Area of Science:

  • Electrochemistry
  • Biosensor Technology
  • Biochemistry

Background:

  • Triglyceride (TG) detection is crucial for diagnosing metabolic disorders.
  • Existing methods for TG quantification can be complex or time-consuming.
  • Development of sensitive and accurate biosensors for TG is an active area of research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate an iridium nano-particle modified carbon-based biosensor for triglyceride detection.
  • To optimize the biosensor's performance for TG quantification in serum samples.
  • To assess the biosensor's accuracy and potential interferences.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized an iridium nano-particle modified carbon electrode.
  • Employed electrochemical detection based on enzymatically produced NADH.
  • TG hydrolysis by lipase and subsequent oxidation of glycerol by NAD-dependent glycerol dehydrogenase.
  • Evaluated the biosensor using glyceryl tributyrate as a substrate in bovine and human serum.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a linear response for glyceryl tributyrate from 0 to 10 mM.
  • Observed a sensitivity of 7.5 nA mM(-1) in bovine serum and 7.0 nA mM(-1) in human serum.
  • Optimized conditions using a surfactant and increased incubation temperature enhanced performance.
  • Demonstrated accurate TG determination in serum, simulating blood detection with sunflower seed oil.

Conclusions:

  • The iridium nano-particle modified biosensor provides a simple and accurate method for TG determination in serum.
  • The biosensor shows promise for clinical applications in TG level monitoring.
  • Further optimization could enhance sensitivity and reduce interference for broader applicability.
