and has a problem in that the reaction time is delayed.
- In particular, when measuring a glucose level in blood of a diabetic patient, ion attraction of various interfering substances in blood should be alleviated by applying an extremely low voltage (0.055 V or less), and a rapid enzyme oxidation reaction needs to be induced, and thus, there needs to develop a glucose sensor facilitating a high current density and excellent sensitivity with a low voltage input.
- An object of the embodiment of the present invention is to provide a glucose sensor provided with nanoelectrodes facilitating high output current density, efficient charge transfer, high surface to volume ratio, and excellent sensitivity.
- In one general aspect,
- an electrochemical sensor for determining presence or concentration of an analyte in a fluid includes:
- a substrate; and
- working electrodes formed on the substrate, and having an enzyme attached thereon by a linker.
- The electrochemical sensor may form a matrix in which P working electrodes (P is a natural number of 1 or more) are arranged longitudinally and/or transversely.
- The immobilization of biomolecules on a single electrode surface allows direct electron transfer between the electrode and an enzyme.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating glucose sensing using a single electrode coated with glucose oxidase. InFIG. 1 , glucose in a specimen solution and oxygen indicated as ‘O’ are reacted in the presence of glucose oxidase to produce gluconolactone and hydrogen peroxide indicated as ‘Red’. By collecting the oxidation current of the hydrogen peroxide, glucose concentration in the electrode may be measured. After hydrogen oxidation in the electrode, oxygen as the product is transferred to an enzyme site to undergo a reduction reaction. Through repetition of the redox reactions as such, a current level may be raised. However, generally the current level obtained by using the strategy becomes very low due to the reduction in surface reactivity caused by enzyme coating and limited electrode surface area. Therefore, in order to obtain a high current level, the study of electrode geometry is needed. - In order to improve a redox current level, the study of an IDA (interdigitated array) nanoelectrode is actively conducted. The electrode may be manufactured using various kinds of conductive materials such as carbon, gold, platinum, palladium, and conductive polymers. The IDA nanoelectrode may include two comb-shaped electrodes. As in
FIG. 2 , the redox reactions of electrochemical reversible redox species are recycled between electrodes; this amplifies a current signal with the number of recycles. The current signal amplification by redox cycling depends on mass transfer of the redox species between electrodes. Particularly, the mass transfer through diffusion at micro/nano-electrodes may be improved by reducing the gap between the electrodes, and increasing the aspect ratio of the electrodes. - Redox mediators play an important role in the detection of various molecules using the electrochemical sensor. The mediators transfer electrons between enzymes and electrodes through electrochemical-enzyme redox cycling. In the reaction mechanism of glucose oxidase (GOx), oxygen rapidly reacts with GOx in a reduced form to produce hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct of the reaction. Here, oxygen may be replaced with various forms of redox mediators such as ruthenium, a hexamine complex, ferricyanide, ferrocenemethanol and ferrocenemonocarboxylic acid. The electron mediators undergo rapid electron transfer reactions on electrode surface and a rapid electron transfer reaction with a redox enzyme. For example, redox reactions using ferricyanide may occur as follows:
-
Glucose+GOx(FAD)→Gluconic acid+GOx(FADH2)+2H+ [Reaction Formula 1] -
GOx(FADH2)+[Fe(CN)6]3−→GOx(FADH)+[Fe(CN)6]4−+H30 [Reaction Formula 2] -
GOx(FADH2)+[Fe(CN)6]3−→GOx(FADH)+[Fe(CN)6]4− [Reaction Formula 3] - In the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, the linker is not limited, but may be attached on nanoparticles directly formed on the electrode.
- In the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, the nanoparticles are not limited, but may be selected from the group consisting of gold, platinum and palladium.
- In another exemplary embodiment of the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, the electrochemical sensor may further include an auxiliary electrode formed to be spaced apart from the working electrode in a horizontal direction of the substrate.
- In the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, the electrochemical sensor of the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention may include M×N units (M and N are a natural number more than 1, respectively) wherein the unit is a pair of the one working electrode and one auxiliary electrode, and M units are arranged to be spaced apart in a longitudinal direction, and N units are arranged to be spaced apart in a transverse direction, thereby forming a M×N matrix.
