Fabrication of Polydopamine Coating and Its Application in Glucose Sensor
Polydopamine (PDA) film coatings are multifunctional substances because these coatings can adhere to nearly all known solid materials. The self-polymerization of dopamine in aqueous solution was investigated in this study; PDA films are an effective platform for further functionalization
similar to the reduction of silver ions into silver nanoparticles (NPs). The films provide a new method to attach metal NPs on substrates. Through this simple method, glucose sensors based on this kind of Ag NPs/ITO exhibited a detection limit of about 10 μM and presented a good
sensitivity enough for real use (3–8 mM).
