Abstract
Gluconate dehydrogenase (GADH) biosensors have been developed for the satisfactory determination of gluconic acid in wine samples, without any pretreatment. The biosensors have been fabricated by cross-linking immobilization of GADH onto screen-printed carbon electrodes, containing the mediator tetrathiafulvalene (TTF). Chronoamperograms have been registered at +100 mV vs. screen-printed Ag/AgCl electrode by successive additions of a gluconic acid solution in the concentration range from 9.0 to 131.4 μM. This method shows a reproducibility of 8.1% (n = 3) related to the slopes of these calibration curves and a repeatability of 3.2% (n = 5). The procedure has shown an average capability of detection of 9.0 μM for a probability of false positive and negative of 0.05. Wine samples have been analyzed with these biosensors, obtaining satisfactory results.
