A new nanocomposites series of polypyrrole/reduced graphene oxide (PPy/rGO) and covalently bonded with aryl 4-carboxybenzene diazonium salt (PPy/rGO-aryl-COOH) were prepared by simple one-step chemical oxidative synthesis. Spin coating technique was used to deposit the as-prepared on BOPET substrate for testing their chemiresistive sensitivity properties towards online detection (NO2) vapors at...

Low hydrophilicity of graphene is one of the major obstacles for biomaterials application. To create some hydrophilic groups on graphene is addressed this issue. Herein, COOH+ ion implantation modified graphene (COOH+/graphene) and COOH functionalized graphene were designed by physical ion implantation and chemical methods, respectively. The structure and surface properties of COOH+/graphene an...

Catechin (Cat) is one of the primary functional components tea, and its accurate detection significant for understanding health benefits tea. In this study, cyclodextrin nanosponges (CDNS) were prepared employed to combine with graphene quantum dots (GQDs) carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH) form a CDNS/GQDs/MWCNTs-COOH composite. Scanning electron microscope X-ray diffract...

background: boophilus tick is responsible for the transmission of some pathogens (types of germs) and the reduction of fertility in cattles. tropomyosin protein plays an important role in regulating actin function, immune and allergic reactions and vaccine production. objectives: accurate identification of antigenic determinants (epitopes) is difficult, time consuming and not economic, thus we ...

Polyvinylcaprolactam (PVCap) is an economic kinetic inhibitor for hydrate formation in pipelines during oil and gas transportation. However, its application limited because of the low inhibition performance under certain conditions. In this work, a modified PVCap on chain end proposed. 2-amino-3-propionic acid mercapto-terminated polyvinyl caprolactam (PVCap-NH2-COOH) was synthesized as KHI met...

Over the past years, DNA biosensors have been developed to analyze DNA interaction and damage that have important applications in biotechnological researches. The immobilization of DNA onto a substrate is one key step for construction of DNA electrochemical biosensors. In this report, a direct approach has been described for immobilization of single strand DNA onto carboxylic acid-functionalize...
