This study presents a novel biosensor for sensitive adrenaline detection. The developed electrochemical sensor achieves low detection limits, enabling analysis in biological samples like rabbit heart effluent.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Electrochemistry
  • Biosensor Technology

Background:

  • Adrenaline (epinephrine) analysis is crucial in physiological and pharmacological research.
  • Existing methods for adrenaline detection often lack sensitivity or require complex sample preparation.
  • Development of highly sensitive and rapid biosensors is needed for subnanomolar concentration analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and characterize a novel electrochemical biosensor for the sensitive determination of adrenaline.
  • To achieve a low detection limit for adrenaline in the nano- and subnanomolar range.
  • To validate the biosensor's performance in analyzing adrenaline in biological samples.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a two-enzyme system with laccase and PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase.

  • Employed electrochemical detection of oxygen depletion at a platinum electrode.
  • Integrated the enzyme system within a polymer matrix in a flow cell design.

    • Main Results:

    • The biosensor demonstrated effective adrenaline determination in the nano- and subnanomolar range.
    • A flow cell design ensured excellent baseline stability and rapid sensor recovery.
    • An improved polymer matrix design led to a significantly lower detection limit of 200 pmol/l for adrenaline.
    • Successfully applied the sensor to analyze adrenaline in effluent from isolated rabbit hearts.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed electrochemical biosensor offers high sensitivity and rapid detection of adrenaline.
    • The analyte-recycling enzyme system and optimized design contribute to improved performance.
    • This biosensor is a promising tool for precise adrenaline quantification in complex biological matrices.
