Abstract

Copper (Cu) based metal oxides have high electrocatalytic ability. In this work, we are synthesized stone-like cuprous oxide particles (Cu2O SNPs) covered on acid functionalized graphene oxide (GOS) sheets using ultrasonic process (50kHz and 100W). Besides, the chemical structural and crystalline analyses of Cu2O SNPs@GOS composites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray crystallography and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The Cu2O SNPs@GOS nanomaterials were tested towards detection of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in biological samples. As expected Cu2O SNPs@GOS catalyst modified electrodes performed an outstanding catalytic ability on 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine oxidation. 8-OHdG is oxidative stress biomarker. Further, it is noted that the detection performance of Cu2O SNPs@GOS coated electrodes and it's highly enhanced due to the synergistic effect of Cu2O SNPs and GOS. Besides, the modified materials provide more electro-active faces and as well as rapid electron transport pathway and shorten diffusion. Moreover, oxidation of 8-OHdG sensor is exploring a long linear or working range of 0.02-1465µM and high sensitivity (8.75nM). The viability of the Cu2O SNPs@GOS proposed electrochemical methods have tested, to find out 8-OHdG concentrations in biological fluids (blood serum and urine) with a satisfying recovery ranges.
