Single layer of graphene/Prussian blue nano-grid as the low-potential biosensors with high electrocatalysis

چکیده
A single-layer nanogrid of thiol graphene/Prussian blue (tG/PB) composite film was constructed to realize the high electrocatalytic biosensing of various physiological substances under the low potential. In order to achieve this architecture, a single layer of deformed polystyrene (PS) beads was first prepared as the template for the PB deposition. The structure of PB film can be well controlled to build a nanogrid with uniform 500 nm cavities by the self-assembly approach. This film can capture the thiol graphene into its nanogrid cavities to form the composite nanostructure via a strong ionic bond between thiol group from the graphene and Au from the substrate. Both electrocatalysis and conductivity of the as-prepared tG/PB film can harvest the remarkable enhancements due to the synergic effects of PB and graphene. As demonstrated, biosensors constructed by this film exhibited the high sensitivities and accuracies in the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose, lactate and glutamate under the very low potential 0.05 V. ã 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

In-situ growth of micro-cubic Prussian blue-TiO2 composite film as a highly sensitive H2O2 sensor by aerosol co-deposition approach.
Assisted by the aerosol co-deposition approach, Prussian blue (PB)-TiO2 composite film can be in-situ formed in one step. The architecture of this film is constructed by two layers: PB-TiO2 nano-particles as a ground layer and individual PB micro-cubes as a top layer. Together with the strong electrocatalytic ability from regular PB morphology, TiO2 can denote its high catalysis in H2O2 detecti...

Novel planar glucose biosensors to be used for continuous monitoring have been developed. The electrodes are produced with the "screen printing" technique, and present a high degree of reproducibility together with a low cost and the possibility of mass production. Prior to enzyme immobilisation, electrodes are chemically modified with ferric hexacyanoferrate (Prussian Blue). This allows the de...

Hybrid films composed of reduced graphene oxide (RG-O) and Cu nanowires (NWs) were prepared. Compared to Cu NW films, the RG-O/Cu NW hybrid films have improved electrical conductivity, oxidation resistance, substrate adhesion, and stability in harsh environments. The RG-O/Cu NW films were used as transparent electrodes in Prussian blue (PB)-based electrochromic devices where they performed sign...
