Abstract
Oxidase and peroxidase enzymes have attracted attention in various biotechnological industries due to their ease of synthesis, wide range of applications, and operation under mild conditions. Their applicability, however, is limited by their poor stability in harsher conditions and their non-reusability. As a result, several approaches such as enzyme engineering, medium engineering, and enzyme immobilization have been used to improve the enzyme properties. Several materials have been used as supports for these enzymes to increase their stability and reusability. This review focusses on the immobilization of oxidase and peroxidase enzymes on metal and metal oxide nanoparticle-polymer composite supports and the different methods used to achieve the immobilization. The application of the enzyme-metal/metal oxide-polymer biocatalysts in biosensing of hydrogen peroxide, glucose, pesticides, and herbicides as well as blood components such as cholesterol, urea, dopamine, and xanthine have been extensively reviewed. The application of the biocatalysts in wastewater treatment through degradation of dyes, pesticides, and other organic compounds has also been discussed.

Abstract
The strong and specific noncovalent interaction between avidin and biotin is widely exploited in different types of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits, labeled immunosensors, and polymer-based sensing devices for the detection of different biomarkers specific to different diseases such as cancer and influenza. Here, we employed the avidin-biotin technology in a novel gold nanoparticle-decorated graphene field-effect transistor (AuNP-GFET) and demonstrated the specific detection of the biotinylated macromolecules such as biotinylated proteins and nucleotides in the sub-picomolar (pM) range. The AuNP-GFET was constructed by fabricating six pairs of interdigital electrodes on graphene transferred on a SiO2/Si substrate. The sensing performance of AuNP-GFET was characterized by the real-time two-terminal electrical current measurement upon injection of the analyte solution into a silicone pool preattached onto the electrodes. Avidin, a tetrameric biotin-binding protein with strong affinity and specificity, immobilized on AuNP-decorated single-layer graphene, was used as the sensing platform and transduced the electrical signal upon binding to the analyte macromolecules. The sensing capability of the AuNP-GFET was tested with the biotinylated protein A. Sensitivity of the present biosensor was estimated to be ∼0.4 pM. The specificity and applicability of the biosensor were confirmed using both synthetic and real samples. Because the biotin label can retain its binding capability to avidin with strong affinity and specificity even after conjugating with varieties of proteins and nucleotides, the present AuNP-GFET biosensor is expected to promote the research in developing different biosensors.

Abstract
Continuous progress in the domain of nano and material science has led to modulation of the properties of nanomaterials in a controlled and desired fashion. In this sense, nanomaterials, including carbon-based materials, metals and metal oxides, and composite/hybrid materials have attracted extensive interest with regard to the construction of electrochemical biosensors. The modification of a working electrode with a combination of two or three nanomaterials in the form of nano-composite/nano-hybrids has revealed good results with very good reproducibility, stability, and improved sensitivity. This review paper is focused on discussing the possible constructs of nano-hybrids and their subsequent use in the construction of electrochemical glucose biosensors.

Abstract
In the past few decades, the enzyme immobilization technology has been exploited a lot and thus became a matter of rational design. Immobilization is an alternative approach to bio-catalysis with the added benefits, adaptability to automation and high-throughput applications. Immobilization-based approaches represent simple but effective routes for engineering enzyme catalysts with higher activities than wild-type or pristine counterparts. From the chemistry viewpoint, the concept of stabilization via manipulation of functional entities, the enzyme surfaces have been an important driving force for immobilizing purposes. In addition, the unique physiochemical and structural functionalities of pristine or engineered cues, or insoluble support matrices (carrier) such as mean particle diameter, swelling behavior, mechanical strength, and compression behavior are of supreme interest and importance for the performance of the immobilized systems. Immobilization of peroxidases into/onto insoluble support matrices is advantageous for practical applications due to convenience in handling, ease separation of enzymes from a reaction mixture and the reusability. A plethora of literature is available explaining individual immobilization system. However, current literature lacks the chemistry viewpoint of immobilization. This review work presents state-of-the-art "Smart" chemistry of immobilization and novel potentialities of several materials-based cues with different geometries including microspheres, hydrogels and polymeric membranes, nanoparticles, nanofibers, composite and hybrid or blended support materials. The involvement of various functional groups including amino, thiol, carboxylic, hydroxyl, and epoxy groups via "click" chemistry, amine chemistry, thiol chemistry, carboxyl chemistry, and epoxy chemistry over the protein surfaces is discussed.

Natural polyhydroxyalkanoate-gold nanocomposite based biosensor for detection of antimalarial drug artemisinin. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2014; 37:314-20.

