Furthermore, Cu nanoparticles disturb the array structure of MOF derived films and evidently enhance their electrochemical performances in glucose detection. Electrochemical measurements indicate that the CuNi/C electrode possesses a high sensitivity of17.12 mA mM^(-1) cm^(-2), a low detection limit of 66.67 nM,and a wider linearity range from 0.20 to 2.72 mM. Additionally, the electrode exhibits good reusability, reproducibility, and stability, thereby catering to the practical use of glucose sensors.

Results showed that both chlorophyll and carotenoid contents significantly (p〈0.05) decreased with increasing Mn treatment levels (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8 mg/L) in hydroponics. The concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA) and hydrogen peroxide (H202) in the root and shoot of P hydropiper were accumulated under Mn stress. Meanwhile, the anti-oxidative functions of several important enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and peroxidase (POD) in plants were stimulated by Mn spike in leaves and roots, especially at low Mn stress; while sulfhydryl group (--SH) and glutathion (GSH) were likely involved in Mn detoxification ofP. hydropiper under high Mn stress.展开更多

This work was undertaken at Saint Peter TB specialized hospital and TekleHaimanot health center from March 2012 to May 2013.Aim: To determine changes in Non-Enzymatic Antioxidants and level of oxidative stress of tuberculosis Patients before and after taking anti tuberculosis treatment.Materials and Methods: In this comparative cross sectional study, a total of 210 individuals including: newly diagnosed TB patients as group-I (n = 70), TB patients who completed treatment as group-II (n = 70), and healthy volunteers as group-III (n = 70) were enrolled. Different methods were used to determine the parameters;vit-C (HPLC method), lipid peroxidation (thiobarbuituric acid method), and bilirubin (Colorimetric assay). Results: Vitamin-C (Vit-C) and of group-I showed a significant reduction (p < 0.001) as compared with both group-II and group-III whereas Malondialdehyde (MDA) level was increased. However, the total and direct bilirubin was not different among the groups. In group-III, there was a positive correlation between BMI and serum Vit-C (r = -0.305, p = 0.010). Vit-C showed a negative correlation with serum MDA in all the groups with values (r = -0.265, p = 0.027), (r = -0.389, p = 0.001) and (r = -0.375, p = 0.001) for group-I, group-II and group-III respectively. In addition to this Vit-C was negatively correlated with serum UA (r = -0.285, p = 0.017) in group-I. Conclusion: The findings of the current study suggest that the amount of Vit-C in the newly diagnosed TB patients and those who finished their treatment is much lower than the healthy volunteers. In contrast to this, the MDA value was significantly higher both in the newly diagnosed TB patients and TB patients who completed treatment than in healthy volunteers suggesting higher degree of oxidative stress.展开更多

The structural study of nickel oxide nanostructures was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray differaction (XRD) techniques. Nickel oxide nanostructures are highly dense, uniform and possess good crystalline quality. The so prepared structures were investigated for their electrochemical properties by cyclic voltammetry and amperometric techniques. The nickel oxide flower like morphology has shown good electrochemical performances for the oxidation of glucose. The presented sensing material was able to detected glucose in a wide range of concentration of 0.001 mM to 8 mM with a high sensitivity (123 μmA/mM) and regression coefficient of 0.99. Moreover, the NiO nanostructures based sensor is highly reproducible, stable, exhibiting a fast response time and selective in the response. All the obtained results indicate the potential use of this material in the development of enzyme free sensors for the detection of glucose.展开更多

The morphology and topography of the MoOx/AuNPs composite were char-acterized by scan electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy respectively, and the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose at the MoOx/AuNPs composite film was inves-tigated and analyzed in detail. It was shown that the MoOx/AuNPs composite was of strong electrocatalytic activity towards oxidation of glucose as well as other saccharides, so that an attempt was made for direct voltammetric determination of glucose. Then the positive scan polarization reverse catalytic voltammetry was proposed for the first time. Based on this method, the pure oxidation current was extracted by subtraction of the blank current in the reverse scan. The current sensitivity was enhanced tremendously and the signal to noise ra-tio was improved adequately. The electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose at the MoOx/AuNPs modified electrode was performed in alkaline medium, a wide linear range from 0.01 mmol/L to 4.0 mmol/L of glucose, a higher current sensitivity of 2.35 mA/(mmol/L·cm2), and a lower limit of detection of 9.01 μmol/L (at signal/noise=3) were achieved. In addition, the electrocatalytic oxidation of other saccharides such as lactose, fructose and sucrose was also evaluated.展开更多

