The high selectivity of the electrode is here explained by a relationship between the bandgap energy of analyte and the Fermi level of graphene. The high sensitivity in the oxidation current was determined by analyzing the influence of the high surface area and chemical structure of free-standing graphene nanosheets on analyte adsorption capacity. This finding strongly indicates that the CVD graphene electrode can be used as a biosensor to detect five analytes in human serum.

Flexible carbon nanotubes-MnO2/reduced graphene oxide-polyvinylidene fluoride films for supercapacitor electrodes

High surface area electrode materials are of interest for the application of electrochemical sensors. Currently, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) graphene-sensing electrodes are scarce. Herein, for the first time, a graphene based on a Ta wire support was prepared using the CVD method to form a highly electroactive biosensing platform. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were utilized to characterize the morphology and investigate the electrochemical properties of the CVD graphene electrodes. The resulting CVD graphene electrode exhibited good electrocatalytic activity and had a prominent response effect on dopamine, uric acid, guanine, and adenine. Standing graphene nanosheets have rich catalytic sites such as the edges, the defect levels of the plane, and porous network structures between the graphene nanosheets. These catalytic sites prompt the adsorption and resolution for the four species and the strong electron transport capability of the CVD graphene, which effectively improved the electrical signals for response to four species. Moreover, the graphene electrode is a promising candidate in electrochemical sensing and other electrochemical device applications.
