Flow-injection glucose determination with long-wavelength luminescent oxygen probes.
A flow-injection method for the determination of glucose in serum is presented. It is based on the enzymatic measurement of oxygen consumption detected via oxygen quenching of the luminescence of certain metalloporphyrins. Phosphorescent water-soluble Pt2+ and Pd(2+)-porphyrins have been characterized by luminescence spectroscopy and decay-time measurements in various buffers, and found to be suitable for oxygen detection in biological systems. A new method for the flow-injection analysis of glucose has been developed based on the use of a column of immobilized glucose oxidase and the indicators Pt(2+)-coproporphyrin III and Pd(2+)-coproporphyrin I. The system has been optimized for glucose determination in aqueous samples and in whole serum with the 0.5-200 mM glucose range. Twenty assays can be performed in an hour, and the system has potential for commercial development with biotechnological and medical applications.
