Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] [Cross-reference to related applications] This application claims the benefit of priority based on Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0189140 filed on December 31, 2020, and all contents disclosed in the documents of this Korean patent application are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] The present invention relates to a polymer containing a pentafluorophenyl ester that is useful for immobilizing an electron transfer mediator and an oxidoreductase on the surface of an electrode in a device such as an electrochemical biosensor, and an electrochemical biosensor containing the same. [Background technology]

[0003] Diabetes is a disease that occurs when high blood sugar levels persist for a long period of time, leading to complications such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, and kidney disease. In response to high blood sugar levels, it is necessary to inject insulin to lower blood sugar levels, but if too much insulin is injected, hypoglycemia can occur, which can lead to shock or death. To prevent this, diabetic patients must continuously monitor their blood sugar levels using a blood glucose sensor to maintain appropriate blood sugar levels.

[0004] Recently, blood glucose sensors that use the Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS) have been extensively researched and commercialized. CGMS sensors are devices that are inserted into the subcutaneous tissue and continuously measure glucose levels through interstitial fluid, not blood. While it is difficult to accurately ascertain changes in blood glucose levels with fingertip blood sampling, which requires measuring blood glucose five to six times a day, CGMS has the advantage of being able to check changes and trends in blood glucose levels throughout the day. This allows patients to quickly recognize hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia, further improving their blood glucose management capabilities.

[0005] A biosensor is a device that selectively detects biological samples and converts them into specific signals. Enzyme-based biosensors using electrochemical methods are particularly popular due to their improved selectivity, miniaturization, and measurement accuracy. Electrochemical blood glucose biosensors can be broadly divided into first-generation and second-generation types. First-generation blood glucose sensors, first developed by Clark and Lyon, measure blood glucose levels based on the decrease in oxygen concentration and the change in the concentration of hydrogen peroxide generated through an enzymatic oxidation-reduction reaction. Second-generation blood glucose sensors transfer electrons generated by the enzymatic oxidation-reduction reaction to the electrode via an electron transfer mediator. Second-generation sensors have many advantages over first-generation sensors, including less error due to oxygen concentration and a more efficient and rapid electron transfer reaction via the mediator. For these reasons, second-generation sensor types, including electron transfer mediators, are used in CGMS blood glucose sensors.

[0006] Electrochemical enzyme-based blood glucose biosensors generally consist of an enzyme, an electron transfer mediator, and an electrode. First, glucose is oxidized to gluconolactone by the enzyme, then the reduced enzyme is oxidized and donates electrons to the electron transfer mediator. Next, the reduced mediator is oxidized and transfers electrons to the electrode. This series of processes allows blood glucose levels to be confirmed through an electrical signal.

[0007] The method for immobilizing an electron transfer mediator and enzyme on the electrode surface is crucial for fabricating a blood glucose sensor. Previous studies have focused on immobilizing an enzyme on the electrode by mixing a redox hydrated polymer containing an electron transfer mediator with an enzyme and adding a crosslinker. Among these, polyvinylpyridine and polyvinylimidazole are well-known as redox polymer matrices. However, as shown in Reaction Scheme 1 below, these existing redox polymers have long and complicated synthesis steps for the final material, low immobilization efficiency of transition metal complexes, and difficulty in incorporating other functionalities into the polymer. Therefore, the development of new materials that overcome the limitations of existing materials is currently required to develop redox polymers with superior performance.

[0008] Under these circumstances, the present inventors have conducted extensive research into polymers useful for immobilizing electron transfer mediators and enzymes for electrochemical biosensors. As a result, they have found that when a polymer containing pentafluorophenyl (PFP) ester is used, it has high reactivity with amine functional groups, is resistant to hydrolysis, has generally good solubility in organic solvents, and has less steric hindrance and toxicity compared to polymers with similar structures. They have confirmed that this polymer is particularly useful for insertable devices in which part of the sensor is inserted into the human body, such as continuous glucose monitoring sensors, and have thus completed the present invention. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[Means for solving the problem]

[0011] In one aspect to achieve the above object, the present invention relates to a polymer for preparing an oxidation-reduction polymer material containing a pentafluorophenyl ester, an oxidation-reduction polymer for an electrochemical biosensor comprising the polymer and a transition metal complex, a oxidation-reduction polymer thin film containing the oxidation-reduction polymer for an electrochemical biosensor prepared from the polymer, and an electrochemical biosensor, e.g., a blood glucose sensor, including the oxidation-reduction polymer thin film.

