Electrochemical biosensor based on copper sulfide/reduced graphene oxide/glucose oxidase construct for glucose detection.

Due to the current increase in the number of people suffering from diabetes worldwide, how to monitor the blood glucose level in the human body has become an urgent problem to be solved nowadays. The electrochemical sensor method can be used for real-time glucose monitoring due to its advantages of real-time monitoring capability and high sensitivity. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has great potential for application in the field of sensors due to its advantages of large specific surface area, high stability, and good electrical and thermal conductivity. Meanwhile, the synergistic effect between two-dimensional transition metal sulfides and graphene can improve the electrochemical performance of materials due to their similar mechanical flexibility and strength. This article uses flake graphite, copper sulfate, and glucose oxidase (GOx) as raw materials to prepare CuS/rGO/GOx/GCE electrodes, and explores the performance of electrode electrocatalysis for glucose. The results showed that the prepared sensor was characterized by a low detection limit (1.75 nM) and a wide linear range (0.1-100 mM) for glucose detection, displaying a good overall detection performance, and its sensing mechanism and dynamic process were also investigated. In addition, the sensor has outstanding selectivity, anti-interference, repeatability, reproducibility and practicality.
