Graphene is a one-atom-thick allotrope of carbon. Due to its unique mechanical and electronic properties, graphene has been touted as very promising material for a great number of applications. In particular, biosensor is a device for the detection of specific analyte which combines a biological compound with a physicochemical detector component. There are three major components that complete a biosensor, namely the sensitive biological element, the transducer or detector element and also the associated electronics or signal processors. The working principle of graphene-based enzymatic electrodes is based on the direct electrochemistry of enzymes whereby electron transfer occurs between the electrode and the active centre of the enzymes without the participation of any mediators or reagents. In the current work, a graphene based glucose biosensor was prepared. The reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-glucose oxidase (GOx) was prepared from graphite powder as starting material. Material synthesis involved pre-oxidation of graphite to graphite oxide followed by further oxidation to graphene oxide. Subsequently, hydrazine monohydrate was used to reduce the graphene oxide to reduced graphene oxide. Finally, glassy carbon electrode (GCE) /RGO-GOx based glucose sensor was fabricated.
