Abstract

Gas sensing finds applications in various fields such as environmental control, hygiene, safety, automobile exhaust gas control or indoor air quality. Sensors are e.g. based on semiconductors or ionic conductors, include catalytic pellistor sensors, and employ optical, thermal, electrical or electrochemical detection techniques. Enzyme based gas sensors can broaden the sensor portfolio and open new applications due to the superior selectivity based on the substrate specificity of the enzyme. As the enzyme needs an aqueous environment, the interface between the gaseous analyte and the aqueous sensor electrolyte is of special importance. In this work gas diffusion electrodes are employed that are well known for amperometric gas sensors, but have been hardly applied to gas sensors incorporating enzymes. The gas diffusion electrodes are fabricated by depositing carbon or metal (Au or Pt) onto a porous, hydrophobic PTFE-membrane by filtration or e-beam evaporation, respectively. The amperometric gas sensor consists of a 3-electrode configuration with the gas diffusion electrode as the working electrode at the interface between the gaseous analyte phase and the aqueous electrolyte of the sensor. Close to the gas diffusion electrode, whose conducting layer faces the electrolyte, the enzyme is immobilised. Sensors for various analytes are presented, e.g. formaldehyde, phenol or ethanol. For the monitoring of formaldehyde an NAD-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase is used, for phenol the enzyme tyrosinase, and for ethanol the enzyme alcohol oxidase. Thus, different amperometric detection schemes are exemplarily demonstrated ranging from NAD-recycling, to direct detection of the enzymatic reaction product and in the case of the oxidase to hydrogen peroxide measurement. The sensors are characterized according to sensitivity, detection limit, response time, selectivity, and stability. In summary, the presented sensor configuration allows the selective, continuous, online monitoring of organic vapours without prior accumulation or sampling of the analyte.
