A novel automated biosensor system uses immobilized microbial cells and flow-through electrodes to measure oxygen consumption for analyte detection. This system efficiently determines biological oxygen demand using Rhodococcus erythropolis and Issatchenkia orientalis.

Area of Science:

  • Biosensors
  • Electrochemistry
  • Microbiology

Background:

  • Automated analytical systems are crucial for efficient biological oxygen demand (BOD) determination.
  • Whole-cell biosensors offer a sensitive method for detecting various analytes based on microbial metabolism.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and characterize an automated whole-cell biosensor system for analyte quantification.
  • To integrate immobilized microbial cells with flow-through electrochemical detection.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a flow-through system incorporating immobilized microbial cells (Rhodococcus erythropolis, Issatchenkia orientalis) on cellulose-acetate membranes.
  • Utilized screen-printed thick-film platinum electrodes in a 3-electrode configuration within a sandwich flow-through cell (36 µL volume).
