High-Performance Non-Enzyme Hydrogen Peroxide Detection in Neutral Solution: Using a Nickel Borate Nanoarray as a 3D Electrochemical Sensor

Graphical A nickel borate nanoarray on carbon cloth (Ni−Bi/CC) behaves as an efficient catalyst electrode for H 2 O 2 electroreduction in neutral media. As a non-enzymatic electrochemical H 2 O 2 sensor, such Ni−Bi/CC shows superior sensing performances with a fast response time (less than 3 s), a low detection limit (0.85 n m , S / N =3), and a high sensitivity (18320 μA m m cm −2 ). It is highly attractive to construct natural enzyme-free nanoarray architecture as a 3D catalyst for hydrogen peroxide detection due to its great specific surface area and easy accessibility to target molecules. In this communication, we demonstrate that nickel borate nanoarray supported on carbon cloth (Ni−Bi/CC) behaves as an efficient catalyst electrode for H 2 O 2 electro-reduction in neutral media. As a non-enzymatic electrochemical H 2 O 2 sensor, such Ni−Bi/CC shows superior sensing performances with a fast response time (less than 3 s), a low detection limit (0.85 n m , S/ N =3), and a high sensitivity (18320 μA m m cm −2 ). Importantly, it also demonstrates favourable reproducibility and long-term stability.
