Electrochemical Impedance Analysis of Biofunctionalized Conducting Polymer-Modified Graphene-CNTs Nanocomposite for Protein Detection.

ABSTRACT: We report an electrodeposited poly(pyrrole-co-pyrrolepropylic acid) copolymer modified electroactive graphene-carbon nanotubes composite deposited on a glassy carbon electrode to detect the protein antigen (cTnI). The copolymer provides pendant carboxyl groups for the site-specific covalent immobilization of protein antibody, anti-troponin I. The hybrid nanocomposite was used as a transducer for biointerfacial impedance sensing for cTnI detection. The results show that the hybrid exhibits a pseudo capacitive behaviour with a maximum phase angle of 49° near 1 Hz, which is due to the inhomogeneous and porous structure of the hybrid composition. The constant phase element of copolymer is 0.61 (n = 0.61), whereas, it is 0.88 (n = 0.88) for the hybrid composites, indicating a comparatively homogeneous microstructure after biomolecular functionalization. The transducer shows a linear change in charge transfer characteristic (R _et) on cTnI immunoreaction for spiked human serum in the concentration range of 1.0 pg mL^-1-10.0 ng mL^-1. The sensitivity of the transducer is 167.8 ± 14.2 Ω cm² per decade, and it also exhibits high specificity and good reproducibility.

Pure Graphene Oxide Doped Conducting Polymer Nanocomposite for Bio-interfacing.

Project description:Advanced materials that are highly biocompatible and easily modifiable with biomolecules are of great importance for bio-interfacing and the development of biodevices. Here, a biocompatible conducting polymer based nanocomposite was electrochemically synthesized through the electropolymerization of poly(3, 4-ethylene dioxythiophene) (PEDOT) in the presence of graphene oxide (GO) as the only dopant. GO contains many negatively charged carboxyl functional groups and is highly dispersible in aqueous solutions, enabling its facile incorporation and even distribution throughout the conducting polymer. PEDOT/GO films exhibited minimal cytotoxicity after 24 h and supported neuron growth with significantly longer neurites than a control PEDOT/PSS film, indicating that the PEDOT/GO film provides a positive growth signal to developing neurons. While some of the negatively charged functional carboxyl groups of GO "dope" the PEDOT, others are exposed freely on the surface of the nanocomposite allowing easy functionalization of the PEDOT/GO composite with biomolecules. Functional laminin peptide, RNIAEIIKDI (p20), was covalently bound to the surface of the PEDOT/GO film and maintained its bioactivity, as evidenced by an increased neurite outgrowth from neurons cultured on the functionalized composite surface. The ease of biomolecule functionalization of the PEDOT/GO nanocomposite, along with its low electrochemical impedance, minimal toxicity and permissiveness to neuron growth, underlines its potential as a material for widespread biosensing, neural interfacing and tissue engineering applications.

A Graphene-PEDOT:PSS Modified Paper-Based Aptasensor for Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy Detection of Tumor Marker.

Project description:A graphene and poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) modified conductive paper-based electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) aptasensor has been successfully fabricated by a simple and continuous coating process. A graphene/PEDOT:PSS modified paper electrode forms the nanocomposite providing a conductive and sensitive substrate for further aptamer functionalization of the biosensor. This low-cost paper-based aptasensor exhibits its sensitivity to carcinoembryonic antigens (CEA) in standard buffer solutions and human serum samples in a linear range of 0.77-14 ng·mL-1. The limit of detection (LOD) is found to be 0.45 ng·mL-1 and 1.06 ng·mL-1 for CEA in both samples, separately. This aptamer-based sensing device was also evaluated and received a good correlation with the immunoassay detection method. The proposed paper-based aptasensor has demonstrated its potential as a rapid simple point-of-care analytical platform for early cancer diagnosis in less developed areas where manufacturing facilities, analytical instruments, and trained specialists are limited.

Nanoimprinted conducting nanopillar arrays made of MWCNT/polymer nanocomposites: a study by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.

