CVDgraphenevs. highly ordered pyrolytic graphite for use in electroanalytical sensing

Abstract

We explore and contrast the electroanalytical performance of a commercially available CVD grown graphene electrode with that of edge- and basal- plane pyrolytic graphite electrodes constructed from highly ordered pyrolytic graphite for the sensing of biologically important analytes, namely β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and uric acid (UA). We demonstrate that for the analytes studied here, in the best case, the electroanalytical performance of the CVD-graphene mimics that of edge plane pyrolytic graphite, suggesting no significant advantage of utilising CVD-graphene in this context.
