Mathematical Modeling and Optimization of Enzyme‐Based Amperometric Screen‐Printed Biosensors Using Horseradish Peroxidase as a Model.

In this study, a mathematical model was formulated to characterize the functioning of third‐generation enzyme‐based amperometric biosensors. This study utilized a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)‐based, screen‐printed biosensor. The model parameters were determined using the Environment for Modeling Simulation and Optimization (EMSO), validated with experimental data, and exhibited high determination coefficients, indicating the accuracy of the models in capturing biosensor behavior. Simulations based on this model emphasize diffusion as a limiting factor. Further sensitivity analysis was conducted using simulated response surfaces and biosensor performance optimization, which confirmed that higher concentrations of HRP in the thinnest polymeric film resulted in enhanced biosensor sensitivity.
