Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus, or Diabetes in short, is a group of widespread endocrine diseases characterized by high blood sugar levels. This research paper attempts to find a solution to this high sugar problem, by taking the route of electrochemistry. It was attempted to demonstrate that the excess sugar (glucose) in the bloodstream of a diabetic patient can be lowered by electro-oxidizing the excess sugar in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) and convert it into electrical energy. For this, a sugar level detection system was developed, using a linear regression model with a coefficient of determination (R2 value) of 0.974. At first, one of the most popular as well as costly electrocatalytic materials i.e., Platinum was used to electro-oxidize the excess sugar. Upon its success, some highly electrocatalytic but cheap electrode materials were developed, such as Nickel, Nickel with nanocarbon, Manganese dioxide (MnO2) and Manganese dioxide with nanocarbon (MnO2C). And they also successfully electro-oxidized the excess glucose in SBF solution, thereby reducing the sugar levels. Thus, a potentially novel route to deal with the epidemic problem of diabetes has been proposed through this research work.
