title: Development of a cytochrome c-based screen-printed biosensor for the determination of the antioxidant capacity of orange juices.
abstract: This paper describes the development of an amperometric cytochrome c (cyt c)-based biosensor and its later application to the quantification of the scavenging capacity of antioxidants. The enzymatic biosensor was constructed by covalently co-immobilizing both cyt c and XOD on a mercaptoundecanol/mercaptoundecanoic acid (MU/MUA) mixed self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-modified screen-printed gold electrode. The applicability of this method was shown by analyzing the antioxidant capacity of pure substances, such as ascorbic acid and Trolox, and natural sources of antioxidants, particularly 5 orange juices.