[0038] Another aspect of the present invention relates to a sensing film for an electrochemical biosensor, which comprises an enzyme capable of oxidizing and reducing a liquid biological sample and an electron transfer mediator including the transition metal complex.

[0039] Oxidoreductase is a general term for enzymes that catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions in living organisms. In the present invention, it refers to an enzyme that reacts with and reduces a target substance to be measured, such as a target substance in the case of a biosensor. The reduced enzyme reacts with an electron transfer mediator, and the target substance is quantified by measuring a signal, such as a change in current, generated during this reaction. The oxidoreductase that can be used in the present invention can be one or more enzymes selected from the group consisting of various dehydrogenases, oxidases, esterases, etc. Depending on the oxidation-reduction or target substance to be detected, an enzyme that uses the target substance as a substrate can be selected from the above enzyme group and used.

[0040] More specifically, the oxidoreductase may be one or more selected from the group consisting of glucose dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase, glucose oxidase, cholesterol oxidase, cholesterol esterase, lactate oxidase, ascorbic acid oxidase, alcohol oxidase, alcohol dehydrogenase, bilirubin oxidase, and the like.

[0041] Meanwhile, the oxidoreductase may contain a cofactor that serves to store the hydrogen removed by the oxidoreductase from the target substance (e.g., target substance) to be measured. For example, the cofactor may be one or more selected from the group consisting of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), etc.

[0042] For example, when measuring the glucose concentration in blood, glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) can be used as the oxidoreductase, and the glucose dehydrogenase can be flavin adenine dinucleotide-glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) containing FAD as a cofactor and / or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-glucose dehydrogenase containing FAD-GDH as a cofactor.

[0043] Specific examples of the usable oxidoreductase include FAD-GDH (e.g., EC 1.1.99.10, etc.), NAD-GDH (e.g., EC 1.1.1.47, etc.), PQQ-GDH (e.g., EC 1.1.5.2, etc.), glutamate dehydrogenase (e.g., EC 1.4.1.2, etc.), glucose oxidase (e.g., EC 1.1.3.4, etc.), cholesterol oxidase (e.g., EC 1.1.3.6, etc.), cholesterol esterase (e.g., EC 3.1.1.13, etc.), lactate oxidase (e.g., EC 1.1.3.2, etc.), ascorbate oxidase (e.g., EC 1.10.3.3, etc.), alcohol oxidase (e.g., EC 1.1.3.13, etc.), alcohol dehydrogenase (e.g., EC 1.1.1.1, etc.), bilirubin oxidase (e.g., EC 1.3.3.5, etc.) and the like.

[0044] Most preferably, the oxidoreductase is a glucose dehydrogenase that can maintain 70% or more of its activity in a buffer solution at 37°C for one week.

[0045] The sensing membrane according to the present invention may contain 20 to 700 parts by weight, for example, 60 to 700 parts by weight or 30 to 340 parts by weight, of the oxidation-reduction polymer based on 100 parts by weight of the oxidation-reductase. The content of the oxidation-reduction polymer can be appropriately adjusted depending on the activity of the oxidation-reductase.

[0046] Furthermore, the sensing film according to the present invention may further include carbon nanotubes to enhance the film performance. Specifically, when carbon nanotubes are used together with a transition metal complex, especially osmium, the electron transfer rate increases, thereby further enhancing the performance of the sensing film.

[0047] The sensing membrane according to the present invention may further include a cross-linking agent.

[0048] Meanwhile, the sensing membrane according to the present invention may further contain one or more additives selected from the group consisting of surfactants, water-soluble polymers, quaternary ammonium salts, fatty acids, thickeners, etc., to serve as a dispersant when dissolving the reagent, an adhesive when preparing the reagent, a stabilizer for long-term storage, etc.

