Abstract

To improve both the GOD immobilization capability and sensitivity of MWCNTs-based biosensor electrode, the electrode was prepared by adding different quantities of GO. The addition of GO increased hydrophilicity and the surface free energy of electrodes for glucose sensing as well as the dispersion of MWCNTs. In addition, the GOD immobilization capability was enhanced and the sensitivity was improved up to 121 µA mM -1 even though having a high Km value (0.105) when adding 0.05 g GO to 0.05 g MWCNTs. These experimental results were attributed to the fact that the improvement in dispersion stability for MWCNTs, hydrophilicity, and surface free energy of electrode surface due to the addition of GO affected GOD immobilization capability.
