Abstract:
A simple and selective enzyme-free electrochemical sensor for H 2 O 2 has been designed and fabricated using ionic liquid (IL) tagged anthraquinone (AQ) modified electrode (AQ-PF 6 -IL). This newly synthesized AQ-PF 6 -IL has been systematically characterized, after which it has been immobilized over a screen-printed electrode to produce AQ-PF 6 -IL/SPE. The electrochemical investigation of AQ-PF 6 -IL/SPE displayed a set of distinct redox peaks attributable to the anthraquinone/anthrahydroquinone redox pair. Interestingly, AQ-PF 6 -IL/SPE has shown enhanced peak current at reduced formal potential for AQ, when compared to AQ/SPE. Further, the electrocatalytic activity of AQ-PF 6 -IL/SPE towards the reduction of H 2 O 2 was investigated with the sequential addition of H 2 O 2 . A rapid and appreciable enhancement in cathodic peak currents was observed and thus demonstrating the excellent electrochemical reduction of H 2 O 2 at the newly developed sensor. Besides, AQ-PF 6 -IL/SPE established a good linear behaviour over a concentration range of 10–1228 μ M with a high sensitivity of 0.281 μ A μ M −1 cm −2 and low detection limit of 2.87 μ M. The fabricated sensor displayed excellent stability, good anti-interference ability, along with acceptable reproducibility. The superior properties of the developed sensor could be attributed to the newly designed AQ-PF 6 -IL, wherein the redox characteristics of AQ mediator are integrated with the high stability and conductivity of IL.
