[Electrochemical sensor based on photopolymeric membranes for determining urea].
A new electrochemical enzymatic sensor based on the ion selective field effect transistors (ISFETs) and photocurable membrane was developed for the determination of urea. For the immobilization of urease on the gate surface of the ISFET a simple method, involving the use of liquid photocurable compositions on the basis of vinylpirollidone, oligouretanemetacrylate and oligocarbonatemetacrylate, was applied. The linearange of the response of the developed electrochemical sensor lies in the range 0.05-20 mM. The latter corresponds to the claims of the medical practice. The overall time of the analysis is 5-10 min. The effects of the buffer concentration and its pH as well as temperature and presence of ammonia ions in the measuring medium on the amplitude of the sensor response were estimated. The duration of sensor work is as shortest 40 days. The proposed sensor on the basis of the ISFET is promising for the express analysis of the level urea in blood, while the developed method of membrane preparation with entrapped enzyme can be combined with the integral technology of producing of the biosensors semiconductor transducers.
