Enzyme Nanosheet-Based Electrochemical Aspartate Biosensor for Fish Point-of-Care Applications.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial infections in marine fishes are linked to mass mortality issues; hence, rapid detection of an infection can contribute to achieving a faster diagnosis using point-of-care testing. There has been substantial interest in identifying diagnostic biomarkers that can be detected in major organs to predict bacterial infections. Aspartate was identified as an important biomarker for bacterial infection diagnosis in olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) fish. To determine aspartate levels, an amperometric biosensor was designed based on bi-enzymes, namely, glutamate oxidase (GluOx) and aspartate transaminase (AST), which were physisorbed on copolymer reduced graphene oxide (P-rGO), referred to as enzyme nanosheets (GluOx-ASTENs). The GluOx-ASTENs were drop casted onto a Prussian
