In this work, a sensitive and highly stable non-enzymatic glucose sensor is reported. It is based on self-assembled 3-mercaptophenylboronic acid (3MPBA) self-assembled on small Pt nanoparticles supported on a multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) surface. The materials characterization was performed by thermal analysis (TGA), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and Z potential measurements. Glucose and fructose evaluation was carried out by hydrodynamic zeta potential measurements using the streaming potential, presenting high selectivity to glucose in the alkaline medium. The 3MPBA-PtNPs-CNTs electrode exhibit a linear response in the glucose concentration range of 0 to 10 mM, high sensitivity to 22.25 mV mM −1 , and ultra-low detection of 4.5 μ M.