Abstract
The worrisome trend of antimalarial resistance has already highlighted the importance of artemisinin as a potent antimalarial agent. The current investigation aimed at fabricating a biosensor based on natural polymer polyhydroxyalkanoate-gold nanoparticle composite mounting on an indium-tin oxide glass plate for the analysis of artemisinin. The biosensor was fabricated using an adsorbing horse-radish peroxidase enzyme on the electrode surface for which cyclic voltammetry was used to monitor the electro-catalytic reduction of artemisinin under diffusion controlled conditions. Electrochemical interfacial properties and immobilization of enzyme onto a polyhydroxyalkanoate-gold nanoparticle film were evaluated, and confirmed by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The differential pulse voltammetric peak current for artemisinin was increased linearly (concentration range of 0.01-0.08μg mL(-1)) with sensitivity of 0.26μAμg mL(-1). The greater sensitivity of the fabricated biosensor to artemisinin (optimum limits of detection were 0.0035μg mL(-1) and 0.0036μg mL(-1) in bulk and spiked human serum, respectively) could be of much aid in medical diagnosis.

Abstract
Nanoparticles composed of a magnetic iron oxide core surrounded by a metal shell have utility in a broad range of biomedical applications. However, the presence of surface energy differences between the two components makes wetting of oxide with metal unfavorable, precluding a "core-shell" structure of an oxide core completely surrounded by a thin metal shell. Three-dimensional island growth followed by island coalescence into thick shells is favored over the two-dimensional layer-by-layer growth of a thin, continuous metal coating of a true core-shell. Aqueous synthesis of gold-coated magnetite nanoparticles with analysis by infrared, energy-dispersive X-ray, and electron energy loss spectroscopies; high-resolution transmission electron microscopy; selected area electron diffraction; and high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy showed two distinct morphologies that are inconsistent with an idealized core-shell. The majority were isolated ~16-22-nm-diameter nanoparticles consisting of ~7-nm-diameter magnetite and a thick deposition of gold, most often discontinuous, with some potentially "sandwiched" morphologies. A minority were aggregates of agglomerated magnetite decorated with gold but displaying significant bare magnetite. Both populations were successfully conjugated to fibrinogen and targeted to surface-activated platelets, demonstrating that iron oxide-gold nanoparticles produced by aqueous synthesis do not require an ideal core-shell structure for biological activity in cell labeling and targeting applications.

Abstract
The evolution of 1st to 3rd generation electrochemical biosensors reflects a simplification and enhancement of the transduction pathway. However, in recent years, modification of the transducer with nanomaterials has become increasingly studied and imparts many advantages. The sensitivity and overall performance of enzymatic biosensors has improved tremendously as a result of incorporating nanomaterials in their fabrication. Given the unique and favorable qualities of gold nanoparticles, graphene and carbon nanotubes as applied to electrochemical biosensors, a consolidated survey of the different methods of nanomaterial immobilization on transducer surfaces and enzyme immobilization on these species is beneficial and timely. This review encompasses modification of enzymatic biosensors with gold nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and graphene.

Abstract
In order to construct a three-dimensional electrode, in situ electrochemical deposition of gold nanoparticles onto a gold electrode coated with a self-assembled monolayer of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (Au NP/MPA/Au) was conducted. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was then immobilized into this three-dimensional electrode, leading to the realization of direct electron transfer of HRP. Scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were applied to characterize the electrode before and after HRP immobilization. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant for immobilized HRP on a Au NP/MPA/Au electrode is 0.78 mM, indicating high enzymatic activity of HRP. The HRP modified electrode was further utilized as a sensing platform for the electrocatalytic reduction and detection of hydrogen peroxide. For the detection of hydrogen peroxide on this electrode, the sensitivity is 311.72 μA mM(-1) cm(-2), the detection limit is 0.16 μM, and the dynamic range is from 0.48 μM to 1.2 mM. Therefore this electrode is a promising device for sensitive and reproducible detection of H(2)O(2).

Abstract
The effect of colloid gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the fluorescence excitation spectrum of α-fetoprotein (AFP) has been investigated experimentally. The excitation spectral peaks of AFP with low concentration from 0.01 ng ml(-1) to 12 ng ml(-1) increase monotonically with increasing of AFP concentration. When some gold colloids were added to the AFP solution, the excitation peak at 285 nm decreases distinctly. By comparing the excitation peak intensity of AFP solution with gold colloids and without gold colloids at different AFP concentrations, the quenching effect from gold nanoparticle was more effective at lower AFP concentration. So the range of concentration from 0.01 ng ml(-1) to 0.09 ng ml(-1) will be the potential range of applications because of the higher sensitivity. The physical origin based on local field effect was investigated to illuminate this local environment dependent fluorescence quenching. The changing extent of quenching with different AFP concentrations can be attributed to the nonlinear decreasing of the local field factor of gold nanoparticles as a function of environmental dielectric constant.

