Abstract

The spontaneous adsorption of the dendron 3,5-Bis (3,5-dinitrobenzoylamino) benzoic acid (D-NO2) onto gold and carbon electrodes produced conductive surfaces with electroactive chemical functions. A comparative electrochemical behavior of both electrodes after dendron immobilization led us to conclude that the self-assembly of D-NO2 on carbon is faster and stronger. Considering this advantage, the surface of magnetic maghemite nanoparticles (MNPs) was modified using D-NO2. Firstly, MNPs were modified with APS as silane coupling agent and afterwards, D-NO2 was covalently attached to the surface, achieving nitro-functionalized MNPs. Subsequently, the immobilization of these modified MNPs onto glassy carbon surfaces was explored to generate a novel platform promising for biosensors development.
