CURRENT TECHNOLOGY AND
FUTURE PROSPECT FOR DETECTION

DETECTION OF ALCOHOL
Accurate and rapid measurement of alcohol in order to analyze human body fluids for checking ethanol content
The food, beverage and pulp industries require simple, fast and economic analytical methods in order to control fermentation processes and the quality of products
In agricultural and environmental analysis, e.g. for the assessment of ethanol at a spill site or in groundwaters
Screening for alcohol problems: Drivers and alcoholics
Major work on Ethanol
NON-ENZYMATIC TECHNIQUES FOR
QUANTIFICATION OF ETHANOL
GC= gas chromatography; FID = flame-ionisation detection; MS= mass spectroscopy; HPLC = high performance liquid chromatography; IR = infrared; NIR = near infrared; FT = Fourier transform
However: Complex, time consuming and require
previous separations processes (distillation..)
Expensive instrumentation and trained operators
Overcome by the use of enzymatic methods
ENZYMES FOR ETHANOL BIOSENSORS
Alcohol Oxidase (AOX) and Alcohol Dehydrogenase (ADH)
ALCOHOL OXIDASE
Produced by methylotrophic yeasts during growth
on methanol
Cofactor- flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)
Biosensors based on
Decrease in O2
Increase in H2O2 concentration
BIOSENSORS DEVELOPED USING ALCOHOL
OXIDASE
O2 Probe- Electrochemical Detection and Optical
Detection
H2O2 Probe
a) Direct (First generation biosensor)
b) Indirect method
(Second and Third generations)
THIRD GENERATION ALCOHOL BIOSENSOR
(2014)
• Ferrocene molecules entrapped in the AOX protein matrix
• Detection limit of 2.3 uM
VISUAL ETHANOL BIOSENSOR (2014)
Dip Stick Test
Polyaniline (PANI) is a polymer that changes
conductivity and colour with changes in pH or redox
reactions
The colour change of the films towards ethanol has
been scanned and analyzed using image analysis
software (i.e., ImageJ)
PROPOSED REACTION MECHANISM
Reduction of the PANI film from its emeraldine salt
form (green) to the emeraldine base form (blue)
ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE
Co-enzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD+)
NAD+ to be added externally
ELECTROCHEMILUMINESCENCE ETHANOL
BIOSENSOR (2013)
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a process of
converting electrochemical energy into radiative
energy on the surface of electrode
Based on tris(2,2′-bipyridine) ruthenium(II)
[Ru(bpy)32+ ] : good electrochemical stability, high
ECL efficiency, and the convenience to couple with
various separation techniques
Alcohol Dehydrogenase

PHOTOGRAPH OF THE BIOSENSOR
CONCLUSION AND FUTURE
Keys features needed for alcohol biosensors
portability, low cost and potential for fabrication
immobilization of alcohol oxidase (AOD) or alcohol
dehydrogenase or any other enzyme
ADH more popular in recent disposable ethanol
biosensors than AOX as it’s dry enzyme
preparation has low shelf life
Disposable biosensor
Majority of work done in Ethanol but not Methanol
which is considered as toxic
