To meet the increasing need for point-of-care testing (POCT), simple and portable readout strategies would be highly desirable. Thermometer with high accuracy and straightforward readout is an ideal tool for the development of new POCT methods. The exploration of new thermometer-based detection methods is of great significance. In this study, a simple biosensor for glucose based on the photothermal effect of gold nanorods using a simple thermometer as readout has been developed. In the presence of glucose oxidase, glucose can react with the dissolved oxygen to produce H₂O₂. With the help of Fe²⁺, H₂O₂ can etch gold nanorods (AuNRs) to different aspect ratios. The decrease of the aspect ratio of AuNRs leads to the blue-shift of the localized surface plasmon resonance peak, resulting in a decrease of photothermal effect in the near-infrared regions and the temperature of the system decreased. The change of the temperature has a linear relationship with the logarithm of glucose concentration in the range of 1.0–10.0 mM with a detection limit of 0.8 mM. The proposed method possesses a bias offset of −0.03 mM for glucose detection compared to the hospital method. Since many enzymatic reactions can produce H₂O₂, the principle can be modified to detect different targets by simply change of the enzyme used.
