Abstract
A novel glucose biosensor was developed based on the adsorption of glucose oxidase at a TiO(2)-Graphene (GR) nanocomposite electrode. A TiO(2)-GR composite was synthesized from a colloidal mixture of TiO(2) nanoparticles and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets by an aerosol assisted self-assembly (AASA). The particle morphology of all TiO(2)-GR composites was spherical in shape. It was observed that micron-sized TiO(2) particles were encapsulated by GR nanosheets and that the degree of encapsulation was proportional to the ratio of GO/TiO(2). The amperometric response of the glucose biosensor fabricated by the TiO(2)-GR composite was linear against a concentration of glucose ranging from 0 to 8mM at -0.6 V. The highest sensitivity was noted at about 6.2 μA/mMcm(2). The as prepared glucose biosensor based on the TiO(2)-GR composite showed higher catalytic performance for glucose redox than a pure TiO(2) and GR biosensor.
