Cover Story: The determination of the endocrine disruptor estradiol is crucial for the protection of human health and the environment. In this study, an eco-friendly approach using bay laurel-assisted synthesis of Au nanoparticles and bio-reduction of graphene oxide in an in situ one-step process is described for the modification of a screen-printed electrode. The obtained composite, rGO-AuNP, was used as a dispersant for CNTs instead of the organic solvents and surfactants typically employed. The sensor was characterised by AFM, SEM, UV–VIS, FTIR spectroscopy, CV and DPV. The fabricated sensor's performance showed significant improvement compared to the unmodified electrode. Furthermore, this sensor is highly sensitive and reproducible, making it a potential tool for applications in environmental analysis. View this paper
