Glucose oxidase ($GOD_{ox}$) immobilized biosensor was fabricated by two methods. In one of the methods, gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) prepared by ${\gamma}$-irradiation were loaded into the poly(maleic anhydride)-grafted multi-walled carbon nanotube, PMAn-g-MWCNT electrode via physical entrapment. In the other method, the Au-NPs were prepared by electrochemical reduction of Au ions on the surface of PMAn-g-MWCNT electrode and then GODox was immobilized into the Au-NPs. The $GOD_{ox}$ immobilized biosensors were tested for electrocatalytic activities to sense glucose. The sensing range of the biosensor based on the Au-NPs physically modified PMAn-g-MWCNT electrode was from $30\;{\mu}M$ to $100\;{\mu}M$ for the glucose concentration, and the detection limit was $15\;{\mu}M$. Interferences of ascorbic acid and uric acid were below 7.6%. The physically Au deposited PMAn-g-MWCNT paste electrodes appear to be good sensor in detecting glucose.

Optical-fiber sensors have been developed to determine the concentrations of glucose and lactic acid in blood samples. Fluorescence dye [tris(2,2'-biphenyridine)-ruthenium(II)-chloride (RuBPY)] was entrapped by using a silicon to the unclad tip of a glass optic fiber. Enzymes like glucose oxidase (GOD) and lactate oxidase (LOD) have been immobilized by acrylamide resin adhesive, adsorption with zeolite or covalent bonding with aminopropyl-triethoxysilan. The fiber-optic glucose/lactate sensor was then used to analyze the concentrations of glucose and lactate in blood samples. The results were compared with the results of HPLC analysis and their difference was in error by less then 5 %.

Flow injection analysis (FIA) system was developed to monitor glucose concentrations in biotechnological processes. A fiber optic oxygen sensor was used to determine consumption of oxygen concentration by reaction of immobilized glucose oxidase (GOD). The GOD was immobilized on VA-Epoxy carrier and integrated into FIA system. A calibration curve for glucose was obtained in the range of 0.5 $g/L{\sim}3.0$ g/L.

Heterologous expression of glucose oxidase gene using recombinant yeast has been carried out. Polymerase chain reaction was conducted to obtain the gene encoding glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger and sequence comparison indicated the cloned 1.9kb DNA fragment appeared to be the glucose oxidise structural gene containing a signal sequence for extracellular location. Transforming shuttle vector was constructed with YEp352 to express the cloned glucose oxidase gene under the control of either GAL1 or GAL10 promoter. Plate assay of recombinant yeasts has shown that GAL1 promoter was more effective in yielding glucose oxidise than GAL10 promoter. Among the five different concentrations of galactose tried, 1% galactose showed the highest induction of glucose oxidase. Cellular localization experiment of recombinant enzyme using spheroplast revealed that most of enzymes (80%) were secreted into culture media in contrast to A. niger. There is no difference in heat-stability of recombinant enzyme up to $50^{\circ}C$ compared to the glucose oxidase from A. niger However, a dramatic reduction of enzyme activity was observed in both enzymes at $60^{\circ}C$.

In this study, the development of biosensors capable of bi-enzyme reactions by including Horseradish peroxidase and glucose oxidase was carried out for detection of glucose. The sensors were manufactured using electro deposition method to reduce production time, and screen printed electrodes (SPE) were used to produce economical sensors. To check the bienzyme effect, the sensor was compared and analyzed with single enzyme biosensor. The characteristics of the sensor were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy(SEM), cyclic voltammetry(CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS), chronoamperometry(CA), and flow injection analysis(FIA). Analysis results from SEM, CV and EIS confirmed that the enzymes are well fixed to the electrode surface. In addition, it was confirmed that bi-enzyme biosensors manufactured from the CA method improved signal performance by 200% compared to single enzyme biosensors. From this results, we were able to explain that HRP and GOD react catalyzed to each other. And the results of FIA showed that the intensity of each current signal was constant when the same concentration of glucose was injected four times. In addition, by analyzing the intensity of current signals for glucose concentrations, the biosensors manufactured in this study showed excellent trends in signal sensitivity, reproducibility and stability.

Polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was conducted to obtain the gene encoding glucose oxidase(GOD) from Aspergillus niger(ATCC 2110) and the DNA sequence determined was coincided with published GOD sequence from A. niger. Recombinant transforming vector containing GOD and hygromycin B(hyg.B) resistant gene(hph) was constructed and used for further transformation of A. niger ATCC 2110. Selectivity of hyg.B against A. niger differed depending on which media were used i.e., nutrient-rich media such as potato dextrose agar(PDA) and complete medium(CM) showed only 50% growth inhibition at 400 $\mu$m ml$^-1$ of hyg.B while the minimal media inhibited mycelial growth completely at 200 $\mu$m ml$^-1$ of hyg.B. Twenty to sixty putative transformants were isolated from the hyg.B-containing minimal top agar, transferred successively onto alternating selective and nonselective media for a mitotic stability of hyg.B resistance and, then, single-spored. Among the stable transformants, the transformant(GOD1-6) grown by flask culture showed the considerable increase of extracellular GOD activity, which was estimated to the degree of 50% - 100% comparing to that of wild type. Transformation of tGOD1-6 was resulted from integration of the vectors into heterologous as well as homologous regions of the A. niger genome. Southern blot analysis revealed that there were two independent integrations of vector into fungal genome and one into the GOD gene due to homologous recombination. In addition, GOD activity and sodium gluconate production when tGOD1-6 was fed-batch fermented were enhanced 11 fold and 2.25 fold, respectively, compared to that of the wild type.

In this paper, we developed an electrochemical glucose sensor strip using a paper substrate. The paper glucose sensor strip is eco-friendly because it uses paper as a substrate, and it has the advantage that it can be manufactured only with four printing, drying and cutting processes. The paper glucose sensor is significantly simplified by the production process than the conventional glucose sensors because the production of only four printing on the paper substrate. In this paper, eco-friendly tracing paper was used to develop a paper glucose sensor strip, and screen-printing technology was used to form a carbon/silver electrode, insulating layer and glucose oxidase(GOD) layer. The developed paper glucose sensor strip has a flat structure with a size of 30 × 4.6 ㎟, and blood injection is a type of direct contact with the exposed enzyme layer above the strip. In this paper, the performance of paper glucose sensor strips was evaluated by analyzing the cyclic voltammetry(CV) and chronoamperometry(CA) characteristics.

We developed a glucose sensor using glucose dehydrogenase flavin adenine dinucleotide (GDH-FAD). The structure of the three-layer glucose sensor was simplified, in which a single-layer design was used to lower the unit cost, and GDH-FAD was used to increase the measurement reliability. GDH-FAD has less impact on the 20 interfering substances that affect blood glucose measurement, such as galactose and maltose compared to glucose oxidase (GOD), and is not affected by the oxygen saturation; therefore, it is possible to measure both arterial or venous blood and thus less susceptibility to hematocrit. In this study, we developed a single-layer glucose sensor strip with low hematocrit effect using the GDH-FAD enzyme, and measured and evaluated the performance.

This study was to screen white-rot fungi possesing strong lignin degrading enzymes, glucose-1 oxidase (GOD), laccase (LAC) and Mn-peroxidase (MnP), based on their decolorization activity of Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR). In the midst of 20 tested fungi, 9 isolates were shown 4 kinds of activities such as RBBR decolorization, GOD, LAC and MnP. Relatively high active strains were identified as Phlebia radiata, Trametes versicolor, Abortiporus biennis, Gleophyllum odoratum and Cerrena unicolor. In particular, T. versicolor, G. odoratum, and C. unicolor, which have high activities of LAC, were used to confirm the optimal temperature and pH and to evaluate the effect of inducer, 2,5-xylidine on their LAC activity. The optimum temperatures for mycelial growth were $28^{\circ}C$ for T. versicolor and G. odoratum, and $25^{\circ}C$ for C. unicolor. The optimum pH for mycelial growth was 5.5. Three strains showed the increase of LAC enzyme activity by the addition of 2,5-xylidine. T. versicolor had the highest LAC activity of $22,700nkat/{\ell}$, corresponding to 11.3 times, G. odoratum $15,400nkat/{\ell}$, 9 times and C. unicolor $17,330nkat/{\ell}$, 5.5 times higher than those of the control.

This paper describes the novel immunoassay sensing system for a portable clinical diagnosis system. It consists of a bead cage reactor and a CMOS integrated biosensor. It showed the simple and easy antibody coating method on beads by flow-through avidin biotin complex technology in a microfluidic device. It showed just 90 nL sample consumption and good result for the application of alpha feto protein. The bead cage reactor has the role of the antibody coating, antigen binding and enzyme linking for the electrochemical sensing method. The CMOS biosensor consists of ISFET (ion selective field effect transistor) biosensor and temperature sensor for detecting pH that is the byproduct of enzyme reaction. The sensitivity is 8 $kHz/^{\circ}C$ in a temperature sensor and 33 mV/pH in a pH sensor. After filling the 15 um polystyrene beads in bead cage, antibody flowed and reacted to beads. Subsequently, the biotinylated antigen flowed and bound to the antibody and GOD (glucose oxidase)-avidin conjugate flowed and reacted to the biotin of the biotinylated antigen. After this reaction process, glucose solution flowed and reacted to the GOD on beads. The hydrogen was generated by glucose-GOD reaction. And it was detected by the pH sensor.