- As illustrated in
FIG. 3 , the glucose oxidase may be selectively immobilized only on any one of the IDA electrodes (comb 1), through which a reduced species may be oxidized more efficiently on the other electrode (comb 2) which is not coated with any material resulting in higher electrochemical reactivity at surface. Thus, high signal amplification as compared with the sensing based on a single electrode is possible. As the two electrodes are more closely spaced, the current level may be improved. The enzyme may be selectively immobilized on a certain electrode by reducing the aryl diazonium salt. - As mentioned above, in the present glucose sensor, oxygen may be replaced with various forms of redox mediators such as ruthenium, a hexamine complex, ferricyanide, ferrocenemethanol and ferrocenemonocarboxylic acid, which may be recycled between the enzyme and the electrode. The redox species may be electrochemically reacted on an electrode surface without hydrolysis which limits stable glucose sensing when using oxygen as the redox species.
- In the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, the analyte-enzyme is not limited, however,
- may be selected from the group consisting of glucose-glucose oxidase; glucose-glucose dehydrogenase; adenosine triphosphate-glucose oxidase and hexokinase; cholesterol-cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) and cholesterol esterase; and lactate-lactate dehydrogenase.
- As in
FIG. 4 , diazonium salt binding may provide various functional groups such as —NH2 and —COOH which allow various biomolecules to be linked on the electrode surface. Further, as inFIG. 5 , selective linkage of biomolecules on an IDA nanoelectrode based on diazonium may contribute to the detection of various types of molecules as follows: - (a) glucose using glucose oxidase (GOx),
- (b) adenosine triphosphate (ATP) using glucose oxidase and hexokinase,
- (c) cholesterol using cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) and cholesterol esterase,
- (d) lactate using lactate dehydrogenase.
- Another exemplary embodiment of the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention relates to an electrochemical sensor including electrodes having a mesh shape that are separated apart from the substrate in a vertical direction.
- In the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, the sensor may further include an auxiliary electrode formed under the working electrode while having a space therebetween, but not limited thereto.
- The electrochemical sensor manufactured in the form of a mash-shaped electrode may represent better efficiency in redox cycling, as compared with that using the IDA nanoelectrode.
- In the embodiment of the embodiment of the present invention, the linker may be formed by converting a functional group of a surface-modified base material including diazonium, a diazonium salt or a derivative thereof into an amine group, and then mixing the surface-modified base material with a dialdehyde crosslinking agent, and attach the biomaterial on an electrode surface.
- In another general aspect, a method of manufacturing an electrochemical sensor includes:

- (Chemical Materials)
- Acetonitrile (Fisher Scientific), tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (NBu4BF4, Fluka), 4-nitrophenyl diazonium tetrafluoroborate (4-NP), potassium ferricyanide, potassium ferrocyanide, glutaraldehyde, potassium chloride, sodium cyanoborohydride, Aspergillus niger-derived glucose oxidase (Type X-S, 100,000-250,000 units/g solid, Sigma Aldrich), and phosphate buffer (PBS, pH 7.4; Life Technologies).
- A carbon IDA nanoelectrode was manufactured on a 6 inch (100) silicon wafer (Si wafer).
- First, a 700-nm-thick silicon dioxide (SiO2) layer was deposited on the silicon wafer by thermal oxidation. An SU-8 negative photoresist IDA structures were patterned using photolithography. In order to convert the photoresist structures into carbon electrodes, the predefined photoresist IDA patterns were pyrolyzed at 900° C. in a vacuum condition. During the pyrolysis, the size of the IDA structure was reduced by 60% in width, and by 90% in height. Finally, the carbon electrodes were passivated except for the interdigitated electrode area.
- As in Example 6, the immobilization of an enzyme may include three steps. 4-nitrophenyl diazonium tetrafluoroborate (4-NP) was used as a base. In order to link the enzyme to diazonium, the functional group of diazonium was converted into an amine group, and glutaraldehyde was used between the amine group of diazonium and the enzyme.
