The functionalisation of solid electrodes with thin films of biocompatible materials revealed very attractive for the development of biosensors on miniaturized platforms, since this configuration could provide a rapid translation of the biological processes occurring on the surface to electronic outputs. In this study, the realization of functionalised TiO2 thin films on Si substrates for the immobilization of several enzymes and biological molecules is reported. Deposition parameters were found to affect the chemical and microstructural features of the films, which influenced the protein immobilization. Glucose oxidase and horseradish peroxidase immobilized onto TiO2-based nanostructured surfaces exhibited a pair of well-defined and quasi-reversible voltammetric peaks. The electron exchange between the enzyme and the electrodes was greatly enhanced in the TiO2 nanostructured environment. The electrocatalytic activity of HRP and GOD embedded in TiO2 electrodes toward H2O2 and glucose, respectively, may have a potential perspective in the fabrication of third-generation biosensors based on direct electrochemistry of enzymes.
