title: Simultaneous monitoring of glucose and lactate by an interference and cross-talk free dual electrode amperometric biosensor based on electropolymerized thin films.
abstract: An interference and cross-talk free dual electrode amperometric biosensor integrated with a microdialysis sampling system is described, for simultaneous monitoring of glucose and lactate by flow injection analysis. The biosensor is based on a conventional thin layer flow-through cell equipped with a Pt dual electrode (parallel configuration). Each Pt disk was modified by a composite bilayer consisting of an electrosynthesised overoxidized polypyrrole (PPYox) anti-interference membrane covered by an enzyme entrapping gel, obtained by glutaraldehyde co-crosslinking of glucose oxidase or lactate oxidase with bovine serum albumin. The advantages of covalent immobilization techniques were coupled with the excellent interference-rejection capabilities of PPYox. Ascorbate, cysteine, urate and paracetamol produced lactate or glucose bias in the low micromolar range; their responses were, however, completely suppressed when the sample was injected through the microdialysis unit. Under these operational conditions the flow injection responses for glucose and lactate were linear up to 100 and 20 mM with typical sensitivities of 9.9 (+/- 0.1) and 7.2 (+/- 0.1) nA/mM. respectively. The shelf-lifetime of the biosensor was at least 2 months. The potential of the described biosensor was demonstrated by the simultaneous determination of lactate and glucose in untreated tomato juice samples; results were in good agreement with those of a reference method.