- Electrochemical Adsorption of 4-NP
- The electrochemical modification of the carbon electrode was measured by scanning electric potential of the electrode from 0.5 to -0.7 V at a scan rate of 200 mV/s vs a Ag/AgCl reference electrode, in acetonitrile containing 1 mM 4-NP in 0.1 M NBu4BF4. Before modification, impurities were removed from the solvent using argon gas for 30 minutes. After modification, the electrodes were washed with deionized water (DI water) for 30 minutes.
- Reduction of Nitro Group to Amine Group
- For production of an amine group by reducing a nitro group, a protic solvent containing 0.1 M potassium chloride and water/ethanol (90:10, v/v) was used. The potential of the electrode was measured by scanning the electric potential of the electrode from 0 to 0.8 V at a scan rate of 100 mV/s vs a Ag/AgCl reference electrode.
- Enzyme Immobilization
- For enzyme immobilization via a linker, glutaraldehyde was used as a bifunctional crosslinking agent. After converting the amine group, the carbon IDA electrodes were soaked in 200 μL of 0.1% sodium cyanoborohydride and 2.5 wt % glutaraldehyde solution for 2 hours, and then taken out.
- Thereafter, the electrodes were cleaned with deionized water, and dried using nitrogen gas. In order to couple a glucose oxidase enzyme to an aldehyde group produced on a carbon electrode, the electrodes were incubated in a buffer solution containing 0.1% sodium cyanoborohydride and 10 mg/mL glucose oxidase in a 50 mM PBS buffer (pH 7.4) at 4° C. overnight.
- All electrodes were characterized using cyclic voltammetry by scanning electric potential of the electrodes from 0 to 0.6 V at a scan rate of 50 mV/s to a Ag/AgCl reference electrode in 0.5 M potassium chloride and 10 mM [Fe(CN)6]4− in deionized water. Glucose sensing was carried out using 10 mM [Fe(CN)6]3 as a redox mediator in 0.5 mM PBS (pH 7.4).
- A glucose solution was prepared at a concentration of 0.1 M in 100 mM PBS, and subjected to mutarotation at room temperature for 24 hours so as to reach anomeric equilibrium. All solutions for glucose sensing were cleaned by emitting argon gas to the solutions for at least 30 minutes before carrying out an electrochemical test. As a counter electrode, platinum wire was used. Electrochemical detection was carried out using a multi-potentiostat (CHI 1020; CH Instrument Inc., USA).
- Carbon IDA nanoelectrodes were manufactured by the procedure of above Preparation Example 1. As illustrated in
FIG. 3 , the surface of the carbon IDA nanoelectrode was functionalized using a linker and an enzyme. One comb of the carbon IDA nanoelectrodes was functionalized with glucose oxidase (GOx), while the other adjacent comb was used for collecting oxidation current of a ferrocyanide redox species. -
FIG. 7 illustrates a cyclic voltammogram in 1 mM 4-NP and 0.1 M NBu4BF4/acetonitrile solution in one comb. The irreversible reduction curve at -0.05 V in the first cycle contributed to the formation of 4-nitrophenyl radical from a diazonium salt derivative. The fact that the first irreversible curve disappears in the second scan means that the nitrophenyl group binded to the carbon surface blocks electron transfer. From the last reversible curve, it is shown that a radical anion formed by dissociation is reduced to an aryl anion on the carbon electrode surface. - The result of reducing a nitro group to an amine group in Preparation Example 2 is illustrated in
FIG. 8 . The increase in reduction current allows the nitro group to be converted to the amine group. - The amine group activating the carbon electrode was incubated with glucose oxidase using 2.5% glutaraldehyde. Finally, one of the carbon IDA nanoelectrodes was functionalized with glucose oxidase using the method of Preparation Example 2, and the adjacent electrode was used for collecting oxidation current of ferrocyanide.
- Glucose sensing was carried out in the presence of a ferricyanide redox mediator having rapid electron transfer kinetics and a stable oxidation/reduction form.
