Electrocatalytic Sensor for Hydrogen Peroxide Based on Immobilized Benzoquinone

An amperometric chemosensor for the detection of hydrogen peroxide is reported. The sensor is based on 1,4-benzoquinone immobilized on the gold electrode using self-assembled monolayer of short chain symmetrical dithiol as an anchor layer. Sensor analysis was performed by cyclic voltammetry at the potential range from −0.6 V till +0.9 V as well as in the anodic or cathodic potential ranges only. The results indicate oxidative electrochemical decomposition of hydrogen peroxide at the potential of ∼+0.4 V leading to the formation of oxygen while at cathodic potentials a reduction of the formed oxygen as well as of the hydrogen peroxide occur. A decrease in the oxidation potential of hydrogen peroxide on the gold electrode coated by self-assembled monolayer with 1,4-benzoquinone in comparison with that measured on the electrodes coated by the same self-assembled monolayer without 1,4-benzoquinone, indicates electrocatalytic effect of this moiety on oxidative decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Analytical evaluation of the sensor performance was done in the voltammetric as well as in the chronoamperometric mode. The sensor exhibited linear response over the concentration range till 2.5 mM with a limit of detection ∼4 μM.     

An Unmediated Hydrogen Peroxide Sensor Based on a Hemoglobin-sds Film Modified Electrode

ABSTRACT

An unmediated hydrogen peroxide sensor is designed in this paper by employing a hemoglobin-SDS film modified electrode. Hemoglobin exhibits direct (unmediated) electrochemistry at the modified electrode. The protein also shows elegant catalytic activity towards the electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide. Consequently, a prototype hydrogen peroxide sensor is prepared. Under optimum conditions, this sensor provides a linear response over the hydrogen peroxide concentrations in the range of 1×10^-5～1×10^-4 mol/L. The detection limit was 2×10^-6 mol/L The relative standard deviation was 4.2% for 6 successive determinations of the hydrogen peroxide at 1×10^-5 mol/L. This configuration is shown to be sensitive, stable and easily fabricated. It might be useful in the biological and industrial fields.     

Highly Selective Nanostructured Electrochemical Sensor Utilizing Densely Packed Ultrathin Gold Nanowires Film

The number of studies conducted about nonenzymatic electrochemical sensors has increased in recent years due to the development of more stable and robust electrodes using noble metals. One of the key aspects for achieving high sensing performance including detection limit and sensitivity is the design of electrode architecture. Herein, we report a new electrochemical sensing platform featuring ultrathin standing gold nanowires (AuNWs) for nonenzymatic detection of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). The use of AuNWs resulted in an increased electron transfer efficiency due to the higher active surface area compared to traditional gold film electrodes. This sensor demonstrates good selectivity, reproducibility, a linear range up to 49.5 mM of H₂O₂ with a sensitivity of 0.185±0.003 mAmM^?1cm^?2 and a limit of detection of 111 μM. The biological relevance of this sensor was tested in cell culture media to illustrate the performance of the proposed sensing electrode in complex biological media.
