OBJECTIVES
The general objective of this study is to develop a novel hybrid material
with a promising potential in biosensing and diagnostics of cancer. To be
able to achieve this, the study is aimed to develop a synthetic approach in
the preparation of a two-dimensional nanohybrid system consisting of
AuNPs over PMS coated RGO, to quantify its ability in electrochemical
sensing of H2O2 and glucose in human urine, and to utilize the developed
sensor in distinguishing cancer cells from normal cells.

DISCUSSION
Morphological characterizations showed that the AuNPs had a good structure and strong interaction with the RGO-PMS hybrid. Using electrochemical
techniques, the sensor was found to have a very wide linear detection range and low detection limit compared to previously developed H2O2 sensors.
Analysis of urine samples showed that the calculated H2O2 concentrations using the sensor agree with a previous report. The sensor exhibited high reproducibility, stability, and selectivity which are all desirable properties of a nondisposable sensor. When the sensor was tested to analyze cancer cells in vitro, it
was found to be effective in distinguishing cancer cells from normal cells.
