Hydrothermal Method of Synthesis of β-Ag2MoO4 Nanorods as a Peroxidase Mimetic for Glucose Sensing

Abstract:
In this study, β-Ag₂MoO₄ nanorods were synthesized
using a hydrothermal method, aiming to explore their potential as a sensing
material for L-glucose detection. The synthesis process was optimized to produce
uniform nanorods with high crystallinity and surface area, which is essential
for enhancing sensor performance. The synthesized β-Ag2MoO4 nanorods
characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy
(SEM), confirmed the successful formation of β-Ag₂MoO₄ nanorods with desired
morphological features. The vibrations existing in β-Ag2MoO4 nanorods were
characterized by FT-IR and Raman spectroscopic studies. The electrochemical
properties of the nanorods were evaluated, demonstrating their sensitivity and
selectivity towards L-glucose. The nanorods exhibited a rapid response time,
low detection limit, and excellent reproducibility, making them promising
candidates for glucose sensors. This work underscores the potential of hydrothermally
synthesized β-Ag₂MoO₄ nanorods in the development of advanced glucose sensing
platforms, offering a new approach for the efficient and reliable monitoring of
glucose levels in medical diagnostics.