Project description:Conducting vertical nanopillar arrays can serve as three-dimensional nanostructured electrodes with improved electrical recording and electrochemical sensing performance in bio-electronics applications. However, vertical nanopillar-array electrodes made of inorganic conducting materials by the conventional nanofabrication approach still face challenges in terms of high manufacturing costs, poor scalability, and limited carrier substrates. Here, we report a new type of conducting nanopillar array composed of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) doped polymeric nanocomposites, which are manufactured on the wafer-scale on both rigid and flexible substrates by direct nanoimprinting of perfluoropolyether nanowell-array templates into uncured MWCNT/polymer mixtures. By controlling the MWCNT ratios and the annealing temperatures during the fabrication process, MWCNT/polymer nanopillar arrays can be endowed with outstanding electrical properties with high DC conductivity (∼4 S m-1) and low AC electrochemical impedance (∼104 Ω at 1000 Hz). Moreover, by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements and equivalent circuit modeling analysis, we can decompose the overall impedance of the MWCNT/polymer nanopillar arrays in the electrolyte into multiple bulk and interfacial circuit components, and can thus illustrate their different dependences on the MWCNT ratios and the annealing temperatures. In particular, we find that an appropriate annealing process can significantly reduce the anomalous ion diffusion impedance and improve the MWCNT/polymer nanopillars' impedance properties in the electrolyte.

Ultrathin Functional Polymer Modified Graphene for Enhanced Enzymatic Electrochemical Sensing.

Project description:Grafting thin polymer layers on graphene enables coupling target biomolecules to graphene surfaces, especially through amide and aldehyde linkages with carboxylic acid and primary amine derivatives, respectively. However, functionalizing monolayer graphene with thin polymer layers without affecting their exceptional electrical properties remains challenging. Herein, we demonstrate the controlled modification of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown single layer graphene with ultrathin polymer 1,5-diaminonaphthalene (DAN) layers using the electropolymerization technique. It is observed that the controlled electropolymerization of DAN monomer offers continuous polymer layers with thickness ranging between 5?25 nm. The surface characteristics of pure and polymer modified graphene was examined. As anticipated, the number of surface amine groups increases with increases in the layer thickness. The effects of polymer thickness on the electron transfer rates were studied in detail and a simple route for the estimation of surface coverage of amine groups was demonstrated using the electrochemical analysis. The implications of grafting ultrathin polymer layers on graphene towards horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme immobilization and enzymatic electrochemical sensing of H?O? were discussed elaborately.

Label-Free, Highly Sensitive Electrochemical Aptasensors Using Polymer-Modified Reduced Graphene Oxide for Cardiac Biomarker Detection.

Project description:Acute myocardial infarction (AMI), also recognized as a "heart attack," is one leading cause of death globally, and cardiac myoglobin (cMb), an important cardiac biomarker, is used for the early assessment of AMI. This paper presents an ultrasensitive, label-free electrochemical aptamer-based sensor (aptasensor) for cMb detection using polyethylenimine (PEI)-functionalized reduced graphene oxide (PEI-rGO) thin films. PEI, a cationic polymer, was used as a reducing agent for graphene oxide (GO), providing highly positive charges on the rGO surface and allowing direct immobilization of negatively charged single-strand DNA aptamers against cMb via electrostatic interaction without any linker or coupling chemistry. The presence of cMb was detected on Mb aptamer-modified electrodes using differential pulse voltammetry via measuring the current change due to the direct electron transfer between the electrodes and cMb proteins (Fe3+/Fe2+). The limits of detection were 0.97 pg mL-1 (phosphate-buffered saline) and 2.1 pg mL-1 (10-fold-diluted human serum), with a linear behavior with logarithmic cMb concentration. The specificity and reproducibility of the aptasensors were also examined. This electrochemical aptasensor using polymer-modified rGO shows potential for the early assessment of cMb in point-of-care testing applications.

Synthesis of diamine functionalised graphene oxide and its application in the fabrication of electrically conducting reduced graphene oxide/polymer nanocomposite films.

Project description:The focus of research in diamine functionalised graphene oxide (GO) has been limited to the use of diamines either as crosslinker or to achieve simultaneous functionalisation, reduction and stitching of GO sheets, especially in the case of ethylene diamine (EDA). Controlling the extent of stitching and functionalisation has to date remained a challenge. In particular, synthesis of colloidally stable monofunctionalised GO-NH2 with dangling amine groups using diamines has remained elusive. This has been the limiting factor towards the utility of EDA functionalised GO (GO-NH2) in the field of polymer-based nanocomposites. We have synthesised colloidally stable GO-NH2 with dangling amine groups and subsequently demonstrated its utility as a surfactant to synthesize colloidally stable waterborne polymer nanoparticles with innate affinity to undergo film formation at room temperature. Thermally annealed dropcast polymer/GO-NH2 nanocomposite films exhibited low surface roughness (∼1 μm) due to the homogeneous distribution of functionalised GO sheets within the polymer matrix as observed from confocal laser scanning microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The films exhibited considerable electrical conductivity (∼0.8 S m-1), demonstrating the potential of the GO-NH2/polymer nanocomposite for a wide range of applications.

