Resumen:
Introduction: The PKU is an inborn error of amino acid metabolism, in which phenylalanine (Phe) accumulated in the blood causing alterations at the central nervous system. We report a novel paper-based enzymatic platform coupled to screen printed graphene-modified electrode for the neonatal screening of phenylketonuria (PKU0. Methods: The paper-based analytical device coupled to electrochemical detection (EPAD) is based on the use of paper microzones modified with phenylalanine dehydrogenase enzyme (PheDH). The modified PADs were placed on the surface of an electrode modified with electrochemically reduced graphene (ERGO). PheDH in the presence of NAD + catalyzes the reversible deamination of Phe to form phenylpyruvate, ammonia, and NADH. The electrochemical oxidation of NADH was monitored by differential pulse amperometry (DPA) at 0.6 V. The method was linear in the concentration range from 1 to 600 μmol/L of Phe with a LOQ of 1 μmol/L and LOD of 0.2 μmol/L. Within day precision was 5.7% across 3 levels of control samples. Between-day precision was 8.3%. The comparison with the standard Phe enzyme assay kit showed good agreement. The time required for the overall assay was