[0049] The surfactant may help the composition to spread evenly and uniformly on the electrode when dispensed. The surfactant may be at least one selected from the group consisting of Triton X-100, sodium dodecyl sulfate, perfluorooctane sulfonate, sodium stearate, etc. The reagent composition according to the present invention may contain the surfactant in an amount of 3 to 25 parts by weight, e.g., 10 to 25 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the oxidoreductase, to ensure that the reagent spreads evenly and uniformly on the electrode when dispensed. For example, when an oxidoreductase with an activity of 700 U / mg is used, the surfactant may be added in an amount of 10 to 25 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the oxidoreductase. If the activity of the oxidoreductase is higher than this, the surfactant content may be adjusted to a lower amount.

[0050] The water-soluble polymer may serve as a polymer support for the reagent composition, helping to stabilize and disperse the enzyme. The water-soluble polymer may be at least one selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyperfluorosulfonate, hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), cellulose acetate, and polyamide. The reagent composition according to the present invention may contain the water-soluble polymer in an amount of 10 to 70 parts by weight, for example, 30 to 70 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the redox enzyme, to adequately and appropriately stabilize and disperse the redox enzyme. For example, when an oxidoreductase with an activity of 700 U / mg is used, the water-soluble polymer may be contained in an amount of 30 to 70 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the oxidoreductase. If the activity of the oxidoreductase is higher than this, the content of the water-soluble polymer may be adjusted to be lower than this.

[0051] The water-soluble polymer may have a weight-average molecular weight of about 2,500 g / mol to 3,000,000 g / mol, for example, about 5,000 g / mol to 1,000,000 g / mol, in order to effectively stabilize and disperse the support and enzyme.

[0052] The thickener serves to firmly attach the reagent to the electrode. Examples of the thickener include at least one selected from the group consisting of Natrosol, diethylaminoethyl-dextran hydrochloride (DEAE-Dextran hydrochloride), and the like. The electrochemical sensor according to the present invention may contain the thickener in an amount of 10 to 90 parts by weight, e.g., 30 to 90 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the oxidoreductase, to firmly attach the oxidation-reduction polymer according to the present invention to the electrode. For example, when an oxidoreductase having an activity of 700 U / mg is used, the sensor may contain 30 to 90 parts by weight of the thickener based on 100 parts by weight of the oxidoreductase. If the activity of the oxidoreductase is higher than this, the amount of the thickener may be adjusted to be lower.

[0053] In another aspect, the present invention provides a device, preferably an insertable device, such as a device insertable into the human body, that includes such an organic electron transfer mediator. The device may also preferably be an electrochemical biosensor, more preferably an electrochemical glucose (blood sugar) sensor.

[0054] Specifically, there is no limitation on the type of the electrochemical biosensor, but it may preferably be a continuous blood glucose monitoring sensor.

[0067] Example 1. Synthesis of redox polymers using PFPA polymer matrix The purpose of this experiment was to synthesize a redox polymer by reacting a pentafluorophenyl acrylate (PFPA)-based polymer matrix with an electron transfer mediator containing an amine (-NH2) group at the terminal. First, a DMA:PFPA polymer (P1) was synthesized by radical polymerization of pentafluorophenyl acrylate (PFPA) and dimethylacrylamide (DMA) in a 5:5 ratio using AIBN.

[0068] 1-1.Synthesis of Poly(N,N-dimethyl acrylamide-co-pentafluorophenyl acrylate) (P1) [ka]