Abstract
Centered on solid chemistry foundations, biology and materials science have reached a crossroad where bottom-up designs of new biologically important nanomaterials are a reality. The topics discussed here present the interdisciplinary field of creating biological mimics. Specifically, this discussion focuses on mimics that are developed using various types of metal nanoparticles (particularly gold) through facile synthetic methods. These methods conjugate biologically relevant molecules, e.g., small molecules, peptides, proteins, and carbohydrates, in conformationally favorable orientations on the particle surface. These new products provide stable, safe, and effective substitutes for working with potentially hazardous biologicals for applications such as drug targeting, immunological studies, biosensor development, and biocatalysis. Many standard bioanalytical techniques can be used to characterize and validate the efficacy of these new materials, including quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Metal nanoparticle-based biomimetics continue to be developed as potential replacements for the native biomolecule in applications of immunoassays and catalysis.

Abstract
Enzyme/polymer/gold nanoparticle hybrids, called "nanozymes", were prepared and structurally analyzed by dynamic light scattering (DLS), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and zeta-potential and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements, which showed that the nanozyme particles were mainly composed of a single gold nanoparticle, on whose surface the enzyme and polymer were coimmobilized. This kind of structure resulted in the high dispersion stability of the nanozyme under various conditions, accompanied by improved thermal stability of the enzyme.

Abstract
In this paper we report a study of laccase immobilisation on different kinds of carrier particles. The immobilisation of enzyme on the particle surface with respect to the immobilisation efficiency and the properties of the immobilised enzymes is discussed. The immobilisation of laccase on polystyrene particles bearing reactive beta-diketone groups is characterised by high efficiency, but grafting of the enzyme increases the stability of the colloidal system, which makes the separation/purification procedure difficult. Additionally, the extreme colloidal stability of the immobilisates hinders the application of such particles with immobilised enzymes in some applications where the recycling of the enzyme should be performed. It has been found that hybrid PS-AAEM particles equipped with maghemite show similar immobilisation efficiency to that of their analogues without maghemite and can additionally be manipulated in magnetic fields. The activity of the immobilised laccase is much higher in the pH region 5-7 and the temperature range 50-70 degrees C as compared with that of the free enzyme. Immobilised enzymes also exhibit much better storage stability.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have gained tremendous importance in biology and medicine because they can be used as carriers for delivering small molecules such as drugs, proteins, and genes. We report herein the binding of the hormone insulin to gold nanoparticles and its application in transmucosal delivery for the therapeutic treatment of diabetes mellitus. Insulin was loaded onto bare gold nanoparticles and aspartic acid-capped gold nanoparticles and delivered in diabetic Wistar rats by both oral and intranasal (transmucosal) routes. Our principle observations are that there is a significant reduction of blood glucose levels (postprandial hyperglycemia) when insulin is delivered using gold nanoparticles as carriers by the transmucosal route in diabetic rats. Furthermore, control of postprandial hyperglycemia by the intranasal delivery protocol is comparable to that achieved using the standard subcutaneous administration used for type I diabetes mellitus, thus showing considerable promise for further development.

Abstract
A new strategy for immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) has been presented by self-assembling gold nanoparticles on chitosan hydrogel modified Au electrode. From a mildly acidic chitosan solution, a chitosan film is electrochemically deposited on Au electrode surface via a negative voltage bias. This process is accompanied by the hydrogen evolution reaction, and the released hydrogen gas made the deposited chitosan film with porous structure, which facilitates the assembly of gold nanoparticles and HRP. The resulting substrates were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The immobilized HRP displayed an excellent catalytic property to the reduction of H2O2 in the presence of methylene blue mediator. The resulting biosensor (HRP-modified electrode) showed a wide dynamic range of 8.0 microM-15 mM H2O2, and the linear ranges were 8.0 microM-0.12 mM and 0.50-12 mM, with a detection limit of 2.4 microM estimated at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. Moreover, the biosensor remained about 85% of its original sensitivity after four weeks' storage.

