Popis: We report here on a technique to immobilize a multilayer enzyme assembly on an optic fiber surface. A multilayer of an enzyme, alkaline phosphatase, was successfully immobilized on an optical fiber surface. Chemiluminescence, ellipsometry, and surface plasmon resonance were used to characterize the structure and activity of the assembly. A chemiluminescence-based fiber optic biosensor utilizing this immobilization technique has been developed for the detection of organophosphorous-based pesticides. Detection of pesticide at sub-ppm level has been achieved for paraoxon.© (1996) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
