A novel highly sensitive impedimetric Myelin Basic Protein (MBP) immunosensor for the determination of a Multiple Sclerosis (MS) autoantibody, Anti-Myelin Basic Protein (Anti-MBP) was developed by immobilization of MBP on Gelatin and Gelatin-Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) modified platinium electrode. Cyclic voltammetric (CV) and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopic (EIS) methods were employed in determination of the electrode responses and applicability. Gelatin-MBP and gelatin-TiO2-MBP electrodes were prepared by chemical immobilization of the substrates onto the platinium electrodes. The formal potentials of MBP confined on gelatin-MBP and gelatin-TiO2-MBP surfaces are estimated to be 195 and 205 mV, respectively. Thus, a little more reversible electron transfer reaction occurs on the gelatin-TiO2-MBP immunosensor surface. The peak separations of MBP (150 mV and 110 mV s(-1) at 100 mV s(-1)) and the asymmetric anodic and cathodic peak currents indicate that the electron transfer between Anti-MBP and gelatin-MBP/gelatin-TiO2-MBP immunosensor is quasireversible. Control samples containing a nonspecific human immunoglobulin G (hIgG) antibody were also studied, and calibration curves were obtained by subtraction of the responses for specific and nonspecific antibody-based sensors. Gelatin-MBP and gelatin-TiO2-MBP immunosensors have detection limit of 0.1528 ng ml(-1) and 0.1495 ng ml(-1) respectively. This immunosensor exhibits high sensitivity and low response times (58 s for gelatin-MBP and 46 s for gelatin-TiO2-MBP immunosensor). The developed label-free impedimetric immunosensors also provide a simple and sensitive detection method for the specific determination of Anti-MBP in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum samples.
