Non enzymatic glucose sensor based on au-ru nanoparticleswith high resistance against chloride poisoning

iabetes is the 6th most common cause of death and

can lead to serious and costly complications. To avoid

them, the patient must be able to manage his blood glucose

level. Great efforts have been devoted to improving glucose

biosensor to determine the glucose level. As enzymatic

glucose biosensors suffer frommany problems, non-enzymatic

glucose sensor based on nanoparticles was utilized to solve

these problems, because it shows good performances through

increasing the surface area and enhancing the mass transport

and catalysis. Bimetallic Au-Ru nanoparticles (NPs) with novel

core-shell morphology were prepared through a single-step

microemulsion synthesis for the decoration of multi-walled

carbon nanotubes (fMWCNTs). The presence of Ru leads to

particles with smaller diameters, improved distribution and

adhesion on fMWCNTs, affording very good accessibility to the

catalytic sites. To validate this elaborated structure, the effect of

Ru on the activity and effectiveness of the catalyst were studied

to detect glucose in alkaline solutions. Au-RuNPs/fMWCNTs

exhibitsahighsensitivityof 28.7μAmM−1cm−2 towardglucose

and provides a linear range for physiological concentrations

(1 mM – 10 mM). Contrary to Au, the Au-RuNPs/fMWCNTs

electrode is highly resistant against poisoning by chloride ions,

and the interference from the oxidation of common interfering

species is effectively suppressed. Additionally, the presence of

interfering species (fructose, galactose, ascorbic acid…) affects

only marginally the response toward glucose. The role of Ru

and the special core-shell morphology are discussed. The Au-

RuNPs/fMWCNTs electrode exhibits good selectivity, high

sensitivitytowardglucoseoxidationandapplicabilityforglucose

detection in real human serum samples, this is promising for

the future development of non-enzymatic glucose sensors.
