Highly sensitive nonenzymetic glucose sensing platform based on MOF-derived NiCo LDH nanosheets/graphene nanoribbons composite
Herein, a novel sensing platform based on NiCo layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets/graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) modified glassy carbon electrode is presented for sensitive non-enzymetic determination of glucose. In the first step, nanoflower-like NiCo LDH nanosheets were grown on the surface of ZIF-67 dodecahedron nanocrystals which used as sacrificial template and were further characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and FTIR. In the next step, in order to fabricate a mechanically stable modified electrode, the as-prepared nanosheets were mixed with narrow graphene nanoribbons synthesized through longitudinal unzipping of MWCNTs as an effective binder which in one hand increase the mechanical stability of the composite film and on the other hand, enhance the electrical conductivity of the final modified electrode. The catalytic behavior of the NiCo NSs/GNR modified electrode toward the electro-oxidation of glucose was investigated in NaOH alkaline solution by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and amperometry techniques. As an enzymeless glucose sensor, the proposed sensing platform exhibited fast amperometric responses with high sensitivity (344 mu AmM-1 cm(-2)) and low detection limit of 0.6 mu M within a wide dynamic linear range from 5 mu M to 0.8 mM. Moreover, the electrode also demonstrated excellent selectivity toward glucose in the presence of common interfering species such as AA, DA and HA as well as good long-term stability which makes it an appropriate candidate for further practical applications.
