An inkjet-printed paper electrode with gold nanoparticle-ink as a non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor for detection of glucose in blood serum is reported.
Graphene oxide (GO) and functionalized carboxylic graphene oxide (COOH-GO) were successfully synthesized by modified Hummer’s technique. The prepared GO and COOH-GO was characterized successfully by UV-Visible Spectroscopy, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)& Zeta potential. The removal of U(VI) heavy metal comparative study was done by using Graphite, GO & COOH-GO and the removal were confirmed by using LED fluorimeter. The effect of pH of medium, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial concentration of U(VI) were examined for the removal of U(VI). The extent of U(VI) removal has been found to be in the order of COOH-GO >GO> graphite. The U(VI) removal maximum efficiency was observed ~96% observed at pH 4.5. The higher removal efficiency is attributed to the higher negative surface charge of COOH-GO (zeta potential:-39.9 mV) in comparison to zeta potential of GO (-28.9 mV) &graphite (-21.6 mV).
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.
