Three-dimensional macroscopic graphene supported vertically-ordered mesoporous silica-nanochannel film for direct and ultrasensitive detection of uric acid in serum

Direct, rapid and sensitive detection of physiologically-relevant active small molecules (ASMs) in complex biological samples is highly desirable. Herein, we present an electrochemical sensing platform by combining three-dimensional macroscopic graphene (3DG) and vertically-ordered mesoporous silica-nanochannel film (VMSF), which is able to directly detect ASMs in complex samples with high sensitivity and no need of tedious pretreatment....
