We have proposed a polyion-based enzymatic membrane to develop an acetylcholine (ACh) imaging sensor for neural cell-activity observations. In this study, a CCD-type ACh-imaging sensor and a LAPS-type ACh-imaging sensor were fabricated and the prospect of both sensors was clarified by making a comparison of their basic characteristics.}, language = {en} } @article{BohrnStuetzFleischeretal.2013, author = {Bohrn, Ulrich and St{\"u}tz, Evamaria and Fleischer, Maximilian and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Wagner, Patrick}, title = {Using a cell-based gas biosensor for investigation of adverse effects of acetone vapors in vitro}, series = {Biosensors and Bioelectronics. 40 (2013), H. 1}, journal = {Biosensors and Bioelectronics. 40 (2013), H. 1}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {0956-5663}, pages = {393 -- 400}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{BaeckerRakowskiPoghossianetal.2013, author = {B{\"a}cker, Matthias and Rakowski, D. and Poghossian, Arshak and Biselli, Manfred and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Chip-based amperometric enzyme sensor system for monitoring of bioprocesses by flow-injection analysis}, series = {Journal of Biotechnology}, volume = {163}, journal = {Journal of Biotechnology}, number = {4}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0168-1656}, doi = {10.1016/j.jbiotec.2012.03.014}, pages = {371 -- 376}, year = {2013}, abstract = {A microfluidic chip integrating amperometric enzyme sensors for the detection of glucose, glutamate and glutamine in cell-culture fermentation processes has been developed. The enzymes glucose oxidase, glutamate oxidase and glutaminase were immobilized by means of cross-linking with glutaraldehyde on platinum thin-film electrodes integrated within a microfluidic channel. The biosensor chip was coupled to a flow-injection analysis system for electrochemical characterization of the sensors. The sensors have been characterized in terms of sensitivity, linear working range and detection limit. The sensitivity evaluated from the respective peak areas was 1.47, 3.68 and 0.28 μAs/mM for the glucose, glutamate and glutamine sensor, respectively. The calibration curves were linear up to a concentration of 20 mM glucose and glutamine and up to 10 mM for glutamate. The lower detection limit amounted to be 0.05 mM for the glucose and glutamate sensor, respectively, and 0.1 mM for the glutamine sensor. Experiments in cell-culture medium have demonstrated a good correlation between the glutamate, glutamine and glucose concentrations measured with the chip-based biosensors in a differential-mode and the commercially available instrumentation. The obtained results demonstrate the feasibility of the realized microfluidic biosensor chip for monitoring of bioprocesses.}, language = {en} }
