Main observation and conclusion An enzyme-free amperometric sensor based on a heptadecapeptide possessing an electroactive ferrocene(Fc)linker as ferrocene-Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Phe-Gly-His-Ile-His-Glu-Gly-Tyr-Gly-Gly-Gly-G...Main observation and conclusion An enzyme-free amperometric sensor based on a heptadecapeptide possessing an electroactive ferrocene(Fc)linker as ferrocene-Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Phe-Gly-His-Ile-His-Glu-Gly-Tyr-Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Lys-(CH_(2))_(4)-dithiocyclopentane self-assembled on gold substrate was designed and fabricated for specific determination of L-arginine(L-Arg).The detection mechanism is based on conformational change of surface-immobilized peptide induced by the target L-Arg,which was confirmed via SEM,TEM,AFM,XPS,and SPR studies.The binding affinity and the recognition feasibility of immobilized specific and non-specific peptides were also assessed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS),cyclic voltammetry(CV),and differential pulse voltammetry(DPV).The proposed method can serve as“signal-on”sensor for detection of L-Arg down to 31 pmol/L with broad linear range(0.0001 to 10μmol/L).Furthermore,the Fc-conjugated specific peptide sensor was successfully applied to the determination of L-Arg in pig serums with a recovery rate of 97.5%—106.9%,and its test results are in good agreement with that of chromatographic instrument,evidencing that the oligopeptide-based sensor can be served as a simple and enzyme-free biosensing platform towards L-Arg for future application.展开更多
