The electrochemical determination of glucose concentration without using enzyme is one of the dreams that many researchers have been trying to make come true. As new materials have been reported and more knowledge on detailed mechanism of glucose oxidation has been unveiled, the non-enzymatic glucose sensor keeps coming closer to practical applications. Recent reports strongly imply that this p...

nineteen bread wheat genotypes were selected to examine the effect of glycine betaine (gb, 100 mm) on various photosynthetic gas exchange parameters under drought stress and to study the relationship of these parameters with non-enzymatic antioxidants. drought stress caused a significant decline in net co2 assimilation rate (pn), stomatal conductance (gs), intercellular co2 concentration (ci) a...

Graphene-modified Cu2O nanocomposite was synthesized under facile microwave irradiation of an aqueous solution and has been investigated as an enzyme-free glucose biosensor. Morphology and crystal structure of the graphene-modified Cu2O nanocomposite were investigated by using electron microscopy and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analyses. Also, the electrochemical performan...

Potential applicability of pristine and Al-doped boron carbide nanotube (BCN Al-BCN) as glucose (GLU) sensor is investigated using density functional theory. Adsorption GLU on top BCN leads to adsorption energy (Eads), enthalpy (ΔH), Gibbs free (ΔG) −14.82, −14.35, −0.97 kcal.mol−1, respectively. While the corresponding values for Al-BCN are calculated be –23.29, −24.17, −11.03 The detection po...

Glucose biosensors are mainly divided into two types.
