| Research Abstract |
The key point of the development of the implantable artificial pancreas is that of a small implantable glucose sensor which can measure blood glucose levels directly for a long time. We have proposed an in situ ultrasonic cleaning method to remove the adhered materials on the sensor surface from blood or body fluid. We have developed a micro glucose sensor fabricated in a needle using a newly developed electrodeposition method of Pt black with physical stability. Pt black was electrodeposited on a Pt write (0.127 mmphi) sealed in a 23-G needle (ID = 0.45 mmphi) under irradiation of ultrasonic wave (38 kHz, 30 W) from a conventional Pt-electroplating solution for 80 s at -80 mV vs.Ag-AgCl. Pt black tightly adhered on the surface of a Pt wire, while that deposited without the irradiation of ultrasonic wave was easily removed from the surface by sonication. GOD was absorbed to the Pt black surface from 0.75 ml of 5300 U/ml solution (pH 7.45) at 6ﾟC for 30 min and air-dried. GOD was fixed with glutaraldehyde and then with Nafion solution at 6ﾟC.The activity of GOD immobilized on the Pt black was found to be 5.5 mU/sensor on the first day and it gradually decreased with time but kept more than 74% of the initial value after 26 days storing in PBSS at 6ﾟC.The sensor responds to the stepwise change of glucose concentrations up to about 50 mg/dl within a few minutes and the output currents varied with oxygen partial pressures.
