This work presents the fabrication of a novel nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) sensor using gold-silver bimetallic nanoparticles (Au-AgNPs), poly(L-Cysteine) (P(L-Cys)) and electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE/Au-AgNPs/P(L-Cys)-ERGO). The composite electrode exhibited an excellent electrocatalytic response towards NADH at a low oxidation potential (+ 0.35V) and minimization of surface contamination due to the synergistic effects of the Au-AgNPs, polymer and ERGO. Under optimum conditions, modified sensors allowed the detection of NADH with a wide linear range from 0.083µM to 1.05mM with a low detection limit of 9.0nM (S/N = 3). Moreover, this modified electrode was also used as a sensitive ethanol biosensor, which was prepared with alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) via glutaraldehyde, bovin serum albumin and nafion (Naf). There was a linear response for ethanol in the concentration range from 0.017 to 1.845mM with a low detection limit of 5.0µM (S/N = 3). The GCE/Au-AgNPs/P(L-Cys)-ERGO/ADH/Naf electrode can be successfully used for the determination of ethanol in different commercial beverages.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009243	NAD	A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-diphosphate coupled to adenosine 5'-phosphate by pyrophosphate linkage. It is found widely in nature and is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in which it serves as an electron carrier by being alternately oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH).

D010084	Oxidation-Reduction	A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471).	Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010455	Peptides	Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS.	Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D006046	Gold	A yellow metallic element with the atomic symbol Au, atomic number 79, and atomic weight 197. It is used in jewelry, goldplating of other metals, as currency, and in dental restoration. Many of its clinical applications, such as ANTIRHEUMATIC AGENTS, are in the form of its salts.
D006108	Graphite	An allotropic form of carbon that is used in pencils, as a lubricant, and in matches and explosives. It is obtained by mining and its dust can cause lung irritation.	Graphene
D000426	Alcohol Dehydrogenase	A zinc-containing enzyme which oxidizes primary and secondary alcohols or hemiacetals in the presence of NAD. In alcoholic fermentation, it catalyzes the final step of reducing an aldehyde to an alcohol in the presence of NADH and hydrogen.

D000431	Ethanol	A clear, colorless liquid rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and distributed throughout the body. It has bactericidal activity and is used often as a topical disinfectant. It is widely used as a solvent and preservative in pharmaceutical preparations as well as serving as the primary ingredient in ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.
