Assessments of Surface Coverage after Nanomaterials are Drop Cast onto Electrodes for Electroanalytical Applications

The drop-casting method for the suspension of nanomaterials on conducting surfaces is a commonly used procedure for evaluating the electrochemical properties of the drop-cast materials. In this study, we pinpoint a key limitation of the method, which may lead to misinterpretation of the obtained data, especially when evaluating heterogeneous electron-transfer rates. The electrochemical responses recorded …

Rational Design of Carboxyl Groups Perpendicularly Attached to a Graphene Sheet: A Platform for Enhanced Biosensing Applications

Graphene oxide (GO)-based materials offer great potential for biofunctionalization with applications ranging from biosensing to drug delivery. Such biofunctionalization utilizes specific functional groups, typically a carboxyl moiety, as anchoring points for biomolecule. However, due to the fact that the exact chemical structure of GO is still largely unknown and poorly defined (it was postulated to …
