Pd-NWs ordered arrays for electrochemical sensing of H2O2
2016
In this work, we present the performance of nanostructured array of Pd (Pd-NWs) for electrochemical sensors of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is widely used in several fields, because to its oxidizing and reducing properties, like for treatment of waste water, paper and contaminated soils, as reagent in many chemical industries or like rocket propellant [1]. Furthermore, its presence or absence may be connected with many neurological deseases or/and with cancer [2].Today the most used methods for detection of that chemical are IR spectroscopy, spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, chemioluminescence and redox titration. However these methods are often uneconomical, have very high detection …
Nanowire Ordered Arrays for Electrochemical Sensing of H2O2
2016
Today, electrochemical sensors are considered very interesting in comparison to conventional techniques because they are very adaptable, cheap, have very low limit of detection and low detection time. The most used electrochemical technique is the amperometry . In amperometric sensors, a fixed potential is applied to the electrochemical cell, and a corresponding current, due to a reduction or oxidation reaction, is then obtained. This current it can be correlated with the bulk concentration of the detecting species (the solute) such as H2O2. Hydrogen peroxide is an essential mediator in food, pharmaceutical, clinical, industrial, and environmental analyses therefore, it is of great importan…
