Abstract
Herein, we present a simple and mild method to in situ prepare CuO nanostructures for non-enzymatic glucose sensing. A Cu-metal organic framework (Cu-MOF) precursor was first directly grown on a pencil lead electrode with 3D graphene-like surfaces (EPLE) and then in situ transformed into CuO nanorods. The CuO nanorod-modified EPLE (CuO/EPLE) shows high sensitivity (1138.32 μA mM-1 cm-2), fast response time (1.5 s) and low detection limit (0.11 μM) for glucose oxidation. It has been found that NaOH promoted the generation of ˙OH groups and Cu(III) on the CuO surface, which then facilitated the electrochemical oxidation of glucose. Signals characteristic of hydroxyl and carbon-centered radical adducts were detected by EPR. Furthermore, the CuO/EPLE sensor also shows good accuracy in glucose determination in human serum samples.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors that use functional materials to directly catalyze glucose have shown great promise in diabetes management, food control, and bioprocess inspection owing to the advantages of high sensitivity, long-term stability, and low cost. Recently, in order to produce enhanced electrochemical behavior, significant efforts have been devoted to the preparation of functional materials with regular nanostructure, as it provides high specific surface area and well-defined strong active sites for electrochemical sensing. However, the structure-performance correlation in this field has not been reviewed thoroughly in the literature. This review aims to present a comprehensive report on advanced zero- to three-dimensional nanostructures based on the geometric feature and to discuss in depth their structural effects on enzyme-free electrochemical detection of glucose. It starts by illustrating the sensing principles of nanostructured materials, followed by a detailed discussion on the structural effects related to the features of each dimension. The structure-performance correlation is explored by comparing the performance derived from diverse dimensional architectures, which is beneficial for the better design of regular nanostructure to achieve efficient enzyme-free sensing of glucose. Finally, future directions of non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensors to solve emerging challenges and further improve the sensing performance are also proposed.

Abstract
Electrochemical sensors are gaining significant demand for real-time monitoring of health-related parameters such as temperature, heart rate, and blood glucose level. A fiber-like microelectrode composed of copper oxide-modified carbon nanotubes (CuO@CNTFs) has been developed as a flexible and wearable glucose sensor with remarkable catalytic activity. The unidimensional structure of CNT fibers displayed efficient conductivity with enhanced mechanical strength, which makes these fibers far superior as compared to other fibrous-like materials. Copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles were deposited over the surface of CNT fibers by a binder-free facile electrodeposition approach followed by thermal treatment that enhanced the performance of non-enzymatic glucose sensors. Scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis confirmed the successful deposition of CuO nanoparticles over the fiber surface. Amperometric and voltammetric studies of fiber-based microelectrodes (CuO@CNTFs) toward glucose sensing showed an excellent sensitivity of ∼3000 μA/mM cm2, a low detection limit of 1.4 μM, and a wide linear range of up to 13 mM. The superior performance of the microelectrode is attributed to the synergistic effect of the electrocatalytic activity of CuO nanoparticles and the excellent conductivity of CNT fibers. A lower charge transfer resistance value obtained via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) also demonstrated the superior electrode performance. This work demonstrates a facile approach for developing CNT fiber-based microelectrodes as a promising solution for flexible and disposable non-enzymatic glucose sensors.

Abstract
Diabetes is a health disorder that necessitates constant blood glucose monitoring. The industry is always interested in creating novel glucose sensor devices because of the great demand for low-cost, quick, and precise means of monitoring blood glucose levels. Electrochemical glucose sensors, among others, have been developed and are now frequently used in clinical research. Nonetheless, despite the substantial obstacles, these electrochemical glucose sensors face numerous challenges. Because of their excellent stability, vast surface area, and low cost, various types of 2D materials have been employed to produce enzymatic and nonenzymatic glucose sensing applications. This review article looks at both enzymatic and nonenzymatic glucose sensors made from 2D materials. On the other hand, we concentrated on discussing the complexities of many significant papers addressing the construction of sensors and the usage of prepared sensors so that readers might grasp the concepts underlying such devices and related detection strategies. We also discuss several tuning approaches for improving electrochemical glucose sensor performance, as well as current breakthroughs and future plans in wearable and flexible electrochemical glucose sensors based on 2D materials as well as photoelectrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Element doping and nanoparticle decoration of graphene is an effective strategy to fabricate biosensor electrodes for specific biomedical signal detections. In this study, a novel nonenzymatic glucose sensor electrode was developed with copper oxide (CuO) and boron-doped graphene oxide (B-GO), which was firstly used to reveal rhubarb extraction’s inhibitive activity toward α-amylase. The 1-pyreneboronic acid (PBA)-GO-CuO nanocomposite was prepared by a hydrothermal method, and its successful boron doping was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), in which the boron doping rate is unprecedentedly up to 9.6%. The CuO load reaches ~12.5 wt.%. Further electrochemical results showed that in the enlarged cyclic voltammograms diagram, the electron-deficient boron doping sites made it easier for the electron transfer in graphene, promoting the valence transition from CuO to the electrode surface. Moreover, the sensor platform was ultrasensitive to glucose with a detection limit of 0.7 μM and high sensitivity of 906 μA mM−1 cm−2, ensuring the sensitive monitoring of enzyme activity. The inhibition rate of acarbose, a model inhibitor, is proportional to the logarithm of concentration in the range of 10−9–10−3 M with the correlation coefficient of R2 = 0.996, and an ultralow limit of detection of ~1 × 10−9 M by the developed method using the PBA-GO-CuO electrode. The inhibiting ability of Rhein-8-b-D-glucopyranoside, which is isolated from natural medicines, was also evaluated. The constructed sensor platform was proven to be sensitive and selective as well as cost-effective, facile, and reliable, making it promising as a candidate for α-amylase inhibitor screening.

