A number of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives have been synthesized and tested as electron transfer mediators in glucose oxidase-based amperometric biosensors. Using cyclic voltammetry and stationary potential experiments, it is shown that several of these derivatives can effectively mediate electron transfer from the reduced flavin adenine dinucleotide redox centers of glucose oxidase to a conventional carbon paste electrode. An insoluble polymeric electron relay system, based on the covalent attachment of TTF moieties to a highly flexible siloxane polymer, is also shown to facilitate a flow of electrons from the enzyme to the electrode. The resulting glucose biosensors function efficiently over a clinically relevant range of glucose concentrations.
