Composites of poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly (styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT: PSS) and reduced graphene oxide
(rGO) have been prepared by solution mixing and applied as electro-active paper. The effect of different solvent on
conductivity was investigated; conductivity increased with treatment of electro-active paper with ethylene glycol by more
than 250 times. Other solvents like methanol and H2SO4 were also used to treat the PEDOT: PSS/rGO based electro-active
paper and showed inferior conductivity enhancement compared to ethylene glycol. The result provide direct evidence that the
improvement in electric conductivity on paper substrate by ethylene glycol is mainly caused by conformational rearrangement
in the polymer and ordering of PEDOT fibre over electro-active paper. Reduce graphene oxide increased the electrochemical
properties of electro-active paper, probing by Fe(CN)63-/4- redox species using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy
and chronoamperometry method. This electrochemical behavior makes the ethylene glycol-treated PEDOT: PSS/rGO paper
electrode (electro-active paper) a promising platform for low cost electrochemical biosensor. The results of electrochemical
response studies conducted onto anti-CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen) immobilized electro-active paper for human
carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) detection, reveals high sensitivity of 25.8 �¼A ml ng-1 in a physiological range, 1-10 ng ml-1.
