Amperometric acetylcholine biosensor based on self-assembly of gold nanoparticles and acetylcholinesterase on the sol-gel/multi-walled carbon nanotubes/choline oxidase composite-modified platinum electrode.
A novel acetylcholinesterase (AChE)/choline oxidase (ChOx) bienzyme amperometric acetylcholine biosensor based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) has been successfully developed by self-assembly process in combination of sol-gel technique. A thiolated aqueous silica sol containing MWCNTs and ChOx was first dropped on the surface of a cleaned Pt electrode, and then AuNPs were assembled with the thiolated sol-gel network. Finally, the alternate deposition of poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and AChE was repeated to assemble different layers of PDDA-AChE on the electrode for optimizing AChE loading. Among the resulting biosensors, the biosensor based on two layers of PDDA-AChE multilayer films showed the best performance. It exhibited a wide linear range, high sensitivity and fast amperometric response, which were 0.005-0.4mM, 3.395 μA/mM, and within 15s, respectively. The biosensor showed long-term stability and acceptable reproducibility. More importantly, this study could provide a simple and effective multienzyme immobilization platform for meeting the demand of the effective immobilization enzyme on the electrode surface.
