A wearable nanozyme-enzyme electrochemical biosensor for sweat lactate monitoring.

In this study, we developed a wearable nanozyme-enzyme electrochemical biosensor that enablies sweat lactate monitoring. The biosensor comprises a flexible electrode system prepared on a polyimide (PI) film and the Janus textile for unidirectional sweat transport. We obtained favorable electrochemical activities for hydrogen peroxide reduction by modifying the laser-scribed graphene (LSG) electrode with cerium dioxide (CeO)-molybdenum disulphide (MoS) nanozyme and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). By further immobilisation of lactate oxidase (LOx), the proposed biosensor achieves chronoamperometric lactate detection in artificial sweat within a range of 0.1-50.0 mM, a high sensitivity of 25.58 μA mMcm and a limit of detection (LoD) down to 0.135 mM, which fully meets the requirements of clinical diagnostics. We demonstrated accurate lactate measurements in spiked artificial sweat, which is consistent with standard ELISA results. To monitor the sweat produced by volunteers while exercising, we conducted on-body tests, showcasing the wearable biosensor's ability to provide clinical sweat lactate diagnosis for medical treatment and sports management.
