In present work, we employed gold nanorods for electrochemical sensing of bilirubin. A new method is developed by using covalently immobilized bilirubin oxidase (BOx) on gold nanorods and employed gold microelectrode. The sensing interface materials were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The optimum response was observed at pH 7 and 35 ºC. The linear working range of the biosensor is 0.01 -500 µM. Fabricated sensing technology showed good evaluation parameters like precision (2.2 % and 3.2 %) and analytical recovery (98.2 % and 97.4 %). Bilirubin biosensor can be employed for early detection of bilirubin in blood serum to check jaundice,hyperbilirubinia and physiologic jaundice in infants.

A polyphenol oxidase (PPO) was immobilized by employing magnetic nanoparticles-zinc oxide/zinc hexacyanoferrate (Fe3O4NP-ZnO/ZnHCF) hybrid film electrodeposited on the surface of Pt electrode. The surface functionalization of Fe3O4NP-ZnO/ZnHCF hybrid film was characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) before and after immobilization of PPO. The biosensor exhibited optimum response within 4s at pH 7.0 and 35°C and linearity in the range 0.04 to 10000 μM for acetaminophen with a detection limit of 0.04 μM (S/N=3). Accuracy of the proposed sensor was found to be 99%. The use of Fe3O4NP/ZnO/ZnOHCF for construction of amperometric acetaminophen biosensor has resulted into relatively rapid response, higher sensitivity, broad linear range, lower detection limit, good reproducibility and long term stability of this biosensor. This sensing interface provides better avenue for the fabrication of various sensor.
