Lactate Biosensor Based on Hydrotalcite-Like Compounds: Performances and Application to Serum Samples

摘要

A lactate biosensor based on lactate oxidase supported onto a hydrotalcite, electrochemically deposited on a platinum surface, was developed for the first time. For the best electrode configuration, a linear response up to 0.8 mM, with a limit of detection of 14 mu M and a sensitivity of 9 mA M-1 cm(-2), was obtained. The influence of some interferents due to the oxidation of hydrogen peroxide (at +0.35 V vs. SCE) was also studied. By controlling carefully the experimental conditions, the determination of lactate in a commercial serum sample in the presence of interferents was successfully accomplished.
