This article discusses the development of an electrochemical enzyme biosensor suitable for continuously monitoring of organophosphates like paraoxon in conditions similar to those found in lakes and rivers. The biosensor immobilizes organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) in functionalized mesoporous silica (FMS). Paraoxon concentrations were measured by the OPH-FMS biosensor with simulated lake and river waters conditions with variables including pH, ionic strength, turbidity, total dissolved solids total organic carbon, clay colloids, soap content, biomass, petroleum, an inorganic interferent and an organic interferent. |
