We fabricated an electrochemical detector (ECD) to catalyze redox reaction efficiently by electrodepositing Prussian blue (PB) on the indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) and amperometric method were used. We investigated the PB surface properties by topography from atomic force microscopy (AFM). Also PB film thickness calibration with respect to deposition time and voltage was used to get better PB surFace. The PB thin film of dense and smooth surface could catalyze redox reaction efficiently. Comparing with CE-ECD microchip using bare-lTO electrode, proposed CE-ECD microchip using PB deposited electrode has shown better sensitivity by determining the detected peak current from the electropherograms while the concentration of tested analyzes was maintained the same. It is verified that detection limit can be lowered for 0.01 mM of dopamine and catechol respectively.

We studied electrochemical detection of Botulinum neurotoxin, Vaccinia virus, and Streptococcus Pneumoniae based on nanogap device. Target bio substances were employed as representative targets of protein, virus, and bacteria, respectively. Redox current generated by ferri/ferrocyanide as an electroactive probe was enhanced according to gap distance which was controlled by surface-catalyzed chemical deposition. We found that enhanced electrochemical signal leads more sensitive signal changes according to selective interaction of target and its complementary elements on the electrode or gap area. In case of Botulinum neurotoxin, the redox signal showed a time-dependent increase due to cleavage of the immobilized peptide which blocked redox cycling. Redox cycling was also hindered by Vaccinia virus and Streptococcus Pneumoniae which were selectively immobilized in the gap area.

Five-channel electrochemical chips were fabricated based on the Micro-electromechanical System (MEMS) technology and were used as platforms to develop DNA arrays. Different kinds of thiolated DNA strands, whose sequences were related to white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) gene, were separately immobilized onto different working electrodes to fabricate a combinatorial biosensor system. As a result, different kinds of target DNA could be analyzed on one chip via a simultaneous recognition process using potassium ferricyanide as an indicator. To perform quantitative target DNA detection, a limit of 70 nM (S/N=3) was found in the presence of 600 nM coexisting noncomplementary ssDNA. The real samples of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) products were detected by the proposed method with satisfactory result, suggesting that the multichannel chips had the potential for a high effective microdevice to recognize specific gene sequence for pointof-care applications.

Platinum is a well known element which shows a significant electrocatalytic activity in many important applications. In glucose sensor, because of the poisoning effect of reaction intermediates and the low surface area, the electrocatalytic activity towards the glucose oxidation is low which cause the low sensitivity. So, we fabricate a nanoporous PtZn alloy electrode by deposition-dissolution method. It provides a high active surface and a large enzyme encapsulating space per unit area when it used for an enzymatic glucose sensor. Glucose oxidase was immobilized on the electrode surface by capping with PEDOT composite and PPDA. The composite and PPDA also can exclude the interference ion such as ascorbic acid and uric acid to improve the selectivity. The surface area was determined by cyclic voltametry method and the surface structure and the element were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), respectively. The sensitivity is $13.5{\mu}A/mM\;cm^2$. It is a remarkable value with such simply prepared senor has high selectivity.

전기화학적 증착 기법을 이용하여 간단하고 빠르게 3차원적 구조를 가지는 다공성 금 박막(NPGF : nanoporous gold thin film)을 금 기판 위에 제작하였다. 제작된 3차원적 구조의 NPGF는 주사 전자 현미경(SEM)을 이용하여 표면을 분석하였고, 이를 통하여 표면상에 30~50 nm 크기의 균일한 다공성 박막이 생성되었음을 확인하였다. Differential pulse voltammetry(DPV) 기법을 기반으로 3차원적 구조체를 가진 NPGF기판을 전극으로 사용하여 GABA를 농도별($10{\sim}100{\mu}M$)로 측정하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 방법은 향후, 바이오센서 응용분야에 널리 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, we synthesized a biocatalyst consisting of glucose oxidase (GOx), polyethyleneimine (PEI) and carbon nanotube (CNT) with addition of glutaraldehyde (GA)(GA/[GOx/PEI/CNT])for fabrication of glucose sensor. Main bonding of the GA/[GOx/PEI/CNT] catalyst was formed by crosslinking of functional end groups between GOx/PEI and GA. Catalytic activity of GA/[GOx/PEI/CNT] was quantified by UV-Vis and electrochemical measurements. As a result of that, high immobilization ratio of 199% than other catalyst (with only physical adsorption) and large sensitivity value of $13.4{\mu}A/cm^2/mM$ was gained. With estimation of the biosensor stability, it was found that the GA/[GOx/PEI/CNT] kept about 88% of its initial activity even after three weeks. It shows GA minimized the loss of GOx and improved sensing ability and stability compared with that using other biocatalysts.

