Abstract

Abstract : A novel pnictogen-based composite, pnictogen–Au@AgNRs, for the development of a highly sensitive non-enzymatic glucose sensor. Abstract : Herein, we successfully incorporated pnictogen–Au@AgNR composites, produced by mixing shear exfoliated pnictogen nanosheets with silver shell, gold core nanorods (Au@AgNRs), as novel electrode materials towards the development of a non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensor. The findings of this study conceptually prove the feasibility of incorporating pnictogen-based composites for future development of electrochemical sensors.
