This paper reports a method to enhance the electro-activity on screen printing carbon electrode (SPCE) for electrochemical sensor platform application. The method to forming uniform gold nanoparticles on reduced graphene oxide and SPCE (Au-Nps/rGO/SPCE) based on plasma-enhanced CVD process has been investigated. The results demonstrated that the Au-NPs with high density and uniform sizes were successfully introduced via CVD process where the average size and thickness are 15.9+10nm and 2.18+0.4nm respectively. A high ID/IG ratio for Au-NPs/rGO is 1.01 which 44% higher compared to GO ID/IG ratio was observed in the Raman spectrum suggesting more defective sites on the surface of Au NPS/rGO. The redox performance of Au-NPs/rGO/SPCE has also been measured and compared with rGO/SPCE and the results shown that rGO decorated with Au-NPs has a highest redox current. The peak currents of Au-NPs/rGO are significantly increased compared to the bare SPCE with increment from 0.05mA to 0.14mA. This result is proportional with the effective surface area for SPCE that has been decorated with Au-NPs/rGO where the effective area is increased from 0.126cm2 to 0.166cm2. The peak potential at 0.01V which was found to shift up to 0.4V as the scan rate increases suggested that reaction is electrochemically reversible.

The study reports a facile and eco-friendly approach for nanomaterial synthesis and enzyme immobilization. A corresponding glucose biosensor was fabricated by immobilizing the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and glucose oxidase (GOD) multilayer films onto the polypyrrole (PPy)/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) via the electrodeposition and self-assembly. PPy and graphene oxide were first coated on the surface of a bare GCE by the electrodeposition. Then, AuNPs and GOD were alternately immobilized onto PPy-RGO/GCE electrode using the electrodeposition of AuNPs and self-assembly of GOD to obtain AuNPs-GOD multilayer films. The resulting PPy-RGO-(AuNPs-GOD)n/GCE biosensors were used to characterize and assess their electrocatalytic activity toward glucose using cyclic voltammetry and amperometry. The response current increased with the increased number of AuNPs-GOD layers, and the biosensor based on four layers of AuNPs-GOD showed the best performance. The PPy-RGO-(AuNPs-GOD)4/GCE electrode can detect glucose in a linear range from 0.2 mM to 8 mM with a good sensitivity of 0.89 μA/mM, and a detection limit of 5.6 μM (S/N = 3). This study presents a promising eco-friendly biosensor platform with advantages of electrodeposition and self-assembly, and would be helpful for the future design of more complex electrochemical detection systems.

Palm oil is one of the major oils and fats produced in the world today. The quality of palm oil is crucial to be investigated, and one of the quality indices is free fatty acid (FFA) content. Therefore, in this study, an electrochemical approach for the determination of FFA has been explored as an alternative to replace the conventional method (titration method). The electrochemical method was developed based on electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (rGO) coupled with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) deposited onto a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) via drop-casting technique. The voltammetric behaviour of 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (VK3) in the presence of palmitic acid at the modified electrode was investigated in an acetonitrile/water mixture containing lithium perchlorate (LiClO4). The electrochemical detection of palmitic acid was based on the voltammetric reduction of VK3 to form the corresponding hydroquinone which is proportional to the concentration of palmitic acid. Under optimum conditions, the developed method showed a good linear relationship towards palmitic acid in the concentration ranging from 0.192 mM to 0.833 mM with the detection limit of 0.015 mM. The exploration of the developed system is expected to achieve high sensitivity and excellent selectivity towards the determination of FFA content in palm oil.
