Abstract

Development of non-enzymatic glucose sensor is essential to reduce the cost of diabetes regular monitoring. Here, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is modified with platinum and zinc oxide for non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensing in physiological conditions for the first time in the literature. The interactions between Pt, g-C3N4 and the ZnO are studied using different physicochemical characterization techniques. The Electrochemical glucose sensing at the ZnO-Pt-gC3N4 occurs at low applied potential of +0.20 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) with high sensitivity 3.34 μA/mM/cm2 and fast response (5 s) time. This sensor exhibited a wide linear range 0.25–110 mM with lower limit of detection of 0.1 µM. The architectured sensor was evaluated in human blood, serum and urine samples. The sensor is 4 time reusable in whole blood without activity deterioration. This reusable surface helps to reduce the cost of strip.
