Cu-nanoflower decorated gold nanoparticles-graphene oxide nanofiber as electrochemical biosensor for glucose detection.

A novel electrospinning approach is proposed for the fabrication of copper (Cu)-nanoflower decorated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-graphene oxide (GO) nanofiber (NF) as an electrochemical biosensor for the glucose detection. In this study, GO was mixed with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and used as a fiber precursor, which greatly improves the electrochemical properties. The above solution was uniformly coated onto the surfaces of gold chip to form GO NFs via electrospinning.