[0069] [Synthesis of DMA:PFPA polymer] N,N-dimethylacrylamide (150 mg, 1.51 mmol), pentafluorophenyl acrylate (360 mg, 1.51 mmol), and azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN, 7 mg, 0.043 mmol) were placed in a glass culture tube, and acetonitrile (8 mL) was added to prepare a mixed solution. Argon gas was then bubbled through the tube for 10 minutes to create an argon atmosphere, and the mixture was then refluxed at 80°C for 12 hours. After the reaction was complete, the solvent was removed using a rotary evaporator, and CHCl was added to prepare a mixed solution. The resulting polymer was purified by slowly dropping the mixed solution into n-hexane to obtain a precipitate, which was repeated three times. The precipitate was filtered and washed with n-hexane, and the resulting polymer was dried under vacuum for at least 6 hours to obtain product P1 as a white solid. (482 mg, 95%) 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 2.81 to 3.34 ppm (br, 7H, -CH- in the backbone of PPFPA and -N(CH3)2from PDMA), 2.47 to 2.65 ppm (br, 1H, -CH- in the backbone of PDMA), 1.13 to 2.22 ppm (br, 4H, -CH2- in the backbone of PDMA and PPFPA), 19 F NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ -152.90 (br, ortho), -157.21 (br, para), -162.15 (br, meta)

[0070] The synthesized polymer showed good solubility in methanol, acetonitrile, acetone, and dichloromethane, but was completely insoluble in water and diethyl ether.

[0071] 1-2. Confirmation of whether PFPA polymer can function as a polymer matrix capable of immobilizing electron transfer mediators and GDH In order to confirm whether or not the reaction between the polymer P1 synthesized in Example 1-1 and the osmium complex 22 containing an amine group at its terminal proceeded, 19F NMR was used to observe the structure. [ka]

[0072] Complex 22 has a zwitterion of Cl - The NMR peak was confirmed in deuterated methanol, which can dissolve the complex and polymer in the form of a deuterated methanol solvent. In addition, the amine group of complex 22 is ammonium (-NH4 + Since the complex cannot react with the PFP ester when it exists in the form of tetraethylamine (TEA), an equivalent amount of triethylamine (TEA) was added to the complex. The results are shown in Figure 1. As can be seen in Figure 1, first 19 F NMR analysis of polymer P1 alone revealed three broad peaks corresponding to PFPA. Next, upon addition of complex 22, three additional peaks of sharply pointed pentafluorophenol (PFPOH) were observed. These are PFPOH peaks, a by-product formed by the reaction of the amine at the end of complex 22. Over time, the PFPOH peaks increased in size, while the PFPA peaks decreased. After approximately 36 hours, all PFPA peaks disappeared, leaving only the PFPOH peaks. This suggests that PFP esters can react with the amine groups contained in the TPMA-based osmium complex, and that the PFPA polymer can function as a polymer matrix capable of immobilizing the electron transfer mediator and GDH.

[0073] 1-3. Synthesis of Redox Polymers polymers (36) and (37) Oxidation-reduction polymers were synthesized by reacting TPMA-based osmium complexes 22 and 33, which contain amine functional groups, with PFPA polymer 36 (Figure 2). The reaction was carried out by calculating the equivalent ratio to obtain an oxidation-reduction polymer with an osmium complex content of approximately 25–30% in the entire polymer chain.

[0074] 1) Synthesis of oxidation-reduction polymer (36) [ka]

[0075] In an NMR tube, starting material 22 (6 mg, 0.009 mmol) was dissolved in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL). The solution was added to starting material P1 (5 mg) dissolved in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL), followed by triethylamine (1.24 μL, 0.009 mmol). The reaction progress was monitored. 19 After confirming the reaction by F NMR, the polymer was purified by slowly dropping the reaction solution into diethyl ether three times to obtain a precipitate. The precipitate was filtered, washed with diethyl ether, and then dried under vacuum for more than 4 hours to obtain product 36 as a brown solid (6 mg, 64%). 19 F NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ -153.38 (br, ortho), -159.74 (br, para), -163.53 (br, meta)

[0076] 2) Synthesis of oxidation-reduction polymer (37) [ka]

[0077] In an NMR tube, starting material 33 (6.5 mg, 0.009 mmol) was dissolved in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL). The solution was added to starting material P1 (5 mg) dissolved in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL), followed by triethylamine (1.22 μL, 0.009 mmol). The reaction progress was monitored. 19 After confirming the reaction by F NMR, the polymer was purified by slowly dropping the reaction solution into diethyl ether three times to obtain a precipitate. The precipitate was filtered, washed with diethyl ether, and dried under vacuum for more than 4 hours to obtain product 37 as a brown solid (7.2 mg, 73%). 19 F NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ -154.57 (br, ortho), -160.27 (br, para), -164.95 (br, meta)

