Electrochemical Detection of Hydrogen Peroxide by Inhibiting the p-Benzenediboronic Acid-Triggered Assembly of Citrate-Capped Au/Ag Nanoparticles on Electrode Surface.

ABSTRACT: Metal nanoparticles (NPs) possess unique physicochemical attributes for creating effective recognition and transduction processes in chem/bio-sensing. In this work, we suggested that citrate-capped Au/Ag NPs could be used as the reporters for the design of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) sensors with a simple manipulation principle and an easy detection procedure. Specifically, p-benzenediboronic acid (BDBA) induced the aggregation of citrate-capped Au NPs through the cross-linking reaction between citrate and boronic acid of BDBA in solution. By modifying the electrode with a boronic acid derivative, the BDBA-induced assembly of Au NPs was achieved on the electrode surface. This led to a significant decrease in the electron transfer resistance due to the unique conductive ability of Au NPs. However, when the boronate group on the electrode surface was oxidized into its phenol format, the assembly of Au NPs on the electrode surface was not achieved. As a result, a higher electron transfer resistance was observed. The process could be monitored by electrochemical impedance technique. Furthermore, when Ag NPs were used instead of Au NPs in this design, the H₂O₂ concentration could be determined by measuring the linear-sweep voltammetry (LSV) current through the solid-state Ag/AgCl reaction of Ag NPs. The results indicated that NP-based colorimetric assays could be developed into more sensitive electrochemical analysis.

Au@Ag nanostructures for the sensitive detection of hydrogen peroxide.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important molecule in biological and environmental systems. In living systems, H2O2 plays essential functions in physical signaling pathways, cell growth, differentiation, and proliferation. Plasmonic nanostructures have attracted significant research attention in the fields of catalysis, imaging, and sensing applications because of their unique properties. Owing to the difference in the reduction potential, silver nanostructures have been proposed for the detection of H2O2. In this work, we demonstrate the Au@Ag nanocubes for the label- and enzyme-free detection of H2O2. Seed-mediated synthesis method was employed to realize the Au@Ag nanocubes with high uniformity. The Au@Ag nanocubes were demonstrated to exhibit the ability to monitor the H2O2 at concentration levels lower than 200 µM with r2 = 0.904 of the calibration curve and the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.11 µM. In the relatively narrow range of the H2O2 at concentration levels lower than 40 µM, the LOD was calculated to be 0.60 µM with r2 = 0.941 of the calibration curve of the H2O2 sensor. This facile fabrication strategy of the Au@Ag nanocubes would provide inspiring insights for the label- and enzyme-free detection of H2O2.

SERS and Indicator Paper Sensing of Hydrogen Peroxide Using Au@Ag Nanorods.

Project description:The detection of hydrogen peroxide and the control of its concentration are important tasks in the biological and chemical sciences. In this paper, we developed a simple and quantitative method for the non-enzymatic detection of H2O2 based on the selective etching of Au@Ag nanorods with embedded Raman active molecules. The transfer of electrons between silver atoms and hydrogen peroxide enhances the oxidation reaction, and the Ag shell around the Au nanorod gradually dissolves. This leads to a change in the color of the nanoparticle colloid, a shift in LSPR, and a decrease in the SERS response from molecules embedded between the Au core and Ag shell. In our study, we compared the sensitivity of these readouts for nanoparticles with different Ag shell morphology. We found that triangle core-shell nanoparticles exhibited the highest sensitivity, with a detection limit of 10-4 M, and the SERS detection range of 1 × 10-4 to 2 × 10-2 M. In addition, a colorimetric strategy was applied to fabricate a simple indicator paper sensor for fast detection of hydrogen peroxide in liquids. In this case, the concentration of hydrogen peroxide was qualitatively determined by the change in the color of the nanoparticles deposited on the nitrocellulose membrane.

Citrate-Capped Hybrid Au-TiO<sub>2</sub> Nanomaterial for Facile and Enhanced Electrochemical Hydrazine Oxidation.

