Peroxidase mimicking CdS/NiS immobilized reduced graphene oxide based nanozyme for the determination of hydrogen peroxide
摘要
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) serves as an eco-friendly intermediate in environmental applications and is crucial in biochemical metabolism in humans. However, the overproduction and accumulation of excessive H2O2 can be detrimental to the human body, leading to significant cellular damage. Consequently, the CdS/NiS immobilized reduced graphene oxide (CdS/NiS/rGO) nanozyme was synthesized to facilitate the oxidation of 3, 3, 5, 5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into a blue-colored product (TMBox) in the presence of H2O2. From the experimental findings, an effective and economical colorimetric approach for the detection of H2O2 has been developed. This method demonstrated a sensitive response to H2O2 concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 mM with linear range from 0.1 to 10 mM, exhibiting good recovery (95.33-103.33%) in real sample analysis, with lowest limit of H2O2 detected at 0.1 mM. CdS/NiS/rGO nanozyme is found reusable up to four cycles without significantly diminishing the activity, shows good storage stability till three weeks, and selective to H2O2. This study offers a practical method for environmental monitoring, biosensing, and additional applications.
