Electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose sensors：recent progress and perspectives

The detection of glucose has important significance in clinical medicine and the food industry, especially in the diagnosis of diabetes. In recent years, electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose sensors have attracted intensive attention to detect the glucose level with great progress. In this review, we summarize a variety of non-enzymatic glucose sensor materials, including precious metals Pt, Au and their alloy metals, non-precious transition metals and their metal oxides, composites and other functional materials. Moreover, fundamental insights into the reaction mechanism and influencing factors of materials are given. Finally, this review discusses the perspectives and challenges of future developments in electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose detection.
