Ultrasensitive and selective non-enzymatic glucose detection based on pt electrode modified by carbon nanotubes@ graphene oxide/ nickel hydroxide-Nafion hybrid composite in alkaline media
Journal Title: Progress in Chemical and Biochemical Research - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
A new enzymeless glucose sensor has been fabricated and its electrocatalytic oxidation has been investigated in alkaline medium directly on the Pt Electrode modified by Activated carbon nanotubes @ graphene oxide/ nickel hydroxide-Nafion hybrid composite (PtACNT@GONHNPsNf). Under the optimized condition, the calibration curve is linear in the concentration range of 5-1100 µM using cyclic voltammetric method. The detection limit and sensitivity are 0.75 µM and 40 nA, respectively. The glucose sensor can be renewed easily in a reproducible manner by a simple polishing step and it has a long operational lifetime and short response time t90% < 1 s. In addition, the fabrication of Pt with nafion and nickel hydroxide powder was employed to eliminate the interference of ascorbic acid during the catalytic oxidation of glucose. The biosensor was used for determination of glucose in human blood serum and the oxidant with satisfactory results.
