In this study, a potentiometric intracellular glucose biosensor was fabricated by immobilization of glucose oxidase on nanoflake ZnO. Nanoflake ZnO with a wall thickness around 200 nm was grown on the tip of a borosilicate glass capillary and used as a selective intracellular glucose biosensor for the measurement of glucose concentrations in human adipocytes and frog oocytes. The results showed a fast response within 4 s and a logarithmic linear glucose-dependent electrochemical potential difference over a wide range of glucose concentration (500 nM–10 mM). Our measurements of intracellular glucose were consistent with the values of intracellular glucose concentrations reported in the literature. The monitoring capability of the sensor was demonstrated by following the increase in the intracellular glucose concentration induced by insulin in adipocytes and frog oocytes. In addition, the nanoflake ZnO material provided 1.8 times higher sensitivity than previously used ZnO nanorods under the same conditions. Moreover, the fabrication method in our experiment is simple and the resulting nanosensor showed good performance in sensitivity, stability, selectivity, reproducibility, and anti-interference. All these results demonstrate that the nanoflake ZnO can provide a promising material for reliable measurements of intracellular glucose concentrations within single living cells.