[0078] The reaction between the added complex and the PFPA polymer is 19 The ratio of the redox polymer was determined by F NMR until no further changes in the peaks occurred. It took approximately 24 to 36 hours for all the added osmium complex to react. 19 The ratios of the two redox polymers were confirmed by F NMR. Redox polymer 37 had a 2:3 PFPA:PFPOH ratio, with the osmium complex accounting for 30% of the total chain. Redox polymer 38 had a 2.2:2.8 PFPA:PFPOH ratio, indirectly indicating that approximately 28% of the osmium complex was contained in the polymer matrix. Both polymers were obtained by precipitation in diethyl ether. Unlike the starting polymer 36, both redox polymers were soluble in water. Furthermore, as confirmed below, CV measurements showed similar redox potentials to the osmium complex monomer. These results indicate that we have successfully synthesized redox polymers containing TPMA-based osmium complexes.

[0079] 1-4. Synthesis of transition metal complexes containing CN ligands and redox polymers containing PFP polymers 1 [ka]

[0080] In an NMR tube, the starting material, an osmium complex containing a CN ligand, [Os(2-(2-pyridinyl-κN)-5-methaneamine-phenyl-κC)(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine)2]Cl2 (11 mg, 0.014 mmol), was dissolved in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL). The solution was added to the starting material, PFP polymer (7:3) (17 mg) dissolved in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL), followed by triethylamine (3.8 μL, 0.028 mmol). The progress of the reaction was monitored. 19After confirming the results by F NMR (Figure 3), the polymer was purified by slowly dropping the reaction solution into diethyl ether three times to obtain a precipitate. The precipitate was filtered, washed with diethyl ether, and dried under vacuum for more than 4 hours to obtain a brown solid product.

[0081] 1-5. Synthesis of redox polymers containing transition metal complexes with CN ligands 2 [ka]

[0082] In an NMR tube, dissolve the starting material [Os(2-(2-pyridinyl-κN)-5-methaneamine-phenyl-κC)(4,4'-dimethoxy-2,2'-bipyridine)2]Cl2 (9.7 mg, 0.012 mmol) in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL). Add the dissolved solution to the starting material PFP polymer (7:3) (15 mg) dissolved in deuterated methanol (0.5 mL), followed by triethylamine (3.1 μL, 0.024 mmol). Check the reaction progress. 19 After confirming the reaction by F NMR (Figure 4), the polymer was purified by slowly dropping the reaction solution into diethyl ether three times to obtain a precipitate. The precipitate was filtered, washed with diethyl ether, and dried under vacuum for more than 4 hours to obtain a brown solid product.

[0083] Example 2. Immobilization of an oxidation-reduction polymer and an enzyme and a glucose sensitivity test The following test was carried out to confirm the sensitivity to glucose concentration by immobilizing a solution of a mixture of an osmium complex-containing redox polymer and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) on an SPCEs electrode.

[0084] 2-1. Fabrication of an electrode with an immobilized redox polymer and sugar dehydrogenase A mixed solution was prepared by dissolving 0.4 mg of redox polymer in 50 μL of distilled water and 0.8 mg of glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) in 50 μL of distilled water (v / v 1:1). This mixed solution was uniformly applied to SPCEs (0.83 μL for redox polymers 37 and 38, and 1 μL for redox polymers 1 and 2 containing transition metal complexes with CN ligands) and slowly dried at room temperature. After drying was complete, 0.83 μL of the mixed solution was applied to redox polymers 37 and 38, and 1 μL for redox polymers 1 and 2 containing transition metal complexes with CN ligands. This process was repeated twice more. A total of 2.5 μL (polymers 37 and 38) and 3 μL (redox polymers 1 and 2 containing transition metal complexes with CN ligands) of the mixed solution were applied to the electrodes, and the electrodes were dried at room temperature for at least 12 hours. The composition of the mediator and enzyme and the method of cross-linking on the SPCEs electrode surface are shown schematically in Figure 5.

