Lin Y, Ma Y, Ye J. A modified Prussian blue biosensor with improved stability based on the use of self-assembled monolayers and polydopamine for quantitative L-glutamate detection. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:207. [PMID: 38499896 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-024-06295-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024]
Abstract
A miniature L-glutamate (L-Glu) biosensor is described based on Prussian blue (PB) modification with improved stability by using self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) technology and polydopamine (PDA). A gold microelectrode (AuME) was immersed in NH2(CH2)6SH-ethanol solution, forming well-defined SAMs via thiol-gold bonding chemistry which increased the number of deposited Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) and confined them tightly on the AuME surface. Then, dopamine solution was dropped onto the PBNPs surface and self-polymerized into PDA to protect the PB structure from destruction. The PDA/PB/SAMs/AuME showed improved stability through CV measurements in comparison with PB/AuME, PB/SAMs/AuME, and PDA/PB/AuME. The constructed biosensor achieved a high sensitivity of 70.683 nA µM-1 cm-2 in the concentration range 1-476 µM L-Glu with a low LOD of 0.329 µM and performed well in terms of selectivity, reproducibility, and stability. In addition, the developed biosensor was successfully applied to the determination of L-Glu in tomato juice, and the results were in good agreement with that of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Due to its excellent sensitivity, improved stability, and miniature volume, the developed biosensor not only has a promising potential for application in food sample analysis but also provides a good candidate for monitoring L-Glu level in food production.

[PMID: 37622914 PMCID: PMC10452303 DOI: 10.3390/bios13080828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Revised: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
Herein, a simple method has been used in the fabrication of a microneedle electrode (MNE). To do this, firstly, a commercial self-dissolving microneedle patch has been used to make a hard-polydimethylsiloxane-based micro-pore mold (MPM). Then, the pores of the MPM were filled with the conductive platinum (Pt) paste and cured in an oven. Afterward, the MNE made of platinum (Pt-MNE) was characterized using cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). To prove the electrochemical applicability of the Pt-MNE, the glutamate oxidase enzyme was immobilized on the surface of the electrode, to detect glutamate, using the cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA) methods. The obtained results demonstrated that the fabricated biosensor could detect a glutamate concentration in the range of 10-150 µM. The limits of detection (LODs) (three standard deviations of the blank/slope) were also calculated to be 0.25 µM and 0.41 µM, using CV and CA, respectively. Furthermore, the Michaelis-Menten constant (KMapp) of the biosensor was calculated to be 296.48 µM using a CA method. The proposed biosensor was finally applied, to detect the glutamate concentration in human serum samples. The presented method for the fabrication of the mold signifies a step further toward the fabrication of a microneedle electrode.

[PMID: 37334270 PMCID: PMC10273014 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1202483] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: β-Alanine is the only β-amino acid in nature; it is widely used in food additives, medicines, health products, and surfactants. To avoid pollution caused by traditional production methods, the synthesis of β-alanine has been gradually replaced by microbial fermentation and enzyme catalysis, which is a green, mild, and high-yield biosynthesis method. Methods: In this study, we constructed an Escherichia coli recombinant strain for efficient β-alanine production using glucose as the raw material. The microbial synthesis pathway of L-lysine-producing strain, Escherichia coli CGMCC 1.366, was modified using gene editing by knocking out the aspartate kinase gene, lysC. The catalytic efficiency and product synthesis efficiency were improved by assembling key enzymes with cellulosome. Results: By-product accumulation was reduced by blocking the L-lysine production pathway, thereby increasing the yield of β-alanine. In addition, catalytic efficiency was improved by the two-enzyme method to further increase the β-alanine content. The key cellulosome elements, dockerin (docA) and cohesin (cohA), were combined with L-aspartate-α-decarboxylase (bspanD) from Bacillus subtilis and aspartate aminotransferase (aspC) from E.coli to improve the catalytic efficiency and expression level of the enzyme. β-alanine production reached 7.439 mg/L and 25.87 mg/L in the two engineered strains. The β-alanine content reached 755.465 mg/L in a 5 L fermenter. Discussion: The content of β-alanine synthesized by constructed β-alanine engineering strains were 10.47 times and 36.42 times higher than the engineered strain without assembled cellulosomes, respectively. This research lays the foundation for the enzymatic production of β-alanine using a cellulosome multi-enzyme self-assembly system.

Development of an Enzymatic Biosensor Using Glutamate Oxidase on Organic-Inorganic-Structured, Electrospun Nanofiber-Modified Electrodes for Monosodium Glutamate Detection. BIOSENSORS 2023; 13:bios13040430.

Abstract
Herein, dendrimer-modified montmorillonite (Mt)-decorated poly-Ɛ-caprolactone (PCL) and chitosan (CHIT)-based nanofibers were prepared. Mt was modified with a poly(amidoamine) generation 1 (PAMAMG1) dendrimer, and the obtained PAMAMG1-Mt was incorporated into the PCL-CHIT nanofiber's structure. The PCL-CHIT/PAMAMG1-Mt nanofibers were conjugated with glutamate oxidase (GluOx) to design a bio-based detection system for monosodium glutamate (MSG). PAMAMG1-Mt was added to the PCL-CHIT backbone to provide a multipoint binding side to immobilize GluOx via covalent bonds. After the characterization of PCL-CHIT/PAMAMG1-Mt/GluOx, it was calibrated for MSG. The linear ranges were determined from 0.025 to 0.25 mM MSG using PCL-CHIT/Mt/GluOx and from 0.0025 to 0.175 mM MSG using PCL-CHIT/PAMAMG1-Mt/GluOx (with a detection limit of 7.019 µM for PCL-CHIT/Mt/GluOx and 1.045 µM for PCL-CHIT/PAMAMG1-Mt/GluOx). Finally, PCL-CHIT/PAMAMG1-Mt/GluOx was applied to analyze MSG content in tomato soup without interfering with the sample matrix, giving a recovery percentage of 103.125%. Hence, the nanofiber modification with dendrimer-intercalated Mt and GluOx conjugation onto the formed nanocomposite structures was performed, and the PCL-CHIT/PAMAMG1-Mt/GluOx system was successfully developed for MSG detection.

Effect of dendrimer-based interlayers for enzyme immobilization on a model electrochemical sensing system for glutamate. Bioelectrochemistry 2023; 152:108407.

Abstract
In this paper, we discuss dendrimer usage in enzyme-based electrochemical biosensors, particularly with respect to biomolecule loading on the sensing surface. A novel approach to design bioactive layers with immobilized enzymes for electrochemical biosensors using the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method in combination with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was presented. The gold surface was modified with linear linkers (various mercaptoalkanoic acids and aminoalkanethiols) and poly(amidoamine) dendrimers from the first- to fifth-generation. The best functionalization procedure was established by detailed SPR studies and transferred onto gold electrodes to electrochemically examine the model enzymatic reaction catalysed by glutamate oxidase. In the case of the chronoamperometric method, the determined sensitivity was 3.36 ± 0.08 μA∙mM-1, and the low limit of detection (LOD) was 1.52 μM. Comparing the sensitivity and LOD obtained for CV measurements, the values of these parameters were 2.5 times higher and 4 times lower, respectively, for the fourth-generation dendrimer-based biosensor and the biosensor with a linear linker. The positive impact of the dendrimer interlayer on the long-term enzyme activity was also confirmed. The research results indicate the possibility of a significant increase in the sensor response using the dendrimer itself without enriching it with electrochemical components.
