Abstract

In this paper we proposed a palladium(II) biosensor. The biosensor is based on determining of interactions between palladium(II) and metallothionein modified hanging mercury drop electrode by means of differential pulse voltammetry. We studied influence of two supporting electrolytes (potassium or sodium chloride) on the signals of the biosensor. Based on the results obtained we found potassium chloride (0.05 M) as the most suitable supporting electrolyte to determine palladium(II). The detection limit of the biosensor for palladium ions was evaluated as 100 nM with RSD about 10%. Moreover, we utilized the biosensor for measurement of the target molecule in the presence of human blood serum and human urine
