Graphene oxide induced growth of one-dimensional fusiform zirconia nanostructures for highly selective capture of phosphopeptides

Graphene oxide (GO) has been demonstrated as a nanostructure growth-directing template for the synthesis of fusiform zirconia nanostructures on GO planes. The obtained fusiform zirconia-GO hybrid composites (FZGO) have good dispersion ability and show highly selective capture of phosphopeptides from complex peptide mixtures.