- During enzyme reaction, glucose molecules were oxidized by the flavin-adenine dinucleotide (FAD) redox key element of the glucose oxidase enzyme. In the oxidation process, FAD was reduced to FADH2(GOxred) as described in the following Reaction Formula 4. In this system, oxygen in the reaction of the Reaction Formula 5 may be replaced with ferricyanide as an alternative electron receptor. Thereafter, FADH2 was oxidized back to FAD, as [Fe(CN)6]3− was reduced to [Fe(CN)6]4− as in Reaction Formulae 6 and 7. The reaction occurred at the carbon electrode (comb 1) functionalized with glucose oxidase, whereas [Fe(CN)6]4− was oxidized back to [Fe(CN)6]3− in the electrode (comb 1) and an adjacent carbon electrode (comb 2), as illustrated in
FIG. 3 . The reaction in the final step produced measurable current in direct proportion to glucose concentration as the oxidation form of the mediator was regenerated. -
Glucose+FAD→Gluconic acid+FADH2+2H+ [Reaction Formula 4] -
FADH2+O2→FAD+H2O2 [Reaction Formula 5] -
FADH2+[Fe(CN)6]3−→FADH+[Fe(CN)6]4−+H+ [Reaction Formula 6] -
FADH2+[Fe(CN)6]3−→FADH+[Fe(CN)6]4− [Reaction Formula 7] - From the above results, redox cycling occurred between the enzyme and the two carbon IDA nanoelectrode combs. In the carbon electrode (comb 1) modified with glucose oxidase, an enzyme reaction including glucose oxidation and [Fe(CN)6]3− reduction occurred. However, in the modified carbon electrode (comb 1) and the non-modified adjacent carbon electrode (comb 2), [Fe(CN)6]4− oxidation reaction occurred. Therefore, it is recognized that both electrodes in the IDA nanoelectrodes participate in the redox cycling of ferricyanide, which contributes to impart high sensitivity in glucose detection.
- In
FIG. 9 , it is shown that as the glucose concentration increases at the two electrodes of the IDA nanoelectrodes, current increases linearly. The current incomb 2 is higher than that incomb 1, since though the distance between enzyme sites and the electrode surface area incomb 2 are longer and larger than those incomb 1, the non-modified surface incomb 2 has higher surface reactivity than that incomb 1 which is modified with multiple molecules. Therefore, it was possible to collect more current using the IDA nanoelectrodes using the carbon electrode not further modified. - Similar to the manufacturing method of the electrodes of Preparation Examples 1 and 2, nanoparticles such as gold, platinum or palladium were coated on a carbon electrode before attaching a linker using a diazonium salt thereto as in
FIG. 10 , thereby manufacturing a biosensor in which biomolecules containing glucose oxidase linked to the electrode through the nanoparticles. - As in
FIG. 11 , a stacked electron set including a suspended carbon mesh and a substrate-bound plane electrode was manufactured as a replacement for the IDA electrodes for using as a biosensor platform similar to the method described in Preparation Examples 1 and 2. For the redox mechanism and manufacturing process for the biosensing, the methods described in Preparation Examples 1 to 3 were used. - It was confirmed that the stacked electrode set manufactured as above showed good efficiency in the redox cycling, as compared with that using the IDA nanoelectrode.
- For glucose sensing, the selective diazonium modification of the suspended nanomesh was carried out by the electrochemical reductive adsorption of 4-NP as described in Preparation Example 2. Thereafter, glucose oxidase was immobilized using glutaraldehyde. As in (a) of
FIG. 12 , the plane electrode was left without any modification for redox cycling of the ferricyanide/ferrocyanide redox couple. - As a different method from that of the electrode manufactured above, as illustrated in (b) of
FIG. 12 , a method of attaching and modifying the substrate-bound plane electrode as in the method of Preparation Example 2 was used for enzyme immobilization, thereby manufacturing the electrode. - For each of (a) and (b) in
FIG. 12 , the redox couple was recycled between the enzyme and the electrode surface, and oxidation current on the electrode surface was measured, thereby measuring glucose concentration.
