Abstract
- A biocompatible nanocomposite film was fabricated for hemoglobin (Hb) molecules immobilization. This film consists of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), 1‐pyrenebutanoic acid, succinimidyl ester (PASE), hemoglobin (Hb) and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs). Herein, PASE molecules physically adsorbed onto MWNTs, and its groups then covalently bond with Hb. AuNPs were then linked with Hb/PASE/MWNTs via electrostatic adsorption force. UV‐visible adsorption spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectra, scanning electron microscope and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy have characterized the film. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) scans showed that in the film Hb has well‐defined redox reaction, with the formal potential (E°) at about −0.27 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). Herein, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was employed to electrochemically detect the Hb in the film with a detection limit of 9.3×10−8M. The proposed method was also succeeded for Hb detection in clinical blood samples. Furthermore, the Hb in the film showed good electrocatalytic activities to the reduction of H2O2, TCA, NaNO2and O2.
