A three-dimensional electroreduced graphene oxide (3DGR) and silver (Ag) nanocomposite was fabricated by electrodeposition directly on the electrode surface for modification. N-butylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate (BPPF 6 ) was used to prepare a carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) and acted as the basic working electrode. Hemoglobin (Hb) was further casted on the surface of Ag/3DGR/CILE to result a bioelectrode. Direct electrochemistry of Hb on the modified electrode was accelerated with a pair of well shape redox waves on cyclic voltammogram, showing the realization of direct electron transfer. The presence of high conductive Ag/3DGR composite on the electrode facilitated the electron transfer rate from the electroactive center of Hb to the electrode. Electrochemical behaviors of Hb on the modified electrode were checked and the electrochemical parameters were calculated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
