Abstract:
We fabricated a fourth generation glucose biosensor using CeO2@CuO core shell nano structure (CeCCS NSs). A simple leave extract of Ocimum tenuiflorum was used to prepare different wt% of 0.2, 04, 0.6, and 0.8 CuO (shell), above 1 wt% of CeO2 (core). The successful formation was confirmed by various characterization techniques like XRD, Uv-Vis, FTIR, SEM and HR-TEM. In the biosensor, 0.4 wt% of CeCCS NSs has shown efficient properties due to its high surface area. The good conductivity and high catalytic activity towards glucose sensing properties were estimated by screen-printed electrode (SPE). The ampherometric studies of CeCCS/SPE modified electrode have been optimized at potential + 0.4 V, showed a sensitivity of 3319.83 μAm M-1 cm-2 within detection limit of 0.019 μM. More significantly, modified electrodes performed excellently against anti-interference and anti-poisoned activity in glucose sample and exhibited promising results for the sustainable improvement for non-enzymatic sensing applications.

The paradox
Nucleosomes, paradoxically, perform two opposite functions simultaneously. On the one hand, their main responsibility is to protect the delicate DNA strands from physical damage and help achieve a higher compaction ratio. While on the other hand, they must allow polymerase enzymes to access DNA...