Abstract
A super-porous hybrid platform can offer significantly increased number of reaction sites for the analytes and thus can offer advantages in the biosensor applications. In this work, a significantly improved sensitivity and selectivity of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) detection is demonstrated by a super-porous hybrid CuO/Pt nanoparticle (NP) platform on Si substrate as the first demonstration. The super-porous hybrid platform is fabricated by a physiochemical approach combining the physical vapor deposition of Pt NPs and electrochemical deposition of super-porous CuO structures by adopting a dynamic hydrogen bubble technique. Under an optimized condition, the hybrid CuO/Pt biosensor demonstrates a very high sensitivity of 2205 µA/mM·cm2 and a low limit of detection (LOD) of 140 nM with a wide detection range of H2O2. This is meaningfully improved performance as compared to the previously reported CuO-based H2O2 sensors as well as to the other metal oxide-based H2O2 sensors. The hybrid CuO/Pt platform exhibits an excellent selectivity against other interfering molecules such as glucose, fructose, dopamine, sodium chloride and ascorbic acid. Due to the synergetic effect of highly porous CuO structures and underlying Pt NPs, the CuO/Pt architecture offers extremely abundant active sites for the H2O2 reduction and electron transfer pathways.

Abstract
Development of a universal synthetic strategy for two-dimensional (2D) Earth-abundant transition metal oxides nanomaterials is highly vital toward numerous electrochemical applications. Herein, a facile and general synthesis of highly ordered two-dimensional metal oxides nanomaterials includes Co3O4, NiO, CuO, and Fe3O4 nanosheets as an electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is demonstrated. Among the synthesized 2D transition metal oxides, the Co3O4 nanosheet exhibits smallest overpotential (η) of ∼384.0 mV at a current density of 10.0 mA cm-2 and Tafel slope of ∼52.0 mV dec-1, highest mass activity of ∼112.3 A g-1 at the overpotential of ∼384.0 mV, and high turn over frequency (TOF) of 0.099 s-1, which is relatively favorable with state-of-the-art RuO2 catalyst. The present synthetic approach may unlock a brand new pathway to prepare shape-controlled Earth-abundant transition metal oxides nanomaterials for electrocatalytic OER.

Abstract
The immense need to build highly efficient catalysts has always been at the forefront of environmental remediation research. Herein, we have synthesized dual-phase copper oxide containing Cu2O and CuO originating from the same reaction using hexamethyltetramine (HMT). Simultaneously, we coupled it with g-C3N4 (g-CN), constructing a triple synergetic heterojunction, which is reported significantly less often in the literature. Hydrothermal reactions led to the formation of various catalysts, namely, Ag-Cu2O-CuO-gCN (ACCG), Ag-CuO-gCN (ACG), Ag-Cu2O-CuO (ACC) and Ag-CuO (AC), which were thoroughly characterized via XRD and FESEM to gain structural, crystallographic and morphological insights. We clearly observed the pure phase formation of the catalysts and the development of sheet-like CuO and truncated octahedrons of Cu2O fused together within the g-CN framework. Also, XPS studies revealed the presence of copper in two different oxidation states, namely, Cu2+ and Cu+. BET analysis was performed to analyze the surface area and pore volume of the catalysts, which play very significant roles in catalytic reduction. The catalytic efficiencies of the catalysts were evaluated via the reduction of 100 ppm 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) without using any light irradiation. The most efficient catalyst was ACCG, revealing the reduction of 4-NP in 4 minutes. Both Cu2O and g-CN played significant roles in reduction, following zero-order kinetics, unlike that which is often reported in the literature. We also evaluated the catalytic reduction with different concentrations of 4-NP and tuning the catalyst amount as well. A mechanism was postulated based on the XRD results of the post-catalytic reduction catalyst. The ACCG catalyst was also successfully tested as an effective dopamine sensor. The GC/ACCG electrode exhibited oxidation peak current density of 0.28 mA cm-2, which was much higher than those of the other catalysts. This unique combination of pure phase materials to form a composite as an effective catalyst as well as a sensor is an exclusive effort towards environmental remediation.

Abstract
Transition-metal nanomaterials are very important to non-enzymatic glucose sensing because of their excellent electrocatalytic ability, good selectivity, the fact that they are not easily interfered with by chloride ion (Cl-), and low cost. However, the linear detection range needs to be expanded. In this paper, Cu2O-bovine serum albumin (BSA) core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized for the first time in air at room temperature by a facile and green route. The structure and morphology of Cu2O-BSA NPs were characterized. The as-prepared Cu2O-BSA NPs were used to modify the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in a Nafion matrix. By using cyclic voltammetry (CV), the influence from scanning speed, concentration of NaOH, and load of Cu2O-BSA NPs for the modified electrodes was probed. Cu2O-BSA NPs showed direct electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of glucose in 50 mM NaOH solution at 0.6 V. The chronoamperometry result showed this constructing sensor in the detection of glucose with a lowest detection limit of 0.4 μM, a linear detection range up to 10 mM, a high sensitivity of 1144.81 μAmM-1cm-2 and reliable anti-interference property to Cl-, uric acid (UA), ascorbic acid (AA), and acetaminophen (AP). Cu2O-BSA NPs are promising nanostructures for the fabrication of non-enzymatic glucose electrochemical sensing devices.
