We investigated the use of one- and two-mediator systems in amperometric BOD biosensors (BOD, biochemical oxygen demand) based on the yeast Debaryomyces hansenii. Screening of nine mediators potentially capable of electron transfer - ferrocene, 1,1'-dimethylferrocene, ferrocenecarboxaldehyde, ferroceneacetonitrile, neutral red, 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol, thionine, methylene blue and potassium ferricyanide - showed only ferrocene and neutral red to be efficient electron carriers for the eukaryotes studied. Two-mediator systems based on combinations of the investigated compounds were used to increase the efficiency of electron transfer. The developed two-mediator biosensors exceeded their one-mediator analogs by their characteristics. The most preferable two-mediator system for developing a BOD biosensor was a ferrocene-methylene blue combination that ensured a satisfactory long-time stability (43 days), selectivity, sensitivity (the lower limit of the determined BOD concentrations, 2.5mg О/dm) and speed (assay time for one sample, not greater than 10min) of BOD determination. Analysis of water samples showed that the use of a ferrocene-methylene blue two-mediator system and the yeast D. hansenii enabled registration of data that highly correlated with the results of the standard method (R=0.9913).

Biofilms based on bacteria () and () and yeast () were used for novel biosensor creation for rapid biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) monitoring. Based on the electrochemical measurement results, it was shown that the endogenous mediator in the matrix of and biofilms and ferrocene form a two-mediator system that improves electron transport in the system. Biofilms based on and had a high biotechnological potential for BOD assessment; bioreceptors based on such biofilms had high sensitivity (the lower limits of detectable BOD concentrations were 0.

Electropolymerized thionine was used as a redox-active polymer to create a two-mediated microbial biosensor for determining biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). The electrochemical characteristics of the conducting system were studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. It has been shown that the most promising in terms of the rate of interaction with the yeast is the system based on poly(thionine), single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT), and neutral red (k = 0.

Objective: To evaluate the association between regular glucosamine intake and heart failure (HF) and to explore whether the association is mediated by relevant cardiovascular disease.
Patients And Methods: We included 479,650 participants with data available for supplement use and without HF at baseline from the UK Biobank study. Using 12 single-nucleotide polymorphisms linked to HF, a weighted genetic risk score was calculated.

This work proposes a method of forming a microorganism-mediator(s) receptor system, in which the rates of separate stages of mediator bioelectrocatalysis are used as the basis for the development of biosensors for the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) rapid assay. In the presence of a ferrocene mediator, the yeast was shown to enable oxidation of a larger range of substrates as compared with other investigated microorganisms-bacteria and yeast The rate constants of the interaction of the yeast with nine compounds, electron transfer mediators, were determined; the best mediator for these microorganisms was found to be neutral red ( = 0.681 ± 0.
