Electrochemical Biosensor for Naphthalene Acetic Acid in Fruits and Vegetables Based on Lipid Films with Incorporated Auxin-binding Protein Receptor Using Graphene Electrodes

摘要

The present work describes a miniaturized potentiometric naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) sensor on graphene nanosheets with incorporated lipid films. Auxin-binding protein 1 receptor immobilized on the stabilized lipid films provided adequate selectivity for detection over a wide range of hormone concentrations, fast response time of ca. 5 min, and detection limit of 10 nM. The proposed sensor is easy to construct and exhibits good reproducibility, reusability, selectivity, long shelf life and high sensitivity of ca. 56 mV/decade of hormone concentration. The reliability of the biosensor was successfully evaluated using a wide range of NAA-spiked fruits and vegetables.
