Abstract
The use of fluorescent gel blends with GQDs provides new insights into gel formation and hydrogen peroxide detection utilizing the peroxidase-like catalytic activity of graphene quantum dots. This hybrid hydrogel enhances the performance of hybrid hydrogel properties by a low molecular weight gelator with the assistance of GQDs and phosphate buffer and taking an advantage of sensing application with a highly potential sensitivity and stability.
