Phenolic compounds, including phenol and simple substituted phenols, are among
the major hazardous pollutants persistent in industrial effluent that may harm human
health and aquatic life. Owing to their toxicity, there are numerous quantitative
methods that are implemented for the determination of phenolic compounds based
on chromatographic and spectrophotometric analysis. However, these methods are
inconvenient for on-site and in situ analysis for field application. Alternatively,
enzymatic biosensor has been explored as an excellent devices for determination of
phenol in the environment and industrial wastewater. In this research work, two
tyrosinase (Tyr) biosensor based on cetyl trimethylammonium bromide funtionalized
cellulose nanocrystals (CTAB-CNCs) decorated with mercaptopropionic acidcapped
cadmium sulfide quantum dots (MPA-CdS QDs) and mercaptopropionic
acid-capped iron oxide (MPA-Fe3O4) nanoparticles for determination of phenol was
developed.
Initially, CTAB-CNCs/MPA-CdS QDs nanocomposite suspension drop coated onto
working electrode of SPCE, and dried at room temperature for 3h. The same
procedure was applied for the preparation of CTAB-CNCs/MPA-Fe3O4
nanocomposite. Next, 7 μL of Tyr were drop casted onto the surface of working
electrode consisting CTAB-CNCs/MPA-QDs nanocomposite film. This modified
bioelectrode was named as Tyr/CTAB-CNCs/MPA-CdS QDs/SPCE. For
comparison, the bioelectrode of Tyr/CTAB-CNCs/MPA-Fe3O4/SPCE was also
fabricated using the same protocol. In brief, CNCs was chosen as the solid support for enzyme immobilization prior to
their special properties of low cytotoxicity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and
environmentally benign. However, CNCs has poor electrical conductivity. Thus,
CNCs has been coupled with QDs and Fe3O4 to enhance the conductivity. Both QDs
and Fe3O4 comprises inherent electrochemical properties, cost effectiveness, low
toxicity, and environmental friendly and facile synthesis. Hence, the nanocomposites
build a synergetic effect for appropriate sensitivity and stability for biosensors.
Under the optimal conditions, the Tyr/CTAB-CNCs/MPA-CdS QDs biosensor
exhibits good linearity towards phenol in the concentration range of 5 to 40 μM
(R2 = 0.985) with sensitivity and limit of detection (LOD) of 0.113 μA/μM and
0.082 μM, respectively. Meanwhile, the Tyr/CTAB-CNCs/MPA-Fe3O4 biosensor
revealed a good linearity towards phenol concentration ranging from 0.010 to 0.075
μM (R2 = 0.985) with sensitivity and LOD of 32.219 μA/μM and 0.00076 μM,
respectively. |