The isolated stromal vascular fraction (SVF) is a heterogeneous cell population including theadipose-derived stromal/stem cells (ASC), which showed regenerative potential in several clinical studies and trials.SVF should be provided in a safe and reproducible manner in accordance with current good manufacturing practices(cGMP). To ensure highest possible safety for patients, a precisely defined procedure with a high-quality control isrequired. Hence, an increasing number of adipose tissue-derived cell isolation systems have been developed.These systems aim for a closed, sterile, and safe isolation process limiting donor variations, risk for contaminations,and unpredictability of the cell material. To isolate SVF from adipose tissue, enzymes such as collagenase are used.Alternatively, in order to avoid enzymes, isolation systems using physical forces are available. Here, we provide anoverview of known existing enzymatic and non-enzymatic adipose tissue-derived cell isolation systems, which arepatented, published, or already on the market.展开更多

The obtained Co3O4 and Co3O4- MCNT were characterized and investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Quantitative analysis of glucose was performed using the amperometric (i–t) method, and plot of current difference versus concentration of glucose was linear in the range of 1.0–122μmol/L, with a linear correlation coefficient (R^2) of 0.9983 and limit of detection (LOD) of 0.28μmol/L. Sensitivity of this sensor was evaluated as 2550μA L mmol^-1 cm^-2. This new sensor produced satisfactory reproducibility and stability and was applied to monitor trace amounts of glucose in human serum samples.展开更多

The EDAX spectrum illustrated that iron element was highly-dispersed over the entire surface of nickel foam, and the Raman spectroscopy revealed that both Ni-O and Fe-O bonds were formed on the surface of the as-prepared electrode. Moreover, the iron element decorated Ni foam electrode can be used as non-enzymatic glucose sensor and it exhibits not only an ultra-wide linear concentration range of 1-18 mmol/L with an outstanding sensitivity of 1.0388 m A·mmol/(L·cm2), but also an excellent ability of stability and selectivity. Therefore, this work presents a simple yet effective approach to successfully modify Ni foam as non-enzymatic glucose sensor.展开更多

文摘A novel electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose sensor based on three-dimensional Au/MXene nanocomposites was developed.MXenes were prepared using the mild etched method,and the porous foam of Au nanoparticles was combined with the MXene by means of in situ synthesis.By controlling the mass of MXene in the synthesis process,porous foam with Au nanoparticles was obtained.The three-dimensional foam structure of nanoparticles was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy.Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to study the electrochemical performance of the Au/MXene nanocomposites.The Au/MXene nanocomposites acted as a fast redox probe for nonenzymatic glucose oxidation and showed good performance,including a high sensitivity of 22.45μA·(mmol/L)^(-1)·cm^(-1)and a wide linear range of 1-12 mmol/L.Studies have shown that MXene as a catalyst-supported material is beneficial to enhance the conductivity of electrons and increase the loading rate of the catalyst materials.The foam structure with Au nanoparticles can provide a larger surface area,increase the contact area with the molecule in the catalytic reaction,and enhance the electrochemical reaction signal.In summary,this study shows that Au/MXene nanoparticles have the potential to be used in non-enzymatic glucose sensors.
文摘Introduction: Non-enzymatic antioxidants are good scavengers of free radicals preventing their overproduction there by reducing the level of oxidative stress. This work was undertaken at Saint Peter TB specialized hospital and TekleHaimanot health center from March 2012 to May 2013.Aim: To determine changes in Non-Enzymatic Antioxidants and level of oxidative stress of tuberculosis Patients before and after taking anti tuberculosis treatment.Materials and Methods: In this comparative cross sectional study, a total of 210 individuals including: newly diagnosed TB patients as group-I (n = 70), TB patients who completed treatment as group-II (n = 70), and healthy volunteers as group-III (n = 70) were enrolled. Different methods were used to determine the parameters;vit-C (HPLC method), lipid peroxidation (thiobarbuituric acid method), and bilirubin (Colorimetric assay). Results: Vitamin-C (Vit-C) and of group-I showed a significant reduction (p < 0.001) as compared with both group-II and group-III whereas Malondialdehyde (MDA) level was increased. However, the total and direct bilirubin was not different among the groups. In group-III, there was a positive correlation between BMI and serum Vit-C (r = -0.305, p = 0.010). Vit-C showed a negative correlation with serum MDA in all the groups with values (r = -0.265, p = 0.027), (r = -0.389, p = 0.001) and (r = -0.375, p = 0.001) for group-I, group-II and group-III respectively. In addition to this Vit-C was negatively correlated with serum UA (r = -0.285, p = 0.017) in group-I. Conclusion: The findings of the current study suggest that the amount of Vit-C in the newly diagnosed TB patients and those who finished their treatment is much lower than the healthy volunteers. In contrast to this, the MDA value was significantly higher both in the newly diagnosed TB patients and TB patients who completed treatment than in healthy volunteers suggesting higher degree of oxidative stress.
文摘In this study, novel nickel oxide (NiO) flowers like nanostructures were fabricated onto gold coated glass substrate by hydrothermal method using high alkaline pH medium. The structural study of nickel oxide nanostructures was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray differaction (XRD) techniques. Nickel oxide nanostructures are highly dense, uniform and possess good crystalline quality. The so prepared structures were investigated for their electrochemical properties by cyclic voltammetry and amperometric techniques. The nickel oxide flower like morphology has shown good electrochemical performances for the oxidation of glucose. The presented sensing material was able to detected glucose in a wide range of concentration of 0.001 mM to 8 mM with a high sensitivity (123 μmA/mM) and regression coefficient of 0.99. Moreover, the NiO nanostructures based sensor is highly reproducible, stable, exhibiting a fast response time and selective in the response. All the obtained results indicate the potential use of this material in the development of enzyme free sensors for the detection of glucose.

