Specific binding of a single virus to the receptors on nanowire 2 produces a conductance change (Right) characteristic of the surface charge of the virus only in nanowire 2. When the virus unbinds from the surface the conductance returns to the baseline value.
- 33. Self-Assembled Electrical Biodetector Based on Reduced Graphene Oxide Due to the presence of polar groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and epoxy groups, GO is very hydrophilic in comparison to graphene. For the purpose of device applications, the drawback when using GO is that it is an insulating material. This can be overcome by the use of a reduction procedure, which improves its conductivity, yielding reduced graphene oxide (RGO).

(c) Control device showing the field-effect characteristics of another RGO device without the antibody. RGO was covered with Staphylococcus aureus protein A (SpA) through carbodiimide coupling. SpA ensures a proper orientation of the subsequently immobilized antibodies since it has high specificity to the Fc fragments. In a second step, SpA-RGO was modified with anti-Aβ-antibodies by incubating the samples in a 50 mM antibody solution.
