Article Abstract

A flexible non-enzymatic glucose sensor with high sensitivity (NiCu-LDH/CuO/NCC) was prepared by growing NiCu-layered double hydroxide (NiCu-LDH)-modified CuO nanorods on N-doped carbon cloth (NCC) using hydrothermal method and electrodeposition. The NCC provided abundant attachment sites and good electrical conductivity for CuO nanorods, and the hierarchical nanostructures (NiCu-LDH/CuO) had large specific surface area and highly catalytic active sites, which facilitated the electrooxidation of glucose. The effect of the ratio of Ni to Cu on the electrocatalytic performance of NiCu-LDH/CuO/NCC was evaluated. The results indicated that the optimized NiCu-LDH/CuO/NCC (Ni/Cu molar ratio of 2:1) had good electrocatalytic oxidation toward glucose, and exhibited high sensitivity (11.545 mA cm mM), low detection limit (0.26 μM), large linear range (0.001-1.5 mM), and good stability (95% after 28 days). Therefore, the hierarchical nanostructure is suitable for the construction of flexible non-enzymatic glucose sensors with high sensitivity, indicating that the combination of transition metal oxides and LDH provides a unique opportunity for designing high-performance electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose sensors.

Background: Emerging evidence indicates that metformin-based combination therapy may offer better glycemic control and improved tolerability compared to diabetes monotherapy. Building on this, vitamin D was considered a potential adjunct to metformin for managing type 2 diabetes. Although vitamin D is primarily recognized for its role in calcium regulation, it also appears to influence glucose metabolism and other non-skeletal functions.

The rational design and synthesis of one-dimensional hierarchical heterojunction materials for high-performance electrocatalytic applications present an enticing prospect in the field of electrochemistry. Herein, barnyardgrass-like CuO/CuO/SnO branched supernanowires were rationally designed and controllably prepared a synergistic process of co-precipitation and microwave treatment to achieve highly sensitive non-enzymatic glucose sensors. These prepared CuO/CuO/SnO ternary hierarchical heterostructures possessed a specific surface area of 102.

Impaired Renal Function Due to Reductive Stress Is Associated with Excessive Consumption of .

Antioxidants (Basel)

August 2025

Department of Cardiovascular Biomedicine, Instituto Nacional de Cardiología Ignacio Chávez, Mexico City 14080, Mexico.

Reductive stress (RS) results from the overactivity of the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems and from excess antioxidant agents that neutralize reactive oxygen species. (HSL) is a natural source of antioxidant molecules that can overload the antioxidant system. Twenty-one Wistar rats were divided into three groups: group 1 (G) G1: rats that consumed a 6% HSL infusion for one month (HSL + 6%), G2: rats that consumed a 6% HSL infusion for one month and were then given natural water for another month (HSL ± 6%), and G3: rats with natural drinking water.

Introduction: Cardiovascular aging starts early in life due to the glycation of critical proteins, though its progression remains undetected in the formative years. The glycation reaction affects all tissues by the same non enzymatic irreversible reaction. The variables are the pH, temperature, glucose concentration, and the specific protein.

Herein, a novel synthetic method is proposed to obtain hollow few-layer TiCT nanosheets@Ni-Fe layered double hydroxide microrods (TiCT@NiFe-LDH), which includes the coating process of MIL-88A microrods by two-dimensional TiCT nanosheets, the pre-adsorption process of 2-methylimidazole on the surfaces of MIL-88A@TiCT microrods, and the co-precipitation process of Ni and Fe with the interlayer of fumaric acid anions, resulting in the unique material structure of TiCT@NiFe-LDH. More importantly, hollow microrods composed of TiCT and NiFe-LDH nanosheets show the structural advantages, which are responsible for the high-performance behaviors towards the non-enzymatic detection of glucose, leading to 0.5-115.
