A Comparison of Four Different Electrode Matrices on the Performance of Amperometric Hydrogen Peroxide (Bio)Sensors

Abstract

A comparison of the analytical performances of four different (bio)sensor designs in H2O2 determination is discussed. The (bio)sensor designs developed were based on the use of (i) multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONP), prussian blue (PB); (ii) MWCNT, ZnONP, PB and ionic liquid (IL); (iii) MWCNT, ZnONP and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and (iv) MWCNT, ZnONP, HRP and IL modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). A performance comparison of (bio)sensors showed that the one based on HRP/IL-MWCNT-ZnONP/GCE showed the best analytical characteristics with a linear dynamic range of 9.99×10?8–7.55×10?4 M, detection limit of 1.37×10?8 M and sensitivity of 17.00 ?A mM?1. © 2022 Wiley-VCH GmbH
