Electrochemical Analysis and Applications

Biosensors for the determination of sugars were constructed using oligosaccharide dehydrogenase (ODH) and soluble phenazine methosulfate (PMS) or an osmium-based three-dimensional redox hydrogel. In the latter case the enzyme and poly(1-vinylimidazole) complexed with osmium (4,4′-dimethylbpy)2Cl were cross-linked with poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether. Both electrode configurations showed similar sensitivities for glucose in the range between 8 and 21 μAmM−1 cm−2. The responses for 10 mono and oligosaccharides were studied. There was no response for fructose. In the concentration range 0.1–20 mM the relative sensitivities were determined for arabinose (96%), xylose (3%), mannose (50%), galactose (11%), glucose (100%), maltose (24%), lactose (12%), cellobiose (34%) and maltotriose (10%).
