Copper (II) Oxide and Graphene as Composite Materials for Glucose Biosensors

Abstract:

Copper (II) oxide graphene composite materials were prepared on the electrode surface at the solution of CuCl₂. The resulting composite material was characterized by cyclic voltammetry on surface of the glassy carbon electrode. Prepared copper (II) oxide graphene nanocomposite was scraped from the electrode surface and was measured Raman spectra by optical tweezers combined with micro Raman spectroscopy. This composite nanomaterial was used on determination of glucose and can be used to construct bio batteries too.
