Abstract
A sensing system for glucose was established based on a self-assembled copper nanoclusters (Cu NCs)-based nano-enzyme and glucose oxidase (GOD). The assembled copper nanosheets (Cu NSs) were prepared in a one-step method using 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorothiophenol (PFTP) as a reducing agent and protecting ligand. Cu NSs could be used to mimic the enzyme horseradish peroxidase. Cu NSs were endowed with excellent enzymatic catalytic activity in the oxidation of o-phenyldiamine (OPD) in the presence of H2O2. The latter could be generated in the aerobic oxidation of glucose catalyzed by GOD. Therefore, a detection method for glucose was constructed based on a Cu NSs-OPD-GOD catalytic system. This proposed sensing platform showed a standard linear range from 10 μM to 5 mM towards glucose, and the limit of detection was 5.5 μM. Finally, practical application of a sensor based on the Cu NSs nano-enzyme was verified in three sugared beverages as real samples. Our data reveal that the prepared Cu NSs could mimic peroxidase and be applied to a mixed catalytic system with GOD for glucose detection.