Bio-functionalized graphene-graphene oxide nanocomposite based electrochemical immunosensing.

Project description:We report a novel in-situ electrochemical synthesis approach for the formation of functionalized graphene-graphene oxide (fG-GO) nanocomposite on screen-printed electrodes (SPE). Electrochemically controlled nanocomposite film formation was studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman spectroscopy. Further insight into the nanocomposite has been accomplished by the Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy. Configured as a highly responsive screen-printed immunosensor, the fG-GO nanocomposite on SPE exhibits electrical and chemical synergies of the nano-hybrid functional construct by combining good electronic properties of functionalized graphene (fG) and the facile chemical functionality of graphene oxide (GO) for compatible bio-interface development using specific anti-diuron antibody. The enhanced electrical properties of nanocomposite biofilm demonstrated a significant increase in electrochemical signal response in a competitive inhibition immunoassay format for diuron detection, promising its potential applicability for ultra-sensitive detection of range of target analytes.

Electrically Conducting Hydrogel Graphene Nanocomposite Biofibers for Biomedical Applications.

Project description:Conductive biomaterials have recently gained much attention, specifically owing to their application for electrical stimulation of electrically excitable cells. Herein, flexible, electrically conducting, robust fibers composed of both an alginate biopolymer and graphene components have been produced using a wet-spinning process. These nanocomposite fibers showed better mechanical, electrical, and electrochemical properties than did single fibers that were made solely from alginate. Furthermore, with the aim of evaluating the response of biological entities to these novel nanocomposite biofibers, in vitro studies were carried out using C2C12 myoblast cell lines. The obtained results from in vitro studies indicated that the developed electrically conducting biofibers are biocompatible to living cells. The developed hybrid conductive biofibers are likely to find applications as 3D scaffolding materials for tissue engineering applications.

Ratiometric electrochemical detection of kojic acid based on glassy carbon modified MXene nanocomposite.

Project description:The significance of developing a selective and sensitive sensor for quality control purposes is underscored by the prevalent use of kojic acid (KA) in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food items. KA's utility stems from its ability to inhibit tyrosinase activity. However, the instability of KA and its potential adverse effects have created a pressing need for accurate and sensitive sensors capable of analyzing real samples. This research introduces an electrochemical ratiometric sensor designed to accurately detect KA in actual cosmetic and food samples. The ratiometric sensor offers distinct advantages such as enhanced selectivity, reproducibility, and sensitivity. It achieves this by leveraging the ratio between two output signals, thereby producing reliable and undistorted results. The sensor is constructed by modifying a Glassy Carbon Electrode (GCE) with a nanocomposite consisting of Ti3C2 MXene, Prussian blue, and gold nanoparticles. The incorporation of MXene and gold nanoparticles heightens sensitivity and reduces impedance. Meanwhile, the Prussian blue signal diminishes proportionally with increasing KA concentration, forming the basis for the ratiometric sensing mechanism. The outcomes of the study reveal a broad linear range (1-600 μM), a low detection limit (1 μM), and strong selectivity for KA. These findings suggest the sensor's potential efficacy in quality control across cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food products.

A reduced graphene oxide-β-cyclodextrin nanocomposite-based electrode for electrochemical detection of curcumin.

Project description:Curcumin is a polyphenolic compound with anti-oxidative and anti-cancer properties that is obtained from turmeric plants. Several studies have demonstrated that cancer cells are not killed unless they are exposed to 5-50 mM of curcumin. Consequently, it is vital to control the concentration of curcumin in cancer therapy. In this study, a sensitive electrochemical sensor was fabricated based on a beta-cyclodextrin-reduced graphene oxide (β-CD-rGO) nanocomposite for measuring curcumin concentration. The effects of experimental factors were investigated and the optimum parametric conditions were determined using the Taguchi optimization method. The β-CD-rGO modified electrode exhibited good electrochemical properties for curcumin detection. The results of differential pulse voltammetry experiments unveiled that the sensor shows a linear response to curcumin concentration over the range of 0.05-10 mM with a detection limit of 33 nM and sensitivity of 4.813 μA μM-1. The fabricated sensor exhibited selectivity in the presence of other electroactive species, e.g., propranolol, clomipramine and clonazepam.