文摘A series of non-enzymatic graphene functionalized biosensors was developed via deposition precipitation method for lactic acid(LA) detection,which we re characterized by transmission electron micro scopy(TEM),Raman spectroscopy,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),gas chromatography-mass spectrometry,liquid chromatography-mass spectro metry,and proton nuclear magnetic re sonance(~1H NMR).The electrochemical performances of the non-enzymatic biosensors were measured by means of the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) and cyclic voltammetry(CV) method.The comprehensive analysis of structures shows that Pt,CeO_(2),and GO components interact with each other.During the storing and releasing oxygen,the valence ratio of Ce^(3+)/Ce^(4+) and the number of oxygen vacancies in CeO_(2) change accordingly,which can be conducive to increasing electronic transmission capacity and finally leads to the improvement of electrocatalytic performance.Among them,the Pt/CeO_(2)/GO biosensor containing 0.47 at% platinum exhibits an excellent electrochemical detection performance with high sensitivity of 12.3 μA·L/(mmol·cm^(2)) and a low limit of detection(LOD) of 5.12 μmol/L in a wide linear range from 10 to 900 μmol/L.In addition,the proposed biosensor possesses a promising anti-interference capability,as well as high stability and good reproducibility,which was assessed by testing the cyclic voltammogram in 0.1 mol/L lactic acid one year later.The underlying mechanism was proposed for electrochemical oxidation of LA to carbon dioxide and acetic acid with the synergistic effect among Pt,CeO_(2),and GO.Furthermore,the results of the standard addition method in real samples(human serum and urine samples) reveal that the lactic acid detection of the non-enzymatic Pt/CeO_(2)/GO biosensor is accompanied by high reliability.Thus,it will be a valuable biosensor for in vitro detection of lactic acid level in clinical samples.
文摘The MoOx/AuNPs composite film modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated by electro-depositing simultaneously gold nanoparticles and molybdenum oxides using cyclic voltammetry. The morphology and topography of the MoOx/AuNPs composite were char-acterized by scan electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy respectively, and the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose at the MoOx/AuNPs composite film was inves-tigated and analyzed in detail. It was shown that the MoOx/AuNPs composite was of strong electrocatalytic activity towards oxidation of glucose as well as other saccharides, so that an attempt was made for direct voltammetric determination of glucose. Then the positive scan polarization reverse catalytic voltammetry was proposed for the first time. Based on this method, the pure oxidation current was extracted by subtraction of the blank current in the reverse scan. The current sensitivity was enhanced tremendously and the signal to noise ra-tio was improved adequately. The electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose at the MoOx/AuNPs modified electrode was performed in alkaline medium, a wide linear range from 0.01 mmol/L to 4.0 mmol/L of glucose, a higher current sensitivity of 2.35 mA/(mmol/L·cm2), and a lower limit of detection of 9.01 μmol/L (at signal/noise=3) were achieved. In addition, the electrocatalytic oxidation of other saccharides such as lactose, fructose and sucrose was also evaluated.

