Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrochemistry
  • Biosensors

Background:

  • Biosensors are crucial for detecting environmental pollutants.
  • Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) offer unique electrochemical properties for biosensor development.
  • Polyphenols, like catechol, require sensitive detection methods in water.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To fabricate a novel polyphenol biosensor using CNFs and laccase.
  • To evaluate the electrochemical performance of the developed biosensor for catechol detection.
  • To assess the biosensor's applicability in real-world water sample analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) synthesized via electrospinning and carbonization.
  • Biosensor fabrication by blending CNFs with laccase and Nafion.
  • Characterization using Raman spectroscopy, FTIR, and FE-SEM.
  • Electrochemical analysis via cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry.

Main Results:

  • High sensitivity (41 µA·mM⁻¹) and low detection limit (0.63 µM) for catechol.
  • Rapid response time (< 2 seconds) and wide linear range (1–1310 µM).
  • Excellent repeatability, reproducibility, stability, and interference tolerance.

Conclusions:

  • The developed CNF-laccase biosensor exhibits superior performance compared to existing laccase-based biosensors.
  • This novel biosensor shows significant potential for accurate and efficient catechol detection in environmental water samples.
