The current increase of the Au/MoS 2 /Au nanolayer on the PET substrate compared to conventional bare gold electrode was due to the large surface area and the efficient electron transfer by MoS 2 NPs. Nanomaterials 2019, 9, x FOR PEER REVIEW 6 of 12 The reduction and oxidation peak currents of the Au/MoS 2 /Au nanolayer on the PET substrate derived from the redox generator were 1.13 mA and −1.17 mA, respectively, which were much higher than those peaks of the bare gold electrodes with 0.96 mA and −1.01 mA due to the large surface area and effective electron transfer of the synthesized MoS 2 NPs. The fabricated biosensor showed highly sensitive detection of gp120 with a detection limit of 0.066 pg/mL, which was more sensitive than previously reported electrochemical HIV biosensors. ./cache/cord-296921-0trs364m.txt ./txt/cord-296921-0trs364m.txt
