3D graphene network@WO3 nanowire composites: a multifunctional colorimetric and electrochemical biosensing platform

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Oct 4;50(76):11135-8. doi: 10.1039/c4cc04507f.

Abstract

A three dimensional graphene network (3DGN)@WO3 nanowire (NW) sensor is proposed which can perform colorimetric and electrochemical sensing techniques to detect H2O2, ascorbic acid and dopamine. The 3DGN provides three functions: anchoring, separating, conducting, while the WO3 NWs maximize surface area and catalyse reactions.
