Fusaric acid (FA) is a secondary fungal metabolite, which is widespread on corn and corn-based feed and food; FA has non-specific toxicity. Biosensor method is an express and easy-to-use method for quantitative and qualitative assessment of FA effect. Search for cultures has been performed for the formation of laboratory models of FA biosensor with the Clark-type oxygen electrode as transducer: respiration intensity of chosen cultures changed in the presence of FA. Resting cells of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum and Bacillus subtilis were used as receptors of the amperometric biosensor for FA determination in aqueous solution. To enhance the sensitivity of detection, induction by substrate was performed for Bacillus subtilis. Response-concentration linear dependencies were obtained in a range of 0.5–500 FA mg/L. Biosensor models were applied to characterize influence of FA on microbial cells and investigate some features of FA transport. The dependences of the cells’ response to FA on FA concentration were obtained; the kinetic parameters S₀.₅ and Vₘₐₓ were determined for each culture. Inhibition-threshold FA (Sⁱᵗ) concentrations were similar for both studied cultures. At concentrations lower than Sⁱᵗ, the process of simple diffusion governed FA transport into cells and caused the cells’ response to FA for non-induced culture.
