title: Synthesis of enzyme mimics of iron telluride nanorods for the detection of glucose.
abstract: Iron telluride nanorods (FeTe NRs, length 45 ± 11 nm) prepared from tellurium nanowires (Te NWs, length 785 ± 170) have been used to detect H(2)O(2) and glucose with a limit of detection (LOD) of 55 nM (linear range = 0.1-5 μM) and 0.38 μM (linear range = 1-100 μM) respectively.
