Abstract

A penicillin sensor for the rapid determination of penicillin G was developed. The basic element of this biosensor is a hydrogen ion-sensitive field effect transistor (pH-FET). The pH-sensitive surface of this device is modified with an immobilized penicillin amidase membrane layer. The penicillin FETs have a response time below 90 s, a useful operating range of 0.3-30 mM penicillin G and a long-term stability at room temperature of up to 100 days. The effects of various parameters (pH, concentration of the buffer, temperature, stirring of the analyte) on the sensor signal are described. Additional studies on the dissolved enzyme and on the enzyme membrane layers immobilized on wafer samples proved the good long-term stability of the biochemical component used for sensor construction. The application of the penicillin G sensor to bioprocess monitoring is briefly discussed.
