Development of Redox-Active Lyotropic Lipid Cubic Phases for Biosensing Platforms.

ABSTRACT: Enzyme-based electrochemical biosensors play an important role in point-of-care diagnostics for personalized medicine. For such devices, lipid cubic phases (LCP) represent an attractive method to immobilize enzymes onto conductive surfaces with no need for chemical linking. However, research has been held back by the lack of effective strategies to stably co-immobilize enzymes with a redox shuttle that enhances the electrical connection between the enzyme redox center and the electrode. In this study, we show that a monoolein (MO) LCP system doped with an amphiphilic redox mediator (ferrocenylmethyl)dodecyldimethylammonium bromide (Fc12) can be used for enzyme immobilization to generate an effective biosensing platform. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) showed that MO LCP can incorporate
