A tyrosinase-immobilized biosensor was developed based on various amine-modified multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) supports for the detection of phenolic compounds. MWNTs with various amine groups were prepared by radiation-induced graft polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto MWNT supports and the subsequent amination of poly(GMA) graft chains. The physical and chemical properties of the poly(GMA)-grafted MWNT supports and the aminated MWNT supports were investigated by SEM, XPS, and TGA. Furthermore, the electrochemical properties of the prepared tyrosinase-modified biosensor based on MWNT supports with amine groups were also investigated. The response of the enzymatic biosensor was in the range of 0.1-0.9 mM for the concentration of phenol in a phosphate buffer solution. Various parameters influencing biosensor performance have been optimized: binder effects, pH, temperature, and the response to various phenolic compounds. The biosensor was tested on phenolic compounds contained in two different commercial red wines.
