ABSTRACT
Monitoring the levels of L-Tryptophan (L-Trp) in body fluids is crucial due to its significant role in metabolism and protein synthesis, which ultimately affects neurological health. Herein, we have developed a novel magneto-responsive electrochemical enantioselective sensor for the recognition of L-Trp based on oriented biochar derived from Loofah, Fe3O4 nanoparticles, and molecularly imprinted polydopamine (MIPDA) in xanthan hydrogel. The successful synthesis of these materials has been confirmed through physicochemical and electrochemical characterization. Various operational factors such as pH, response time, loading sample volume, and loading of active materials were optimized. As a result, the sensor exhibited an affordable linear range of 1.0-60.0 µM, with a desirable limit of detection of 0.44 µM. Furthermore, the proposed electrochemical sensor demonstrated good reproducibility and desirable selectivity for the determination of L-Trp, making it suitable for analyzing L-Trp levels in human plasma and serum samples. The development presented offers an appealing, easily accessible, and efficient strategy. It utilizes xanthan hydrogel to improve mass transfer and adhesion, biochar-stabilized Fe3O4 to facilitate magnetic orientation and accelerate mass transfer and sensitivity, and polydopamine MIP to enhance selectivity. This approach enables on-site evaluation of L-Trp levels, which holds significant value for healthcare monitoring and early detection of related conditions.
