[Study of immobilization and properties of urease for creation of a biosensor based on semiconductor structures].
Many-sided investigations of urease immobilization methods were carried out to create the biosensor devices on the base of semiconductor structures. Special attention was concentrated on the biomembrane formation by means of urease and bovine serum albumin (BSA) cross-linking by gaseous glutaraldehyde. Optimal conditions for the formation process were selected which preserve about 20% of total urease activity after the cross-linking. The properties of enzyme immobilized by the above-mentioned method have been comprehensively studied. They included the urease activity dependence on pH, ionic strength, incubation buffer capacity as well as the enzyme stability during its functioning, storing and thermoinactivation. As was shown, for immobilized ureas Km value for urea at pH 7.0 and 20 degrees C is 1.65 time less than for free enzyme. In the presence of EDTA (1 mM) the enzyme activity in the biomembrane is practically unchanged under a month storing. Biomembrane possesses good adhesion to silicon surface and its swelling level under different conditions does not exceed 35%. The conclusion is made about the prospects of the used method of biomembrane formation for biosensor technology based on semiconductor structures.
