A spectrophotometric method is presented to determine glucose employing the sol-gel technique. Myoglobin (Mb) and glucose oxidase are encapsulated in a transparent and porous silica glass. The produced gel (xerogel) is then immersed in water where increments of glucose are added to the solution with stirring; glucose diffuses into the sol-gel glass pores and a series of reactions take place. Glucose is first oxidized by glucose oxidase and oxygen to gluconate and hydrogen peroxide is generated. The liberated hydrogen peroxide oxidizes the Mb heme (Fe2+into Fe3+). The higher is the glucose concentration added, the more is the H2O2generated, and the more is the Mb oxidation (Fe2+to Fe3+) and as a result the higher is the absorbance at 400 nm (negative peak, lower absorbance value). All measurements are performed at this wavelength (400 nm), the negative peak obtained by subtracting the absorption spectra of Mb before and after oxidation. Measuring the slope of the absorbance decay versus time at 400 nm monitors increments of added glucose. Each glucose concentration has an accompanying unique decay curve with a unique slope. The higher is the glucose concentration; the steeper is the decay curve (higher slope value). The calibration curve was linear up to 40 mM.

Glucose concentration is an important parameter in biomedicine since glucose is involved in many metabolic pathways in organisms. Many methods for glucose detection have been developed for use in various applications, particularly in the field of healthcare in diabetics. In this study, ratiometric fluorescent glucose-sensing membranes were fabricated based on the oxygen levels consumed in the glucose oxidation reaction under the catalysis of glucose oxidase (GOD). The oxygen concentration was measured through the fluorescence quenching effect of an oxygen-sensitive fluorescent dye like platinum meso-tetra (pentafluorophenyl) porphyrin (PtP) by oxygen molecules. Coumarin 6 (C6) was used as a reference dye in the ratiometric fluorescence measurements. The glucose-sensing membrane consisted of two layers: The first layer was the oxygen-sensing membrane containing polystyrene particles (PS) doped with PtP and C6 (e.g., PS@C6^PtP) in a sol–gel matrix of aminopropyltrimethoxysilane and glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GA). The second layer was made by immobilizing GOD onto one of three supporting polymers over the first layer. These glucose-sensing membranes were characterized in terms of their response, reversibility, interferences, and stability. They showed a wide detection range to glucose concentration in the range of 0.1 to 10 mM, but high sensitivity with a linear detection range of 0.1 to 2 mM glucose. This stable and sensitive ratiometric fluorescent glucose biosensor provides a reliable way to determine low glucose concentrations in blood serum by measuring tear glucose.

AbstractThe process of encapsulating antibodies in sol-gel was used for sensing various hormones, specifically cortisol, insulin, and C-peptide. A sol-gel optical biosensor for cortisol has been developed for monitoring of crew health on-orbit during space missions. Our studies involving silica sol-gel materials with competitive immunoassays demonstrated linear calibration for cortisol in the range of 2-60 μg/dL, which covers the physiological range of cortisol blood concentration for an adult (2-28 μg/dL). The method of standard additions was used to analyze human serum samples sent to us from a NASA laboratory. Our sol-gel immunosensor values were typically within 20% of the values obtained by NASA-JSC using traditional immuno-binding techniques, with some values having less than a 5% error. Initial results are presented for sensing the hormones insulin and C-peptide.

Abstract Glucose was measured by the ferricyanide, the Beckman glucose oxidase, and the hexokinase procedures in 228 plasma samples taken during standard oral glucose-tolerance tests in 17 normal subjects and in 21 chemical diabetics. The neocuproine method was also used to measure glucose concentration in 156 samples (78 before and 78 after dialysis) collected from six diabetic and uremic patients who were on maintenance hemodialysis. Ferricyanide in all conditions and neocuproine in uremic patients overestimated glucose concentrations over the entire experimental range as compared with either enzymic method. This bias or systematic error of the reducing vs the enzymic procedures, due to nonglucose reducing substances ("saccharoids"), becomes considerably greater when their concentration is increased as in chronic uremia. Also, the inverse relation between glucose concentration and overestimation of glucose by the reducing methods has been detected. With respect to the hexokinase method, a mild but significant underestimate of glucose oxidase readings has been observed for higher glucose concentrations. We find neocuproine to be the most imprecise of these procedures.

ABSTRACTThe goal of this research is to investigate the activities of a non-noble nano-catalyst (Ni/SiO2) using Si-microreactors for steam reforming of methanol to produce hydrogen for fuel cells. The supported catalyst was synthesized by sol-gel method using Ni (II) salts and Si(C2H5O)4 as starting materials. EDX results indicate that the actual loading of Ni (5-6%) is lower than the intended loading of 12 %. The specific surface area of the silica sol-gel encapsulated Ni nano-catalyst is 452 m2/g with an average pore size of ∼ 3 nm. Steam reforming reactions have been carried out in a microreactor with 50 µm channels in the temperature range of 180-240 °C and atmospheric pressure. Results show 53% conversion of methanol with a selectivity of 74 % to hydrogen at 5 l/min and 200 °C. The magnetic properties of the catalysts were performed using a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) to study the activity of the catalysts before and after the steam reforming reactions. The VSM results indicate much higher activity in the microreactor compared to macro-reactor and Ni forms non-ferromagnetic species faster in the microreactor.
