The evolution of high-performance electrode materials has significantly impacted the development of real-time monitoring biosensors, emphasizing the need for compatibility with biomaterials and robust electrochemical properties. This work focuses on creating electrode materials utilizing single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), specifically examining their dispersion behavior and electrochemical characteristics. By using ultrasonic waves, we analyzed the dispersion of CNTs in various solvents, including N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), deionized water (DW), ethanol, and acetone. The findings revealed that SWCNTs achieved optimal dispersion without precipitation in DMF. Additionally, we observed that the electrical resistance decreased as the concentration of SWCNTs increased from 0.025 to 0.4 g/L, with significant conductivity enhancements noted between 0.2 g/L and 0.4 g/L in DMF. In constructing the biosensor platform, we employed 1-pyrenebutanoic acid succinimidyl ester (PBSE) as a linker molecule, while glucose oxidase (Gox) served as the binding substrate. The interaction between Gox and glucose led to a notable decrease in the biosensor’s resistance values as glucose concentrations ranged from 0.001 to 0.1 M. These results provide foundational insights into the development of SWCNT-based electrode materials and suggest a promising pathway toward the next generation of efficient and reliable biosensors.

The increasing demand for continuous physiological monitoring has accelerated the development of high-sensitivity wearable electrochemical platforms. This study reports the fabrication of a multi-analyte electrochemical sensor based on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) for the detection of sweat-associated metabolites. To facilitate efficient heterogeneous electron transfer, glucose oxidase (Gox), lactate oxidase (Lox), and urease (Ure) were immobilized onto the SWCNT network through π–π interaction using 1-pyrenebutanoic acid succinimidyl ester (PBSE), followed by additional stabilization via 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC)/N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) coupling. The developed platform exhibited concentration-dependent resistance responses within the ranges of 0.02–0.20 mM for glucose, 20–100 mM for lactate, and 50–400 mM for urea under controlled experimental conditions. The resistance-based configuration enabled stable and reproducible signal modulation across these concentration intervals. Although direct testing with human sweat was not performed, the electrochemical behavior of key sweat-related metabolites was systematically evaluated as a preparatory step toward future wearable integration.

Recent developments in high-performance electrode materials have been pivotal for real-time monitoring biosensors, necessitating compatibility with biomaterials and robust electrochemi-cal properties. This study explores the development of electrode materials using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), with a primary fo-cus on assessing their dispersion and electrochemical properties. Various solvents, including N N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), deionized water, ethanol, and acetone, were used for dispersion analysis by employing ultrasonic waves. The results showed that SWCNTs exhibited well-dispersed characteristics without precipitation when introduced to a DMF solution. It found that resistance values decreased as the concentration of SWCNTs increased over the range of 0.025 to 0.4 g/L, with a considerable electrical conductivity reached at concentrations ranging from 0.2 g/L to 0.4 g/L in DMF. The biosensor platform was evaluated with 1-pyrenebutanoic acid succin-imidyl este (PBSE) as the linker and glucose oxidase (Gox) and chitosan as the binding substrate. The binding of Gox with glucose resulted in a significant decrease in resistance value of the biosensor with rising their concentrations ranged from 0.001 to 0.1 M. Though this research provides founda-tional insights for the advancement of SWCNT-based high-performance electrode materials, it will pave the way for the next generation of efficient and reliable biosensors.
