Abstract
To enhance the sensitivity of flexible glucose sensors made with 3-aminophenylboronic acid and pyrrole as functional molecules and a carbon tri-electrode as substrate, graphene sponge (GS) and Prussian blue (PB) were used to enhance the charge transfer between the molecularly imprinted cavities and the electrodes. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry showed that modifying the electrode with GS and PB significantly reduced the charge transfer impedance and increased the redox current of the sensor. The sensor has a sensitivity of up to 25.81 µA⋅loge (µM)-1⋅cm-2 for the detection of glucose using differential pulse voltammetry in the range of 7.78 to 600 µM, with a low detection limit of 1.08 μM (S/N = 3). When the pH varies in the range of 5.5 to 7.5, the sensor maintains a certain level of stability for glucose detection. The presence of lactic acid, urea, and ascorbic acid had minimal impact on glucose detection by the sensor. After 20 days of storage at room temperature, the sensor maintains 80 % efficiency. This study supports the development of wearable glucose sensors with high sensitivity, specificity, and stability through molecular imprinting.

Abstract
Power generation through harvesting human thermal energy provides an ideal strategy for self-powered wearable design. However, existing thermoelectric fibers, films, and blocks have small power generation capacity and poor flexibility, which hinders the development of self-powered wearable electronics. Here, we report a multifunctional superelastic graphene-based thermoelectric (TE) sponge for wearable electronics and thermal management. The sponge has a high Seebeck coefficient of 49.2 μV/K and a large compressive strain of 98%. After 10 000 cyclic compressions at 30% strain, the sponge shows excellent mechanical and TE stability. A wearable sponge array TE device was designed to drive medical equipment for monitoring physiological signals by harvesting human thermal energy. Furthermore, a 4 × 4 array TE device placed on the surface of a normal working Central Processing Unit (CPU) can generate a stable voltage and reduce the CPU temperature by 8 K, providing a feasible strategy for simultaneous power generation and thermal management.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has great potential in water purification. However, the limitations such as aggregation and toxicity of nanomaterials have blocked their practical application. In this work, a novel copper nanoparticles-decorated graphene sponge (Cu-GS) was synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method. Cu-GS consisting of three-dimensional (3D) porous graphene network and well-dispersed Cu nanoparticles exhibited high antibacterial efficiency against Esherichia coli when used as a bactericidal filter. The morphological changes determined by scanning electron microscope and fluorescence images measured by flow cytometry confirmed the involvement of membrane damage induced by Cu-GS in their antibacterial process. The oxidative ability of Cu-GS and intercellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were also determined to elucidate the possible antibacterial mechanism of Cu-GS. Moreover, the concentration of released copper ions from Cu-GS was far below the drinking water standard, and the copper ions also have an effect on the antibacterial activity of Cu-GS. Results suggested that Cu-GS as a novel bactericidal filter possessed a potential application of water disinfection.
