Electrochemical Biosensors for Express Analysis of the Integral Toxicity of Polymer Materials

Biosensors based on an oxygen electrode, a mediator electrode, and a mediator microbial biofuel cell (MFC) using the bacteria <i>Gluconobacter oxydans</i> B-1280 were formed and tested to determine the integral toxicity. <i>G. oxydans</i> bacteria exhibited high sensitivity t...

description Biosensors based on an oxygen electrode, a mediator electrode, and a mediator microbial biofuel cell (MFC) using the bacteria <i>Gluconobacter oxydans</i> B-1280 were formed and tested to determine the integral toxicity. <i>G. oxydans</i> bacteria exhibited high sensitivity to the toxic effects of phenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol, salicylic and trichloroacetic acid, and a number of heavy metal ions. The system “<i>G. oxydans</i> bacteria–ferrocene–graphite-paste electrode” was superior in sensitivity to biosensors formed using an oxygen electrode and MFC, in particular regarding heavy metal ions (EC<sub>50</sub> of Cr<sup>3+</sup>, Mn<sup>2+,</sup> and Cd<sup>2+</sup> was 0.8 mg/dm<sup>3</sup>, 0.3 mg/dm<sup>3</sup> and 1.6 mg/dm<sup>3</sup>, respectively). It was determined that the period of stable functioning of electrochemical systems during measurements was reduced by half (from 30 to 15 days) due to changes in the enzyme system of microbial cells when exposed to toxicants. Samples of the products made from polymeric materials were analyzed using developed biosensor systems and standard biotesting methods based on inhibiting the growth of duckweed <i>Lemna minor</i>, reducing the motility of bull sperm, and quenching the luminescence of the commercial test system “Ecolum”. The developed bioelectrocatalytic systems were comparable in sensitivity to commercial biosensors, which made it possible to correlate the results and identify, by all methods, a highly toxic sample containing diphenylmethane-4,4′-diisocyanate according to GC-MS data.
