Amperometric flow injection analysis of glucose and galactose based on engineered pyranose 2-oxidases and osmium polymers for biosensor applications
(Wiley, 2018-04-25)In the present study, wild type and three mutants of pyranose 2-oxidase (PyOx-WT, PyOx-MT1, PyOx-MT2, PyOx-MT3), which showed improved properties for D-galactose oxidation, were investigated for their oxidising ability ... -
Development of glucose-oxidising enzyme electrodes for application in glucose|oxygen powered enzymatic fuel cells
(2016-02)The objective of this thesis is to investigate different strategies for the optimisation of biocatalytic anodes with a view to developing a semi- or fully implantable, miniature, membrane-less enzymatic fuel cell via ... -
DNA hybridisation detection on chemically modified electrodes with bioelectrocatalytic amplification of signal
(2011-12-22)Electrochemical detection of DNA hybridization is a viable alternative to optical and radio-labelled techniques. The benefits of using biosensors based on electrochemical systems are: high sensitivity, possible development ... -
Effect of individual plasma components on the performance of a glucose enzyme electrode based on redox polymer mediation of a flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent glucose dehydrogenase
(Elsevier, 2019-02-11)The performance of glucose enzyme electrodes, consisting of crosslinked flavin adenine dinucleotide glucose dehydrogenase (FADGDH), an osmium redox polymer and multi-walled carbon nanotubes on graphite electrodes, was ... -
Generation of a panel of high affinity antibodies and development of a biosensor-based immunoassay for the detection of okadaic acid in shellfish
(Elsevier, 2015-07-10)Okadaic acid (OA) and its derivatives, DTX-1 and DTX-2, are marine biotoxins associated with diarrhetic shellfish poisoning. Routine monitoring of these toxins relies on the mouse bioassay. However, due to the technical ... -
Recent advances in the development of nucleic acid diagnostics
(2010)Since the early 1970s, the use of nucleic acid sequences for specific diagnostic applications has followed a somewhat linear pattern of development. Early methods for restriction enzyme digestion, as well as reverse ...
