Figure 1.
Collagen-coated, structure-switching E-AB sensors specific to ATP exhibited a quantitative increase in faradaic current in the presence of ATP directly in cell culture media (84% DMEM-high glucose, 15% FBS, and 1% 10,000 U/mL Pen/Strep). (Left) Squarewave voltammograms exhibit an increase in peak current of ~30% after the addition of 1 mM ATP. (Right) The collagen-coated sensor exhibited an observed binding affinity (KD) = 17 ± 3 μM to ATP when the calibration curve was fit to a Langmuir-like isotherm. Data showed and error bars represent the mean and standard deviation of three independently fabricated E-AB sensors using the same experimental conditions.
