A new glucose biosensor has been fabricated by immobilizing glucose oxidase into a copper dispersed sol-gel derived ceramic-graphite composite. The copper in the biocomposite offers excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the reduction (at -0.2 V) as well as oxidation (at +0.45 V) of hydrogen peroxide liberated in the enzymatic reaction enabling sensitive and selective determination of glucose. A linear response to glucose in the concentration range between 2.7 x 10(-5) to 4.0 x 10(-3) M with a correlation coefficient of 0.9987 and 4.0 x 10(-5) to 5.6 x 10(-3) M with a correlation coefficient of 0.9989 were observed with the electrocatalytic reduction and oxidation, respectively. Ascorbic acid and uric acid did not interfere with the glucose measurement during catalytic reduction at -0.2 V, a Nafion membrane was used to eliminate these interferences during the electrocatalytic oxidation at +0.45 V. The combination of copper catalysis and the promising feature of sol-gel biocomposite favor the sensitive and selective determination of glucose with improved analytical capabilities.

Bacterial infections are a common cause of clinical complications associated with the use of orthodontic microimplants. Biofilm formation on their surfaces and subsequent infection of peri-implant tissues can result in either exfoliation or surgical removal of these medical devices. In order to improve the properties of microimplants, hybrid coatings enriched with silver nanoparticles, calcium, and phosphorus were investigated.

Under industrial conditions, efficient catalytic oxidation of Chlorinated volatile organic compounds is an important challenge, not only because of the poisonous effect of Chlorinated volatile organic compounds on catalysts, but also because of their high reaction temperature, which has an adverse impact on industrialization. In a recent article ( Ru/CeO ) [1], we developed a strategy for preparing a simple and efficient monolithic catalyst for the catalytic combustion of chlorobenzene. Ru/CeO was loaded on the industrial support cordierite by a Sol-gel method.

Exploiting solid powder fluorescence holds significant potential in diverse domains including medicine and forensics. Conventional fingerprint detection methods often fall short due to low contrast, sensitivity, and high toxicity. To addressing these challenges, we present a novel method for latent fingerprint detection using fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) encapsulated into conventional or mesoporous SiO colloidal spheres (CD@SiO or CDs@m-SiO) through a surface functionalization-assisted cooperative assembly process.

This paper presents the results of a study on the characteristics of semiconductor sensors based on thin SnO films modified with antimony, dysprosium, and silver impurities and dispersed double Pt/Pd catalysts deposited on the surface to detect carbon monoxide (CO). An original technology was developed, and ceramic targets were made from powders of Sn-Sb-O, Sn-Sb-Dy-O, and Sn-Sb-Dy-Ag-O systems synthesized by the sol-gel method. Films of complex composition were obtained by RF magnetron sputtering of the corresponding targets, followed by technological annealing at various temperatures.

Tetraphenylethene (TPE) is known as a molecule that exhibits aggregation-induced emission (AIE). In this study, pendant hydroxyl groups were introduced onto polyfluorene with a TPE moiety. Sol-gel reactions of polydiethoxysiloxane (PDEOS) were carried out in the presence of hydroxyl-functionalized AIE polyfluorene (TPE-PF-OH) and polydimethylsiloxane carrying pendant hydroxyl groups (PDMS-OH) to immobilize AIE polyfluorene into a PDMS/SiO hybrid in an isolated dispersion state.
