Acetylcholine biosensor involving entrapment of acetylcholinesterase and poly(ethylene glycol)-modified choline oxidase in a poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogel membrane
A bienzymatic sensor for the determination of acetylcholine was prepared by physical coimmobilization of acetylcholinesterase and poly(ethylene glycol)-modified choline oxidase in a poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogel membrane obtained by a cyclic freezing-thawing process. The enzyme-modified polymer was applied on a platinum electrode to form an amperometric sensor, based on the electrochemical detection of enzymatically developed hydrogen peroxide. The analytical characteristics of this sensor, including calibration curves for choline and acetylcholine, pH, and temperature effects, and stability an described.