文摘Epigenetic modifications,including those on DNA and histones,have been shown to regulate cellular metabolism by controlling expression of enzymes involved in the corresponding metabolic pathways.In turn,metabolic flux influences epigenetic regulation by affecting the biosynthetic balance of enzyme cofactors or donors for certain chromatin modifications.Recently,non-enzymatic covalent modifications(NECMs)by chemically reactive metabolites have been reported to manipulate chromatin architecture and gene transcription through multiple mechanisms.Here,we summarize these recent advances in the identification and characterization of NECMs on nucleic acids,histones,and transcription factors,providing an additional mechanistic link between metabolism and epigenetics.

文摘In the past decade, adipose tissue became a highly interesting source of adult stem cells for plastic surgery andregenerative medicine. The isolated stromal vascular fraction (SVF) is a heterogeneous cell population including theadipose-derived stromal/stem cells (ASC), which showed regenerative potential in several clinical studies and trials.SVF should be provided in a safe and reproducible manner in accordance with current good manufacturing practices(cGMP). To ensure highest possible safety for patients, a precisely defined procedure with a high-quality control isrequired. Hence, an increasing number of adipose tissue-derived cell isolation systems have been developed.These systems aim for a closed, sterile, and safe isolation process limiting donor variations, risk for contaminations,and unpredictability of the cell material. To isolate SVF from adipose tissue, enzymes such as collagenase are used.Alternatively, in order to avoid enzymes, isolation systems using physical forces are available. Here, we provide anoverview of known existing enzymatic and non-enzymatic adipose tissue-derived cell isolation systems, which arepatented, published, or already on the market.

文摘In the field of glucose sensors,the development of inexpensive and high-efficiency electrochemical glucose sensors is the current research hotspot.In this paper,CuO-Co_(3)O_(4)composite with a prickly-sphere-like morphology is prepared by the facile hydrothermal method for the non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose detection.X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,energy-dispersive X-ray spec-troscopy,and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy are used to analyze the structure,composition,and morphology of the material.In addition,the electrochemical catalytic perfor-mance of CuO-Co_(3)O_(4)to glucose is obtained by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry.The excellent elec-trochemical sensing performance may be attributed to the large number of catalytic sites in the prickly-sphere-like composite and the synergistic effect of Cu and Co.Under an applied voltage of 0.55 V,CuO-Co_(3)O_(4)composite shows sensitivity to glucose(1503.45μA·(mmol·L^(-1))^(-1)-cm^(-2)),a low detection limit(21.95μmol·L^(-1)),excellent selectivity,a high level of reproducibility,and good sta-bility.This indicates that the CuO-Co_(3)O_(4)composite has a broad prospect of non-enzymatic glucose sensing application.

文摘Nanocomposite of Co3O4 and multiwalled carbon nanotube (MCNT) was synthesised using one step solvothermal method, and an electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose sensor (Co3O4-MCNT/GCE) was successfully constructed by a dropping method. The obtained Co3O4 and Co3O4- MCNT were characterized and investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Quantitative analysis of glucose was performed using the amperometric (i–t) method, and plot of current difference versus concentration of glucose was linear in the range of 1.0–122μmol/L, with a linear correlation coefficient (R^2) of 0.9983 and limit of detection (LOD) of 0.28μmol/L. Sensitivity of this sensor was evaluated as 2550μA L mmol^-1 cm^-2. This new sensor produced satisfactory reproducibility and stability and was applied to monitor trace amounts of glucose in human serum samples.

文摘The preparation of highly sensitive and stable non-enzymatic glucose sensors is critical to the prevention and treatment of diabetes.Fe_(3)O_(4)@Au@Co Fe-LDH is prepared through a spontaneous galvanic displacement reaction.A series of structural characterizations testify the successful formation of Fe_(3)O_(4)@Au@Co FeLDH electrocatalyst,with the Au intercalating between Fe_(3)O_(4)and LDH to form the sandwich structure.Cyclic voltammetry tests indicate that Au is responsible for the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose.The characterizations of the electrochemical sensor for glucose detection indicate that Fe_(3)O_(4)@Au@Co FeLDH possesses high sensitivity of 6342μA m M^(-1)cm^(-2),with an extremely low oxidation potential of 0.82 V vs.RHE.Even with the high glucose concentration of 15 m M,the sensitivity remains at 4359μA m M^(-1)cm^(-2).Due to the broad linear detection range(0.0375 to 15.64 m M)and the low limit of detection(12.7μM),Fe_(3)O_(4)@Au@Co Fe-LDH is applicable towards practical application.Thanks to the sandwich structure,which confines the Au in between Fe_(3)O_(4)and Co Fe-LDH,the Fe_(3)O_(4)@Au@Co Fe-LDH glucose sensor shows high long-term stability and satisfactory selectivity.The successful synthesis of the sandwichstructured Fe_(3)O_(4)@Au@Co Fe-LDH provides a new conception for the design of highly sensitive and stable non-enzymatic glucose electrodes.

