Abstract:

The need to control pesticide residues in foodstuffs in a fast and straightforward analysis for the field scale is required. Therefore, this research develops a transducer-based biosensor with a small device potentiometer (SDP) to produce a fast and accurate pesticide detection tool. The biosensor based on Pt/Au electrodes by immobilizing the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme coated membrane cellulose acetate (CA) 15% (w/v) cross-linked glutaraldehyde (GA) 25% (v/v) and SDP as a transducer that produces a potential value. The biosensor testing results on the organophosphate pesticide class, namely diazinon and profenofos, in which they showed the sensitivity of 21.204 and 21.035 mV.decade-1, Limit of Detection (LoD) 10-8 mg.L-1, selectivity coefficient Ki,j < 1 and accuracy of 99.497 and 94.765 %, respectively. The results showed that the biosensor connected to an SDP transducer had an excellent performance in determining the presence of organophosphate pesticides.

Error bar in kalibration curve
Jjust a suggestion. It is bettet to show error bar in calibration curve regresdion line, which is indicate the precision of measurement. Thank you.

I have a coment and advice: In the page 6, line 14, the sentence is better rearrange to: The data in table 3 shows the % recovery avarage of the SDP-based biosensor as a transducer has the rate accuracy of 99.497 and 94.765% for diazinon and profenofos pesticide detection, respectively.
Also in the page 6, line 11 and 12: The first sentence and next sentence, especially the word "Accuracy" is better written more simple and efficient.
