Electrical wiring of Pseudomonas putida and Pseudomonas fluorescens with osmium redox polymers.

Two different flexible osmium redox polymers; poly(1-vinylimidazole)12-[Os-(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-di'pyridyl)2Cl2](2+/+) (osmium redox polymer I) and poly(vinylpyridine)-[Os-(N,N'-methylated-2,2'-biimidazole)3](2+/3+) (osmium redox polymer II) were investigated for their ability to efficiently "wire" Pseudomonas putida ATCC 126633 and Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. putida DSM 6521), which are well-known phenol degrading organisms, when entrapped onto cysteamine modified gold electrodes. The two Os-polymers differ in redox potential and the length of the side chains, where the Os(2+/3+)-functionalities are located. The bacterial cells were adapted to grow in the presence of phenol as the sole source of organic carbon. The performance of the redox polymers as mediators was investigated for making microbial sensors. The analytical characteristics of the microbial sensors were evaluated for determination of catechol, phenol and glucose as substrates in both batch analysis and flow analysis mode.

Graphite epoxy composite electrodes modified with bacterial cells.

The modification of a graphite-epoxy composite electrode (GECE) with bacterial cells along with an analytical application are presented. Pseudomonas putida DSM 50026 was used as a biological component and the measurement was based on the respiratory activity of the cells. The optimization of working conditions of resulting biosensor (including pH and temperature) was conducted and the limit of detection was calculated as 7 microM phenol based on the signal to noise ratio. Then the system was applied for xenobiotic detection. Resulting sample signals were found to be very similar with the standard solutions having the same concentration while the recoveries of the spiked samples were close to 100%.

Effects of mediators on the laccase biosensor response in paracetamol detection.

An enzyme electrode suitable for paracetamol detection was developed by immobilizing laccase on a dissolved-oxygen probe surface. The immobilization procedure was achieved by means of gelatin, which was then cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. The measurement was based on the detection of oxygen consumption in relation to analyte oxidation. The optimum experimental conditions for the biosensor were investigated and the system was calibrated for paracetamol. Also the effects of three different mediators, namely HBT (1-hydroxybenzotriazole), VLA [violuric acid (5-isonitrosobarbituric acid)] and TEMPO (2,2',6,6'-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl radical) were tested for the biosensor's response. As a result, it was observed that HBT has a remarkable effect on the signal by providing more oxygen consumption during the enzymatic reaction. A linear relationship between sensor responses and analyte concentrations was obtained over the concentration range 2.0-15.0 microM, whereas, in the presence of the mediator HBT, this range became 0.5-3.0 microM.
