Abstract in Portuguese
Neste projeto estudou-se a interação da enzima peroxidase de raiz forte (HRP) em interfaces nanoestruturadas e sua possível aplicação em biossensores de peróxido de hidrogênio. Foram utilizadas as técnicas de Langmuir, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) e automontagem por adsorção física para formar filmes nanoestruturados. A interação da enzima com espécies em interfaces foi investigada com materiais que serviram de matrizes de adsorção, ou seja, a quitosana (Ch) e o fosfolipídio 1,2-dipalmitoil-sn-glicero-3-[fosfatidil-rac-(1-glicerol)] (sal de sódio) (DPPG). Os filmes de Langmuir foram caracterizados com medidas de pressão e potencial de superfície, espectroscopia no infravermelho, e tensão superficial dinâmica. Para os filmes LB e automontados, empregaram-se espectroscopias de fluorescência, ultravioleta-visível e infravermelho e microgravimetria por cristal de quartzo. A peroxidase de raiz forte apresentou forte interação com DPPG, confirmada em filmes de Langmuir por medidas de pressão de superfície, elasticidade dinâmica e de espectroscopia de reflexão e absorção no infravermelho, com modulação por polarização (PM-IRRAS). A massa de peroxidase transferida em filmes Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) mistos com DPPG foi de aproximadamente 200 ng, de acordo com medidas com uma microbalança de cristal de quartzo. A atividade da HRP foi mantida no filme LB, inclusive com atividade catalítica maior do que em meio homogêneo e nos filmes automontados com quitosana. As medidas de atividade não afetaram a morfologia dos filmes LB, estudada com microscopia de força atômica (AFM), ao contrário dos filmes automontados. Conclui-se que a imobilização de HRP é mais eficiente num filme LB, com matriz fosfolipídica, apresentando boas perspectivas de emprego em biossensores de peróxido de hidrogênio.

Abstract in English
A study has been performed on the interaction of the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in nanostructured interfaces and their possible application in biosensors for hydrogen peroxide. The nanostructured films were obtained with the Langmuir, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) and layer-by-layer (LbL) methods. The interaction between HRP and species at interfaces was investigated using materials that served as matrix for immobilization, viz. chitosan (Ch) and the phospholipid 1,2-dipalmytoil-sn-glycero-3-[phosphatidyl-rac-(1-glycerol)] (sodium salt) (DPPG). The Langmuir films were characterized with surface pressure, surface potential, elasticity measurements and polarization-modulation reflection and absorption infrared spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS). For LB and LbL films, use was made of fluorescence, absorption in the UV-vis. and infrared spectroscopy. HRP displayed strong interaction with DPPG, which was confirmed in Langmuir films with measurements of surface pressure, dynamic elasticity and PM-IRRAS. The mass of HRP transferred onto a solid support in a mixed LB film with DPPG was 200 ng, according to data from a quartz crystal microbalance. The HRP activity was preserved in the mixed LB film, with a catalytic activity that was even higher than in solution or in LbL films of HRP/Ch. The catalytic activity measurements did not affect the morphology of the LB films, studied with atomic force microscopy (AFM), in contrast to the LbL films. The main conclusion is that HRP immobilization is more efficient in an LB film with a phospholipid matrix, with good prospects for developing biosensors for hydrogen peroxide.
