Diabetes mellitus is a debilitating disease that affects each and every organ of human body. Hence it is important to continuously monitor the glucose level throughout the day and night. Glucose sensors are in great demand due to a rapid increase in diabetic community. A strategy has been implemented here to fabricate silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with the support of functionalized carbon nanotubes (f-CNTs). Silver/carbon nanotubes (Ag/CNTs) nanocomposite electrode have been prepared by electrochemical process on Fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) glass, by varying silver (Ag) concentrations for non-enzymatic glucose sensor. The variable Ag concentration in the morphology of Ag/CNTs nanocomposite has influenced the electrical conductivity, oxidation and reduction potential and electrochemical activity of glucose. Highest current density and good electrocatalytic activity for electrodes are obtained at 70 mM concentration of silver in Ag/CNTs composite. The present study indicates that the Ag/CNTs electrode is a possible substitute of the expensive glassy carbon electrode for enzyme-free glucose sensors.

This study reports on the development of a highly sensitive non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor based on a two-dimensional TiCT/MWCNT-OH nanocomposite for the detection of paraoxon-based pesticide. The synergistic effect between the TiCT nanosheet and the functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes enhanced the sensor's conductivity and catalytic activity. The nanocomposite demonstrates superior electrochemical and electroanalytical performance compared to the pristine TiCT and MWCNT-OH in detecting paraoxon-ethyl in fruit samples (green and red grapes), with a linear response range from 0.

Due to their ease of synthesis and large specific surface area, Ni(OH) nanosheets have emerged as promising electrochemical sensing materials, attracting significant attention in recent years. Herein, a series of oxy-hydroxides based on Ni(OH) nanosheets, including NiO/Ni(OH)@NF and (MNi)O/Ni(OH)@NF (M = Co, Fe, or Cr), are successfully synthesized the electrochemical oxidation and incorporation strategies. Electrochemical tests demonstrate that these Ni(OH)-based oxy-hydroxides exhibit excellent electrochemical oxidation activity for glucose in alkaline electrolyte.

Accurate and rapid monitoring of the glucose concentration in blood is essential for the prevention and treatment of diabetes. However, existing glucose sensors still have room for improvement in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, and stability. Benefiting from the fully exposed metal sites and uniform coordination environment, single-atom catalysts (SACs) have exhibited unique electrochemical sensing performances and received extensive attention in blood glucose detection.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the most critical public health problems in the contemporary world because they are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most substantial risk factors for developing CVDs. Glycated hemoglobin is a product of the non-enzymatic glycation of hemoglobin present in erythrocytes.
