A SiO2 Hybrid Enzyme-Based Biosensor with Enhanced Electrochemical Stability for Accuracy Detection of Glucose

Abstract

A novel enzyme-based biosensor for glucose detection is successfully developed using layer-by-layer assembly technology. The introduction of commercially available SiO2 was found to be a facile way to improve overall electrochemical stability. After 30 CV cycles, the proposed biosensor could retain 95% of its original current. The biosensor presents good detection stability and reproducibility with the detection concentration range of 1.96 × 10−9 to 7.24 × 10−7 M. This study demonstrated that the hybridization of cheap inorganic nanoparticles was a useful method in preparing high-performance biosensors with a much lower cost.
