Description
Diego Bolaños-Mendez and co-authors build a glucose sensor that works without enzymes in this 2024 study. Enzyme sensors are common but can be fragile and costly. Their design coats carbon nanotubes with cobalt hydroxide, forming a composite that reacts to glucose directly.
Microscope images confirmed the two materials joined well. The composite widened the active surface and raised the charge storage, which sharpened the response. Electrical tests showed steady, repeatable readings across a useful range of glucose levels typical for diluted samples. The detection limit sat near the bottom of that range. The authors present the sensor as a cheap, practical route to glucose checks.
