Abstract
The bioelectrochemical characteristics of a novel multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT)-based biosensor for glucose detection are studied and compared with those of glassy carbon (GC)-based biosensor. The MWNT-based biosensor exhibits a strong glucose response at applied potentials of 0.65 and 0.45 V versus Ag/AgCl, respectively, while GC-based biosensor shows a weak glucose response at 0.65 V and no response at 0.45 V. Besides, the MWNT-based biosensor shows a high stability of 86.7% of the initial activity to glucose after four-month storage, much higher than 37.2%, the corresponding value for a GC-based biosensor. The detection mechanism of the MWNT-based biosensor is also discussed in detail.Entities:
