传感器类型
电化学生物传感器
检测对象
苯甲酸(benzoic acid);样品基质:牛奶、酸奶、雪碧、可乐等食品/饮料样品及缓冲溶液
检测原理
该传感器将PPO共包埋于PAn–PAN复合膜中,PPO催化固定浓度儿茶酚氧化生成对苯醌,对苯醌在−50 mV(vs SCE)发生电化学还原,产生与酶活性相关的安培电流。苯甲酸作为竞争性抑制剂,与儿茶酚竞争PPO的儿茶酚酶活性位点,使酶催化速率下降,对苯醌生成减少,电流降低。测定无苯甲酸时电流I1和加入苯甲酸后电流I2,以抑制率Inhi%=(I1−I2)/I1×100表征苯甲酸浓度;抑制作用可逆,PBS冲洗后信号恢复。动力学分析表明Imax基本不变而Kapp M随苯甲酸增加,符合竞争性抑制,表观Ki为38 μM。
检测灵敏度
LOD: 0.2 μM (0.0244 mg L−1);线性范围: up to 20 μM;灵敏度斜率: 1.67 (% μM−1);R^2 = 0.994
效应效果
传感器对乳酸、山梨酸、柠檬酸、糖精钠和咖啡因(100 μM)的干扰为1–4%,抗坏血酸使信号增加11%。7个独立制备电极的苯甲酸测定重现性RSD为6.2%。连续30次测量活性几乎不变;4°C PBS中存储约12周响应基本不变。牛奶、酸奶、雪碧和可乐样品测定结果与HPLC官方方法一致,相对误差分别为+5.8%、+5.5%、−3.1%和+2.3%。其检出限0.2 μM(0.0244 mg/L)低于HPLC的0.5 mg/L和GC的1 mg/L。作者认为该方法快速、灵敏、操作简便,可作为传统方法替代用于食品中苯甲酸监测。

英文摘要
A novel sensitive and stable phenols amperometric biosensor, based on polyaniline-polyacrylonitrile composite matrix, was applied for determination of benzoic acid. The electrochemical biosensor functioning was based on the inhibition effect of benzoic acid on the biocatalytic activity of the polyphenol oxidase (PPO) to its substrate (catechol) in 0.1M phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.5). A potential value of -50 mV versus SCE, and a constant catechol concentration of 20 microM were selective to carry out the amperometric inhibition measurement. The kinetic parameters Michaelis-Menten constant (K(M)(app)) and maximum current (I(max)) in the absence and in the presence of benzoic acid were also evaluated and the possible inhibition mechanism was deduced. The inhibiting action of benzoic acid on the polyphenol oxidase electrode was reversible and of the typical competitive type, with an apparent inhibition constant of 38 microM. This proposed biosensor detected levels of benzoic acid as low as 2x10(-7)M in solution. In addition, the effects of temperature, pH value of solution on the inhibition and the interferences were investigated and discussed herein. Inhibition studies revealed that the proposed electrochemical biosensor was applicable for monitoring benzoic acid in real sample such as milk, yoghurt, sprite and cola.
