Unique Nonenzymatic Glucose Sensor Using a Hollow-Shelled Triple Oxide Mn-Cu-Al Nanocomposite.

ABSTRACT: Glucose monitoring devices for diabetes mellitus, which is a worldwide significant health issue, have attracted attention of many researchers. Herein, we report a hollow Mn-Cu-Al oxide nanocomposite (HMCA) by a microwave-assisted technique showing excellent sensing abilities toward glucose. Also, it possesses a superb supercapacitor activity described in our previous paper. The sensitivity value of the nanocomposite is 2.194 mA mM^-1 cm^-2 with a low detection limit of 0.43 μM (S/N = 3). The high sensitivity and low detection limit were the results of the large surface area of the nanocomposite and the redox nature of CuO and MnO₂. It shows a selective detection of glucose levels in blood serum. The hollow nanocomposite has been useful for monitoring the gluc
