We illustrate how the use of heated electrodes enhances the performance of glucose biosensors based on amperometric detection of the glucose-oxidase generated hydrogen peroxide. Nafion is shown to be an excellent matrix to protect glucose oxidase from thermal inactivation during the heating pulses. The influence of the electrode temperature upon the amperometric response is examined. Temperature pulse amperometry (TPA) has been used to obtain convenient peak-shaped analytical signals. Surprisingly, up to 67.5 °C, the activity of Nafion-entrapped glucose oxidase is greatly enhanced (24 -fold) by accelerated kinetics rather than decreased by thermal inactivation. Amperometric signals even at elevated temperatures are stable upon prolonged operation involving repetitive measurements. The linear calibration range is significantly extended.

Electrochemical glucose sensor holds significant promise for the monitoring of blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. In this study, we proposed a novel electrochemical glucose sensor based on 1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-dione (PD)/Ru(III) as a dual redox mediator. The synergistic effect of PD and Ru(III) was utilized to efficiently facilitate the electron transfer between the enzyme-active center and the electrode.

Background: About half of patients with heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have type 2 diabetes. In the STEP-HFpEF DM trial of adults with obesity-related HFpEF and type 2 diabetes, subcutaneous once weekly semaglutide 2·4 mg conferred improvements in heart failure-related symptoms and physical limitations, bodyweight, and other heart failure outcomes. We aimed to determine whether these effects of semaglutide differ according to baseline HbA.
