Abstract
Glucose concentration is a crucial parameter for assessing human health. Over recent years, non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensors have drawn considerable attention due to their substantial progress. This review explores the common mechanism behind the transition metal-based electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose molecules through classical electrocatalytic frameworks like the Pletcher model and the Hydrous Oxide-Adatom Mediator model (IHOAM), as well as the redox reactions at the transition metal centers. It further compiles the electrochemical characterization techniques, associated formulas, and their ensuing conclusions pertinent to transition metal-based non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensors. Subsequently, the review covers the latest advancements in the field of transition metal-based active materials and support materials used in non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensors in the last decade (2014-2023). Additionally, it presents a comprehensive classification of representative studies according to the active metal catalysts components involved.

Flexible electrochemical sensor with Fe/Co bimetallic oxides for sensitive analysis of glucose in human tears. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1243:340781. [PMID: 36697172 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.340781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 01/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
The construction of uniformly dispersed structure with abundant active sites is crucial for fast electron transport and advancing electrocatalytic reactions. Herein, FexCoyO4-rGO was prepared by depositing Fe and Co bimetallic oxides in-situ on reduced graphene oxide through a simple process combined hydrothermal reaction and calcination. Fe was elaborately introduced into the synthesis of metal oxides to alleviate the aggregation of cobalt oxides and obtain nanocomposites with homogeneously structured and abundant redox sites, and the bimetallic oxides nanomaterials had enhanced electrocatalysis under the synergistic effect. The flexible electrode prepared from FexCoyO4-rGO exhibited excellent detection performance for glucose with a detection limit down low to 0.07 μM and a sensitivity of 1510 μM cm-2 mA-1. The adoption of flexible substrates improved the wearability of the electrode and broadened its practicality for detecting biomarkers on the skin surface. The constructed sensor was successfully used in the dynamic analysis of glucose content in tears, and the results were highly consistent with the test outcome of a commercial test kit, demonstrating its application prospects in non-invasive epidermal diabetes mellitus diagnosis.

Abstract
Photocatalytic water splitting offers an economic and sustainable pathway for producing hydrogen as a zero-emission fuel, but it still suffers from low efficiencies limited by visible-light absorption capacity and charge separation kinetics. Herein, we report an interface-engineered 2D-C3N4/NiFe layered double hydroxide (CN/LDH) heterostructure that shows highly enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) rate with excellent long-term stability. The morphology and band gap structure of NiFe-LDH are precisely regulated by employing NH4F as a structure-directing agent, which enables a fine interfacial tuning via coupling with 2D-C3N4. The formation of a type II interface in CN/LDH enlarges the active surface area and promotes the charge separation efficiency, leading to an HER rate of 3087 μmol g-1 h-1, which is 14 times higher than that of 2D-C3N4. This study highlights a rational interface engineering strategy for the formation of a heterostructure with a proper hole transport co-catalyst for designing effective water-splitting photocatalysts.

Abstract
Bismuth is the least toxic element among heavy metals, an outstanding advantage for environmental and health considerations. Yet, utilizing bismuth as anodic electrocatalyst is hindered by the formation of a spreading Bi(OH)3 inhibitor layer during the anodic process. Herein, we report that bismuth nanoparticles, produced using laser ablation, can avoid such drawbacks. The production of Bi(V) species assists polyol electrooxidation. For glucose, instead of the commonly reported gluconic acid as the product, the Bi(V) species enables highly selective oxidation and C–C bond cleavage to produce arabinonic acid, erythronic acid, and eventually glyceric acid. We not only generate high-valent Bi(V) species for catalytic applications, especially for bioelectrocatalysis where the less toxic bismuth is highly appreciated, but also present Bi nanoparticle as a highly selective electrocatalyst that can break C–C bond. We believe that Bi electrocatalyst can find broader applications in electrochemical biomass conversion and electrosynthesis. Stabilizer-free bismuth nanoparticles (Bi NPs) are synthesized by laser ablation Bi NPs show activity toward polyol electrooxidation, breaking C-C bond The in situ generated Bi(V) is essential for the electrocatalytic oxidation Unlike Bi polycrystal, surface oxide layers do not inhibit the activity of Bi NPs

Highly sensitive non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensor based on dumbbell-shaped double-shelled hollow nanoporous CuO/ZnO microstructures. Sci Rep 2021; 11:344.

Abstract
A high-performance non-enzymatic glucose sensor based on hybrid metal-oxides is proposed. Dumbbell-shaped double-shelled hollow nanoporous CuO/ZnO microstructures (CuO/ZnO-DSDSHNM) were prepared via the hydrothermal method using pluronic F-127 as a surfactant. This structure is studied by various physicochemical characterizations such as scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy, elemental mapping techniques, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. This unique CuO/ZnO-DSDSHNM provides both a large surface area and an easy penetrable structure facilitating improved electrochemical reactivity toward glucose oxidation. The prepared CuO/ZnO-DSDSHNM was used over the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) as the active material for glucose detection and then coated by Nafion to provide the proposed Nafion/CuO/ZnO-DSDSHNM/GCE. The fabricated glucose sensor exhibits an extremely wide dynamic range from 500 nM to 100 mM, a sensitivity of 1536.80 µA mM-1 cm-2, a low limit of detection of 357.5 nM, and a short response time of 1.60 s. The proposed sensor also showed long-term stability, good reproducibility, favorable repeatability, excellent selectivity, and satisfactory applicability for glucose detection in human serum samples. The achieved high-performance glucose sensing based on Nafion/CuO/ZnO-DSDSHNM/GCE shows that both the material synthesis and the sensor fabrication methods have been promising and they can be used in future researches.

Abstract
Alumina is a valuable raw material for the production of adsorbents, abrasives, polishing agents, refractory materials, and aluminum. It is generally produced from bauxites through the Bayer process. Several organic compounds such as humic matters and oxalates are introduced into the Bayer liquor during the digestion process, resulting in significant hazards to precipitation of aluminum hydroxide. Therefore, it is crucial to remove these organic compounds from Bayer liquor to enhance the production of alumina. It is difficult to remove these organic compounds. Various approaches for organics removal from Bayer liquors have been developed in the past few decades, including thermal treatment, chemical precipitation, membrane technology, photocatalytic degradation, biodegradation, and wet oxidation. This paper reviews the technologies for organics removal from Bayer liquor and the relative mechanisms proposed in the literature to identify its essential parameters. Chemicals dosage, temperature, pH value, reaction time, and solution concentration are essential factors in the process. Removal efficiency, green principle, and economic viability of various methods are discussed, and potential technologies are suggested. Wet oxidation appears to be a promising method for removing organic matters in Bayer liquors. Moreover, the combination of wet oxidation and electrooxidation shows excellent potential in organics removal. Various approaches for removing organic compounds and perspectives for further investigation are proposed.
