industrial researchers because of its broad applications in diabetes management, food quality control and bioprocess inspection Compared with enzymatic glucose sensors, non-enzymatic glucose sensors are more relevant because of their stable, sensitive, and low-cost process The simple and low-cost synthesis of advanced nanomaterials for non-enzymatic glucose sensor is vital in practical application Here, we introduce a facile chemical method for the synthesis of nickel(II) hydroxide nanostructures on porous nickel foam (NF) for electrochemical glucose sensor The properties of the synthesized material were characterised by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy The fabricated materials were applied for glucose concentration measurement in 0.1 M NaOH by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry The Ni(OH)2/NF sensor is stable and has excellent sensitivity with low detection limit based on the signal-to-noise ratio of and high selectivity for glucose detection in the presence of common interfering species The Ni(OH)2/Ni electrode was successfully tested in measuring glucose concentration in real serum samples The fabricated Ni(OH)2/NF electrode can be used as a low-cost, sensitive, stable and selective platform for non-enzymatic glucose sensor TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION CHAPTER LITERATURE REVIEWS 1.1 Overview of glucose, blood sugar, and diabetes mellitus 1.2 Glucose sensors 1.2.1 Introduction

NiO-modified nickel foam electrodes with a scan rate of 50 mV s-1 The CVs of the NiO/NF electrodes show higher peak current signals, which indicates that the electrochemical properties of the electrode was enhanced after deposition of NiO nanohives Additionally, with no significant shift of CVs plots of three different NiO/NF electrodes synthesized under the same conditions, the synthesized electrodes presented a good reproducibility I (mA) Ni foam NiO-10m-1 NiO-10m-2 NiO-10m-3 -2 -4 -6 -1.0 -0.5 0.0 0.5 1.0 E (V vs Ag/AgCl) 1.5 Figure 3.15: CVs plots of the NF and three

4, 5, 6, mM glucose It is clear that the cathodic peak currents decrease when the glucose concentration rises The mechanism of glucose electrochemical oxidation relies on the electrocatalyst based on NiO In particular, NiO was oxidised to NiO(OH) (equation 3.8), then NiO(OH) oxidises glucose to gluconicacid while NiO(OH) was reduced to NiO (equation 3.9) The following equations represent the electrocatalytic oxidation mechanism [79][80]: E.q 3.8 E.q 3.9 When glucose is added into NaOH solution, part of NiO(OH) oxidases glucose to gluconic acid The amount of NiO(OH) participate to the equation 3.8 is reduced, and the cathodic peak current is then reduced The results demonstrate that syntheisised NiO/Ni is capable to apply for catalytic activities towards glucose oxidation in glucose electrochemical sensor The electrochemical properties of the NiO material are strongly dependent on its morphology and the substates [71][81][82] For example, in study reported by Salazar et al [83], the sputtered 50 thin film NiO on screen printed electrodes showed a redox reaction at high potential (~0.55 V) with Ag pseudo-reference electrode (a) 0.3 mM 0.4 mM 0.5 mM Current (mA) 0.2 mM

Amperometric response of NiO/NF toward glucose with a concentration range between and 0.5 mM, and (b) The plot of dependence between response current and glucose concentration at different potentials 51 He et al., [71], the hollow porous NiO modified glassy carbon was used as working electrode, where the anodic and cathodic peaks were found at about 0.48 V and 0.38 V (vs Ag/AgCl) respectively They also pointed out that the addition of glucose produces an enhancement in anodic peak current and a slight shift to higher potential, but there was almost no change in current or potential of the cathodic peak Guo et al [84] used porous honeycomb-like NiO modified NF as a working electrode for glucose sensor, and they observed the anodic and cathodic peaks at about 0.58 V and 0.28 V (vs Hg/HgO), respectively In such report, the addition of glucose produces an enhancement in anodic peak current and a slight shift to higher potential, while the cathodic peak current decreases and a slightly shifts to more positive potential It means that the anodic/cathodic peaks of Ni2+/Ni3+ can be changed depending on the substrate materials and the morphology of synthesized NiO [85] Here, our sensor showed anodic peak at +0.6 V and a cathodic peak at +0.1 V versus Ag/AgCl reference electrode in 0.1 M NaOH The difference in CVs of the NiO prepared in our study can be ascribed due to the difference in the morphology of the synthesised materials and the substrate Table 3.3: To compare the glucose electrochemical sensing of the fabricated sensors with other nickel-based sensors

study the electrocatalytic of NiO/NF for glucose oxidation, chronoamperometry was applied to measure glucose level Three voltage values were applied, that are 0.5, 0.6, and 0.7 V As shown in Fig 5a, when the glucose rises gradually from to 0.5 mM, the response current at the applied potential of 0.7 V increases linearly While the potential is at 0.5 or 0.6 V, the response currents rise nonlinearly with the increase of glucose concentration (Fig 5b) The response current at 0.7 V depends on the glucose concentration as the below function: E.q 3.10 52 Where CG is glucose concentration (mM) The sensitivity of the sensor calculated by dividing the slope to the working electrode area of 0.65 mm2 is 6.8 mA mM1 cm-2 Based on the ratio of signal-to-noise of [3], the detection limit (LOD) of the fabricated sensor was calculated at 5.7 µM These values of the fabricated sensor are compared with some other nickel-based sensors reported before (Table 1) All results indicated that the NiO/NF electrode is a capable candidate for clinical glucose detection 53 CHAPTER 4: CONCLUSIONS After the implementation of the topic and based on the analysis results presented above, we draw some conclusions as follows:  Ni(OH)2 nanohives/NF electrode was synthesized successfully by using a facile, low-cost, and instant chemical method  Nanohives with an average cavity diameter of 300–500 nm and a nanowall thickness of approximately 15 nm were homogenously formed on the surface of NF  The Ni(OH)2/NF electrode has good electrocatalytic activity toward glucose oxidation in NaOH solution with a wide linear range from to mM (R2 = 0.999), a high sensitivity (12.55 mA mM−1 cm−2), and a detection limit of 57 µM  In addition, the sensor presented good reproducibility, high stability, and good selectivity  The fabricated electrode is a potential candidate for practical application with the values of glucose recovery from 97.83% to 116.41% in real samples measured  Successfully synthesis of NiO nanohives based on Ni(OH)2-precursors, the synthesized NiO nanohives also exhibit the good electrocatalytic activity toward glucose oxidation in NaOH solution The low cost, high sensitivity, good stability, and high selectivity of the fabricated sensor indicate that the sensor has great potential application in nonenzymatic electrochemical biosensors for blood glucose detection Besides the good results that the thesis has achieved, there are still some issues that need to be studied further Thus, the next research orientation should be:  Continue to study the influence of other synthesized conditions on the formation of different structural morphologies of Ni(OH)2, to enhance the sensitivity toward glucose  In addition, the working electrodes will be decorated with metals (such as Au, Pt, Cu,…) or combined with other metal oxides (such as CuO, NiO,…) to improve the electrochemical behaviors for glucose measurements 54 LIST OF PUBLICATIONS Vu Thi