[0085] 2-2. Measurement of current due to glucose concentration The electrode with the redox polymer and glucose dehydrogenase immobilized as prepared in Example 2-1 was placed in 50 mL of 10 mM PBS solution with a stir bar and stirred at 150 rpm to measure the I / O curve. A fixed amount of glucose dissolved in 10 mM PBS was added every 200 seconds, and the current was measured at concentrations of 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, and 100 mM to confirm the change in current. The results are shown in Figure 6a.

[0086] The test results showed that the electrodes with the 37 and 38 oxidation-reduction polymers cross-linked to the enzyme showed a gradual increase in current as the glucose concentration increased. First, the current-time graph showed that both electrodes showed a gradual, stepwise increase up to a concentration of 100 mM, and this change was also clearly evident in the low concentration range (0-1 mM). Furthermore, when the average current generated according to concentration was plotted as a current-concentration graph, a correlation was confirmed between the magnitude of the current generated by each glucose concentration. In the low concentration range, the amount of constant current increased linearly, but as the concentration gradually increased, the current increase gradually decreased in the high concentration range of 16 mM or higher, and the current value remained constant. This is because the electrode reached the maximum value at which sugar could be oxidized, and the increase in current gradually decreased, resulting in a limiting catalytic current (i max ) was reached. Furthermore, the electrode cross-linked with the 37th oxidation-reduction polymer showed a maximum current of about 1.5 μA, while the electrode cross-linked with the 38th oxidation-reduction polymer showed a maximum current of about 0.5 μA, which was one-third lower than the 37th electrode.

[0087] The electrode with the oxidation-reduction polymer and glucose dehydrogenase immobilized prepared in Example 2-1 was placed in 50 mL of 10 mM PBS solution with a stir bar and stirred at 150 rpm, and an I-T curve was measured. For the electrode with the enzyme crosslinked to oxidation-reduction polymers 1 and 2 containing transition metal complexes with CN ligands, a fixed amount of glucose dissolved in 10 mM PBS was added every 200 seconds. The current was measured under low concentration ranges of 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.5 mM, and under high concentration ranges of 1, 5, 10, 50, and 100 mM, respectively, to confirm the change in current. The results are shown in Figures 6b and 6c.

[0088] The test results showed that both electrodes showed a gradual, stepwise increase in current magnitude in both the low concentration range (0-0.5 mM) and the high concentration range (0-100 mM). In the low concentration range, the current increased linearly, maintaining a constant amount, whereas in the high concentration range, the concentration gradually increased, maintaining a constant current value above 50 mM. This indicates that the electrode reached the maximum value at which sugar can be oxidized. The electrode crosslinked with oxidation-reduction polymer 1 containing a transition metal complex with a CN ligand showed a maximum current of approximately 1.0 μA, while the electrode crosslinked with oxidation-reduction polymer 2 containing a transition metal complex with a CN ligand showed a maximum current of approximately 0.2 μA.

[0089] Furthermore, we measured the current change before and after the cyclic voltage-current test. Specifically, the current change was measured from -0.5 to +0.1 V in 10 mM PBS, and from -0.3 to +0.4 V for the electron transfer mediator containing the CN ligand and the redox polymers 1 and 2 containing PFPA. The results are shown in Figures 7a to 7d. In Figures 7a to 7d, the CVs were measured immediately after the electrode was assembled, while the "after" CVs were measured after stirring in PBS for 1 hour.

[0090] As shown above, the redox polymer containing PFPA was well immobilized on the enzyme and electrode surface, demonstrating clear sensitivity even at low concentrations and a linear current change up to a certain concentration. Furthermore, the cross-linked electrode showed limiting catalytic currents of 1.5 μA, 0.5 μA, 1.0 μA, and 0.2 μA at a concentration of 100 mM. This demonstrates that the immobilization method using a TPMA-osmium complex-based electron transfer mediator or a CN ligand-osmium complex-based electron transfer mediator with a PFPA polymer matrix can function as a blood glucose sensor.
