In this work we have developed a novel rGO-MWCNT (reduced graphene oxide-multiwalled carbon nanotube) nanocomposite material with Poly-L-Lysine functionalization which can be used for detection of biomolecules with enhanced sensitivity. The reduced GO sheets are found to play a major role as a connector and helps in the assembly of bundles of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) which may sometime play a role of upstanding nanostructures. The overall composite structure is further fully functionalized resulting in an overall high density of amino groups that can be used to capture biomolecules. The sensitivity of the as synthesized film is tested by the oxidation of cholesterol through cholesterol oxidase enzyme that is biochemically immobilized over these composite films. The test for the immobilization density of the novel films are carried out by mounting these films on sensitive thin section static micro/nano …
