    This study presents a new amperometric glucose sensor using mediated electron transfer for improved stability. The sensor shows promise for accurate glucose monitoring in diabetic patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Electrochemistry
    • Biosensors

    Background:

    • Diabetes mellitus management requires continuous glucose monitoring.
    • Existing glucose sensors face challenges with oxygen dependency and stability.
    • Amperometric biosensors offer a potential solution for accurate glucose detection.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a novel, potentially implantable amperometric glucose sensor.
    • To investigate the use of 1,1'-dimethylferrocene as a mediator for enhanced sensor performance.
    • To assess the sensor's accuracy and stability for glucose measurement.

    Main Methods:

    • Construction of amperometric glucose sensors utilizing immobilized glucose oxidase and a graphite electrode.
    • Employing 1,1'-dimethylferrocene as a redox mediator under potentiostatic control.

  • In vitro testing with varying glucose concentrations and analysis of plasma samples.

    • Main Results:

    • The sensor demonstrated linear current responses to glucose up to 20 mmol/l.
    • A mean response time of 68 seconds was observed.
    • The sensor showed significant correlation with a reference laboratory analyzer, despite proportionally lower readings.
    • 17% of electrodes exhibited low drift over 17 hours at 37°C.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed amperometric glucose sensor offers a stable and potentially implantable solution.
    • The use of 1,1'-dimethylferrocene mitigates issues related to oxygen tension fluctuations.
    • Further in vivo testing and miniaturization are warranted for clinical application.
