摘要
A nonenzymatic electrochemical sensor device was fabricated for glucose detection based on nickel nanoparticles (NiNPs)/straight multi-walled carbon nanotubes (SMWNTs) nanohybrids, which were synthesized through in situ precipitation procedure. SMWNTs can be easily dispersed in solution after mild sonication pretreatment, which facilitates the precursor of NiNPs binding to their surface and results in the homogeneous distribution of NiNPs on the surface of SMWNTs. The morphology and component of the nanohybrids were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), respectively. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and amperometry were used to evaluate the catalytic activity of the NiNPs/SMWNTs nanohybrids modified electrode towards glucose. It was found that the nanohybrids modified electrode showed remarkably enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of glucose in alkaline solution compared to that of the bare glass carbon electrode (GCE), the NiNPs and the SMWNTs modified electrode, attributing to the synergistic effect of SMWNTs and Ni(2+)/Ni(3+) redox couple. Under the optimal detection conditions, the as-prepared sensors exhibited linear behavior in the concentration range from 1 mu M to 1 mM for the quantification of glucose with a limit of detection of 500 nM (3 sigma). Moreover, the NiNPs/SMWNTs modified electrode was also relatively insensitive to commonly interfering species such as ascorbic acid (AA), uric acid (UA), dopamine (DA), galactose (GA), and xylose (XY). The robust selectivities, sensitivities, and stabilities determined experimentally indicated the great potential of NiNPs/SMWNTs nanohybrids for construction of a variety of electrochemical sensors.