文摘The presence of excess glucose in blood is regarded as a sweet hurt for patients with diabetes.Human serum albumin(HSA)is the most abundant protein in human plasma,which undergoes severe non-enzymatic glycation with glucose in patients with diabetes;this modifies the structure and function of HSA.Furthermore,the advanced glycation end products produced by glycated HSA can cause pathological damage to the human body through various signaling pathways,eventually leading to complications of diabetes.Many potential glycation sites on HSA have different degrees of sensitivity to glucose concentration.This review provides a comprehensive assessment of the in vivo glycation sites of HSA;it also discusses the effects of glycation on the structure and function of HSA.Moreover,it addresses the relationship between HSA glycation and diabetes complications.Finally,it focuses on the value of non-enzymatic glycation of HSA in diabetes-related clinical applications.

文摘The highly-dispersed iron element decorated Ni foam was prepared by simple immersion in a ferric nitrate solution at room temperature without using acid etching, and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), EDAX spectrum(EDAX mapping) and Raman spectroscopy. The EDAX spectrum illustrated that iron element was highly-dispersed over the entire surface of nickel foam, and the Raman spectroscopy revealed that both Ni-O and Fe-O bonds were formed on the surface of the as-prepared electrode. Moreover, the iron element decorated Ni foam electrode can be used as non-enzymatic glucose sensor and it exhibits not only an ultra-wide linear concentration range of 1-18 mmol/L with an outstanding sensitivity of 1.0388 m A·mmol/(L·cm2), but also an excellent ability of stability and selectivity. Therefore, this work presents a simple yet effective approach to successfully modify Ni foam as non-enzymatic glucose sensor.

文摘Mass detection of glucose,which is required in many applications,remains challenging.The commercial enzyme-based glucose test strips cannot be reused,and current non-enzymatic glucose sensors exhibit a narrow range of detection and slow glucose oxidation kinetics.Herein,controlled etching of Prussian blue analogue(PBA)nanocubes at the vertices is conducted and Au nanoparticles(Au NPs)are subsequently inlaid in the etched cavities by in-situ reduction of HAuCl4.The unique AuNP-PBA nanocomplexes exhibit low electrochemical potential for glucose oxidation,high electrocatalytic activity,and rapid redox electron transfer rate.Covalent immobilization of the Au-inlaid nanomaterials on a fine Au wire leads to a non-enzymatic glucose sensor with a particularly wide linear detection range(10μM to 16 mM),excellent anti-interference,and fast response.More importantly,the sensor is reusable,and its sensitivity is well maintained even after 150 times of detection.This new-concept material promises to enable high-throughput glucose detection at a low cost,which is essential in diabetic management and other healthcare applications.

文摘In this study,the application of bovine serum albumin(BSA)as a carrier to glucose-sensitive materials for the detection of glucose was proposed.Au-Cu O bimetallic nanoclusters(Au-Cu O/BSA)were prepared using BSA as a template,the new sensing material(Au-Cu O/BSA/MWCNTs)was synthesized by mixing with multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNT)and applied to non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors to detect glucose stably and effectively under neutral condition.The scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate the morphology of the synthesized nanocomposite.The electrochemical properties of the sensor were studied by cyclic voltammetry.Glucose detection experiments show that Au-Cu O/BSA/MWCNTs/Au electrode has good glucose detection ability,stability,accuracy,repeatability,and high selectivity in neutral environment.Unlike existing glucose-sensitive materials,due to the use of BSA,the composite material is firmly fixed to the electrode surface without a Nafion solution,which reduces the current blocking effect on the modified electrode.The composite materials can be effectively preserved for extremely long periods,higher than 80%activity is maintained at room temperature in a closed environment for 3 to 4 months,due to the special effects of BSA.In addition,the feasibility of using BSA in glucose-sensitive materials is confirmed.
