A new bienzymatic amperometric sensor is proposed for the assay of the protein content of milk. The sensor is based on two enzymes: carboxypeptidase A and L-amino acid oxidase. The response characteristics obtained for this sensor (detection limit of 1.5 micromol/L, linear concentration range between 1.8 and 2.8 micromol/L), as well as high selectivity over possible interferences from milk, made it applicable as a detector in flow injection analysis (FIA). The response characteristics obtained in the non-equilibrium conditions (FIA system) are: detection limit of 1.5 micromol/L and linear concentration range between 2 and 3.5 micromol/L. Without FIA, the average recovery of proteins from milk and milk products is 99.06 +/- 0.07% and, by utilization of FIA, it increased to 99.73 +/- 0.03. The sensor proved a good reliability for the assay of proteins in milk and milk products.

An innovative supramolecular architecture is reported for bienzymatic glucose biosensing based on the use of a nanohybrid made of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) non-covalently functionalized with a Schiff base modified with two phenylboronic acid residues (SB-dBA) as platform for the site-specific immobilization of the glycoproteins glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The analytical signal was obtained from amperometric experiments at - 0.050 V in the presence of 5.

An amperometric bienzymatic biosensor was developed for the determination of aspartame in a flow injection analysis (FIA) system, consisting of two enzyme reactor columns packed with immobilized α-chymotrypsin (CHY) and alcohol oxidase (AOX) beads and a hydrogen peroxide electrode, connected in series. The CHY and AOX were separately immobilized on glutaraldehyde (GA)-activated beads through covalent bonding. The biosensor fabrication and operational conditions were optimized.

Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter, which is located at the intersections of the nerve and muscles in the lymph nodes of the internal organs motor systems and in various parts of the central nervous system. A decrease of acetylcholine in brain is associated with Alzheimer's disease. That is why it is an important agent for this disease.

A new amperometric sensor has been fabricated for sensitive and rapid quantification of ethanol. The biosensor assembly was prepared by covalently immobilizing alcohol oxidase (AOX) from Pichia pastoris onto chemically modified surface of polyvinylchloride (PVC) beaker with glutaraldehyde as a coupling agent followed by immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), chitosan (CHIT), carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (c-MWCNTs) and nafion (Nf) nanocomposite onto the surface of Au electrode (working electrode). Owing to properties such as chemical inertness, light weight, weather resistance, corrosion resistance, toughness and cost-effectiveness, PVC membrane has attracted a growing interest as a support for enzyme immobilization in the development of biosensors.

Monitoring of organic acids (OA) and volatile fatty acids (VFA) is crucial for the control of anaerobic digestion. In case of unstable process conditions, an accumulation of these intermediates occurs. In the present work, two different enzyme-based biosensor arrays are combined and presented for facile electrochemical determination of several process-relevant analytes.
