Mohammad Hassan Ramezan zadeh, Majid Seifi Department of Physics, Faculty of Science, University of Guilan, Rasht 41335, Iran ![]() We have studied the influence of single walled carbon nanotubes coated with iron oxide nanoparticles (SWCNT-iron oxide nanocomposites) on the electrochemical properties of 2- dimensional polymer matrices and applied them as the frontier materials in electrochemical biosensors. In the present study, first, we synthesized SWCNT-iron oxide nanocomposites by following a same methodology reported previously [3], and then used them as nanofillers in gelatin films to make them applicable materials for electrochemical sensing in different branches, such as food industry, high-tech packaging, new medicine, biomedical devices, agricultural industry etc. This novel work could increase the different real-life applications of electrochemical biosensors for modern mankind as well as the over-increasing elderly population health care issues. 1.
