A non-enzymatic glucose sensing nanomaterial which consists of the NiCo2O4 nanosheets grown on reduced graphene oxide (NiCo2O4@rGO) is synthesized by a simple co-precipitation procedure. Firstly, the morphology and composition of the NiCo2O4@rGO are analyzed. Subsequently, the glucose sensing characteristics of the NiCo2O4@rGO are researched by Cyclic Voltammetry and Amperometry. The test results show that the prepared NiCo2O4@rGO has excellent glucose sensing properties. In the two linear detection range of 0.01mM-5.50mM and 5.50mM-15.50mM, the sensitivity reaches 4372.9μA·mM-1cm-2 and 1686.1μA·mM-1cm-2, respectively. In addition, in order to reduce the cost of electrochemical testing and improve the convenience and practicability of detection, a portable potentiostatic glucose detection system based on three electrodes is designed. Through testing, it is found that the non-enzymatic glucose detection system based on NiCo2O4@rGO has good practical application potential in the field of glucose detection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
