A biosensing array for multiplex clinical evaluation of glucose, creatinine, and uric acid

The multiplex and simultaneous determination of blood glucose, creatinine and uric acid is essential for the early screening of chronic diseases or regular disease monitoring. Here, we report for the first time a biosensing array for the multiplex and simultaneous determination of plasma glucose, creatinine and uric acid. The sensing electrodes are fabricated on a PET surface, including three working electrodes, one reference electrode, and one counter electrode. Each specific enzyme is immobilized on its corresponding working electrode. The biosensing array can exhibit high sensitivity and selectivity for the simultaneous determination of blood glucose, creatinine and uric acid in real blood samples, and the measurement results are accurate and consistent with those from the clinical biochemistry analyzer in the hospital. It is expected that this work could provide new avenues for the fundamental study of biosensing device construction, as well as practical applications of the detection of biomarkers in chronic diseases.
