Abstract

In this study, a new amperometric biosensor based on immobilized uricase was developed for the determination of uric acid. Polypyrrole-p-toluene sulphonate film was prepared on the surface of a platinum (Pt) electrode by electropolymerization of pyrrole in the presence of p-toluene sulphonate as an anionic dopant. Uricase enzyme were immobilized in polypyrrole-p-toluene sulphonate via the entrapment method. Determination of uric acid was performed by oxidation of enzymically generated H₂O₂ at 0.3 V. Some factors that affect response current were studied such as temperature, pH and substrate concentration. Operation stability and storage stability of the biosensor was determined. The biosensor retained 76.6% of its initial performance after 30 assays and it lost 58% of its initial performance after 60 days. Effects of interferants on the current response of the biosensor were examined. The performance of the biosensor was measured in serum of healthy individuals.
