            Abstract : 
In this work, the concentration of copper nanoparticles in virgin coconut oil were measured using surface plasmon resonance technique, and the gold layer was modified by using Polypyrrole Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube composite layer. The concentration of nanoparticles and angle of resonance shifted from 0.066 mg/L to 0.71 mg/L and from 64.779° to 64.96°, respectively, and the sensitivity of sensor is about 0.01 mg/L.
