Abstract

Au/polyaniline (PANI)-poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) hybrid nanoarray is fabricated for biomolecular sensing in neutral aqueous solutions. Firstly, an array of one-dimensional Au nanorods (diameter = ca. 200 nm, length = ca. 3 μm) is formed by a template-electrodeposition method using a porous anodic alumina membrane, and then a thin PANI-PSS composite layer is electropolymerized on the surface of the Au nanorods. The resulting Au/PANI-PSS hybrid nanoarray exhibits a quasi-reversible redox electrochemical process at ca. +0.11 V and electrocatalytic oxidation of reduced β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is attained with a detection limit of 0.3 μM in a neutral solution.
