| description | Glucose biosensor is generally based on reaction between glucose and
enzyme glucose oxidase (GOD) that produces gluconic acid and hydrogen
peroxide. The gluconic acid is a conducting medium while hydrogen
peroxide is a polar molecule. This work discovers the changes of dielectric
properties due to conductive loss below 4 GHz and dipole orientation of
above 4 GHz of this reaction. The difference between the dielectric properties
of an enzyme and glucose-enzyme reaction can be related to the glucose
concentration in the sample. The dielectric properties of glucose solutions,
enzyme GOD and glucose-enzyme reaction were measured using the Open
Ended Coaxial Probe with frequency range from 200 MHz to 20 GHz at room
temperature (25 'C). Two types of juice are used in this study; blackcurrant
juice and lychee juice. The actual glucose content in juice samples were
analyzed using High Performance Liquid Chromatography method. This technique has also been applied using the microstrip sensor for measuring
glucose concentration in glucose solution, blackcurrant juice and lychee juice.
The result shows that the highest sensitivity for the differences in dielectric
changes with glucose concentrations due to the effect of ionic conductivity
and dipole orientation were found at 0.99 GHz and 16.44 GHz respectively.
The changes in dielectric loss are preferable for derivation of glucose
concentration. In this proposed technique, the detection limit of glucose
concentration is as low as 0.01 M (0.20 g/100 ml) with optimum ratio of 1:3
for an enzyme and glucose. Lychee juice has a higher dielectric loss
difference for both frequencies followed by blackcurrant juice and glucose
solution due to the contribution of free ions in the juice. The sensitivity of
attenuation measurement using microstrip sensor is dependent on the
dielectric loss of materials. The sensitivity of measurement about 0.002 dB/
(mg/ml) at 0.99 GHz and 0.004 dB/ (mg/ml) at 16.44 GHz which are
comparable to the current microwave techniques. This technique gives
benefit to the future development of microwave biosensor by which both
ionic conductivity and dipole effects are occurred simultaneously. |
