ResumoHerein, the surface modification of graphene oxide with silver nanoparticles was examined with the type of reducing agents, the reducing agent:AgNO3 mass ratio, reduction temperature, reduction time, and AgNO3:GO mass ratio. The optimal fabrication condition was determined based on the AgNPs density on GO, AgNPs size, and the antibacterial activity of the Ag/GO by plate colony–counting and optical density methods. The as-prepared materials were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and UV–vis spectroscopy. Results revealed that the appropriate reducing agent is ascorbic acid (AA) with the conditions: the ratio AA:AgNO3 = 1:1; reaction at 40 °C in 10 min with AgNO3:GO ratio of 1.25:1. More than 99.99 % of bacteria was inhibited, with a minimum bactericidal concentration of 50 and 100 µg/mL for P. aeruginosa, and S. aureus, respectively. Furthermore, the materials were surveyed in terms of their interface sorption and sensing applications. The maximum adsorption capacity of the nanocomposite reached 98.04 mg/L at 40–100 mg/L methylene blue, while the limit of detection for detecting Hg(II) in water was indicated to be 223 nM. Therefore, Ag/GO has shown sustainably promising usage for multiple purposes.