Laccase could be successfully assembled on an amine-derivatized platinum electrode by glutaraldehyde coupling. The enzyme layer formed on the surface does not communicate electron directly with the electrode, but the enzymatic activity of the surf ace could be followed by electrochemical detection of enzymatically oxidized products. The well-known laccase substrates, ABTS (2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)) and PPD (p-phenylenediamine) were used. ABTS can be detected down to 0.5 ${\mu}M$ with linear response up to 15 ${\mu}M$ and current sensitivity of 75 nA/ ${\mu}M.$ PPD showed better response with detection limit of 0.05 ${\mu}M$, linear response up to 20 ${\mu}M$, and current sensitivity of 340 nA/ ${\mu}M$ with the same electrode. The sensor responses fit well to the Michaelis-Menten equation and apparent $K_M$ values are 0.16 mM for ABTS and 0.055 mM for PPD, which show the enzymatic reaction is the rate-determining step. The laccase electrode we developed is very stable and more than 80% of initial activity was still maintained after 2 months of uses.

An amperometric biosensor based on carbon paste electrodes (CPEs) for the determination of urea was constructed by enzyme (urease/GL-DH)-modified method. Urea was hydrolyzed to ${NH_4}^+$ by catalyzing urease onto the enzyme-modified electrode surface in sample solution. In the presence of ${\alpha}$-ketoglutarate and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NADH), a liberated ${NH_4}^+$ produce to L-glutamate and $NAD^+$ by Lglutamate dehydrogenase (GL-DH). After the chemical reaction was proceeded, the electrochemical reaction was occurred that an excess of the NADH was oxidized to $NAD^+$. The oxidation current of NADH was monitored at +1.10 volt vs. Ag/AgCl. An optimum conditions of biosensor were investigated: The optimum pH range for catalyzed hydrolysis reaction of urea was pH 7.0-7.4. The linear response range and detection limit were $2.0\;{\times}\;10^{-5}{\sim}2.0\;{\times}\;10^{-4}M\;and\;5.0\;{\times}\;10^{-6}M$, respectively. Another physiological species did not interfere, except L-ascorbic acid.

Structually organized mono- and multilayers were developed on gold for the catalytic and affinity biosensing using hyper-branched dendrimers. For the catalytic biosensing interface, a new approach to construct a multilayered enzyme film on the electrode surface was developed. The film was prepared by layer-by-layer depositions of dendrimers and periodate-oxidized glucose oxidase. The voltammograms obtained from the GOx/dendrimer multilayered electrodes revealed that bioelectrocatalytic response is directly correlated to the number of deposited bilayers. From the analysis of voltammetric and ellipsometric signals, the coverage of active enzyme per layer during the layering steps was estimated, demonstrating the spatially-ordered multilayer formation. As an extension of the study, dendrimers having various degrees of ferrocenyl modification were prepared and used. The resulting electrodes were electrochemically characterized, and the density of ferrocenyl groups, active enzyme coverage, and sensitivity were estimated. For the affinity-sensing surrface, a biosensor system based on avidin-biotin interaction was developed. As the building block of affinity monolayer, G4 dendrimer having partial ferrocenyl-tethered surface groups was prepared and used. And the biotinylated and electroactive dendritic monolayer was used for the affinity-sensing surface interacting with avidin. Electrochemical characterization of the resulting biosensor was conducted using free enzyme in electrolyte in terms of degree of surface coverage with avidin and subsequent surface shielding.
