Abstract
In the present work we report a facile method for fabrication of glucose oxidase immobilized on the partially reduced graphene-gold nanocomposite (PRGO-AuNPs/GOx) as a novel biosensor for determination of glucose concentration. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to study the morphology of PRGO and PRGO-AuNPs. Also, fast Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-Vis spectroscopy were used to confirm formation of graphene and graphene-gold composite. Then, the electrochemical behavior of PRGO-AuNPs/GOx modified electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Our electrochemical studies, especially chronoamperometry (CA), showed that the PRGO-AuNPs/GOx modified electrode has excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the glucose. The limit of detection and sensitivity towards glucose were estimated as 0.06μM and 15.04mAmM(-1), respectively.