Abstract
Inorganic composites are of special interest for biomedical applications such as in dental and bone implants wherein the ability to modulate the morphology and size of the inorganic crystals is important. One interesting possibility to control the size of inorganic crystals is to grow them on nanoparticles. We report here the use of surface-modified gold nanoparticles as templates for the growth of hydroxyapatite crystals. Crystal growth is promoted by a monolayer of aspartic acid bound to the surface of the gold nanoparticles; the carboxylate ions in aspartic acid are excellent binging sites for Ca(2+) ions. Isothermal titration calorimetry studies of Ca(2+) ion binding with aspartic acid-capped gold nanoparticles indicates that the process is entropically driven and that screening of the negative charge by the metal ions leads to their aggregation. The aggregates of gold nanoparticles are believed to be responsible for assembly of the platelike hydroxyapatite crystals into quasi-spherical superstructures. Control experiments using uncapped gold nanoparticles and pure aspartic acid indicate that the amino acid bound to the nanogold surface plays a key role in inducing and directing hydroxyapatite crystal growth.

Abstract
The adsorption of a therapeutic enzyme to self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of different functionalities (X = CH(3)-, OH- and COOH-) was evaluated as a function of solution pH. Radiolabelling studies showed that the enzyme has higher affinity for hydrophobic surfaces than for hydrophilic surfaces, and that the highest adsorption was obtained at the more acidic pH values (4.5 and 5.5), despite the type of surface. IRAS and XPS measurements confirmed this tendency. Dye-binding studies and fluorescence quenching were used to investigate if a pH variation induces any conformational changes on the enzyme. Both methods suggest that lowering the pH from physiological to acidic values triggers an increased exposure of non-polar sites in the enzyme, which may modulate its adsorption behaviour to the more hydrophobic surfaces. At pH 4.5, the enzyme carries a substantial positive net charge and therefore relatively low native-state stability. As a consequence, surface binding may be favoured, irrespective of the type of surface, by providing increased conformational entropy to the enzyme. The specific activity (SA) of the adsorbed enzyme was strongly dependent on the conditions used. A decrease in SA (ca. 30% of control) was observed after adsorption on CH(3)-SAMs for all the pH tested. Adsorption on gold and on the more hydrophilic SAMs (OH- and COOH-) resulted in different degrees of inactivation at the more acidic pH (4.5), and in enzyme activation (up to ca. 230% of control) at higher pH (7-8), near the isoelectric point of the enzyme.

Abstract
Preparation of an antibody-colloidal gold probe (conjugate) specific to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and its use in developing a rapid AFB1 diagnostic method was presented in this paper. Monodispersional nanogold colloid was synthesized and preparation of nanogold-labeled polyclonal antibody probe to aflatoxin B1 under friendly and optimal condition. Combination of antibody with nanogold particles was also characterized by UV-visible (UV-vis) light absorption spectra, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), fluorescence spectroscopy, titers, cross reactivity and stability measurements. Furthermore, nanogold-labeled probe was used to develop an immunochromatographic (IC) method for aflatoxin B1 analysis. With this method, analysis could be completed in less than 10 min. Detection time was reduced 6-10 times comparative with ELISA. With visual observation, lower test limit was found to be around 2.5 ng/ml aflatoxin B1 standard solution, which was increased to two times of ELISA.

Abstract
An amperometric biosensor for the quantitative measurement of glucose is reported. The biosensor is based on a biocomposite that is homogeneous and easily prepared. This biocomposite is made of chitosan hydrogel, glucose oxidase, and gold nanoparticles by a direct and facile electrochemical deposition method under enzyme-friendly conditions. The resulting biocomposite provided a shelter for the enzyme to retain its bioactivity at considerably extreme conditions, and the decorated gold nanoparticles in the biocomposite offer excellent affinity to enzyme. The biosensor exhibited a rapid response (within 7s) and a linear calibration range from 5.0 microM to 2.4 mM with a detection limit of 2.7 microM for the detection of glucose. The combination of gold nanoparticles affinity and the promising feature of the biocomposite with the onestep nonmanual technique favor the sensitive determination of glucose with improved analytical capabilities.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles are excellent biocompatible surfaces for the immobilization of enzymes. However, separation of the gold nanoparticle-enzyme bioconjugate material from the reaction medium is often difficult. In this study, we investigate the assembly of the gold nanoparticles on the surface of the amine-functionalized zeolite microspheres in the formation of zeolite-gold nanoparticle "core-shell" structures and, thereafter, the use of this structure in immobilization of fungal protease. The assembly of gold nanoparticles on the zeolite surface occurs through the amine groups present in 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (3-APTS). The fungal proteases bound to the massive "core-shell" structures were easily separated from the reaction medium by mild centrifugation and exhibited excellent reuse characteristics. The biocatalytic activity of fungal protease in the bioconjugate was marginally enhanced relative to the free enzyme in solution. The bioconjugate material also showed significantly enhanced pH and temperature stability and a shift in the optimum temperature of operation.