Project description:Effective and facile electrochemical oxidation of chemical fuels is pivotal for fuel cell applications. Herein, we report the electrocatalytic oxidation of hydrazine on a citrate-capped Au-TiO2-modified glassy carbon electrode, which follows two different oxidation paths. These two pathways of hydrazine oxidation are ascribed to occur on Au and the activated TiO2 surface of the Au-TiO2 hybrid electrocatalyst. This activation was achieved through molecular capping of the Au-TiO2 surface by citrate, which leads to favorable hydrazine oxidation with a lower Tafel slope compared to that of the clean surface of the respective materials, that is, Au and TiO2.

Seeded Growth of Large-Area Arrays of Substrate Supported Au Nanoparticles Using Citrate and Hydrogen Peroxide.

Project description:While seeded growth of quasi-spherical colloidal Au nanoparticles (NPs) has been extensively explored in the literature, the growth of surface supported arrays of such particles has received less attention. The latter scenario offers some significant challenges, including the attainment of sufficient particle-substrate adhesion, growth-selectivity, and uniform mass-transport. To this end, a reaction system consisting of HAuCl4, citrate, and H2O2 is here investigated for the growth of supported arrays of 10 nm Au seeds, derived via block copolymer (BCP) lithography. The effects of the reagent concentrations on the properties of the resultant NPs are evaluated. It is found that inclusion of citrate in the growth medium causes substantial particle desorption from Si surfaces. However, the presence of citrate also yields NPs with more uniformly circular top-view cross sections ("quasi-circular"), motivating the exploration of particle immobilization methods. We demonstrate that atomic layer deposition (ALD) of a single cycle of HfO2 (∼1 Å), after the seed particle formation, promotes adhesion sufficiently to enable the use of citrate without the added oxide noticeably affecting the shape of the resultant NPs. The presented ALD-based approach differs from the conventional sequence of depositing the adhesion layer prior to the seed particle formation and may have advantages in various processing schemes, such as when surface grafting of brush layers is required in the BCP lithography process. A proof-of-concept is provided for the growth of large-area arrays of supported "quasi-circular" Au NPs, in a rapid one-step process at room temperature.

Green Preparation of Ag-Au Bimetallic Nanoparticles Supported on Graphene with Alginate for Non-Enzymatic Hydrogen Peroxide Detection.

Project description:In this work, a facile, environmentally friendly method was demonstrated for the synthesis of Ag-Au bimetallic nanoparticles (Ag-AuNPs) supported on reduced graphene oxide (RGO) with alginate as reductant and stabilizer. The prepared Ag-AuNPs/RGO was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicated that uniform, spherical Ag-AuNPs was evenly dispersed on graphene surface and the average particle size is about 15 nm. Further, a non-enzymatic sensor was subsequently constructed through the modified electrode with the synthesized Ag-AuNPs/RGO. The sensor showed excellent performance toward H?O? with a sensitivity of 112.05 μA·cm−2·mM−1, a linear range of 0.1?10 mM, and a low detection limit of 0.57 μM (S/N = 3). Additionally, the sensor displayed high sensitivity, selectivity, and stability for the detection of H?O?. The results demonstrated that Ag-AuNPs/RGO has potential applications as sensing material for quantitative determination of H?O?.

Simultaneous Electrochemical Detection of Nitrite and Hydrogen Peroxide Based on 3D Au-rGO/FTO Obtained Through a One-Step Synthesis.

Project description:In this paper, Au and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) were successively deposited on fluorine-doped SnO? transparent conductive glass (FTO, 1 × 2 cm) via a facile and one-step electrodeposition method to form a clean interface and construct a three-dimensional network structure for the simultaneous detection of nitrite and hydrogen peroxide (H?O?). For nitrite detection, 3D Au-rGO/FTO displayed a sensitivity of 419 ?A mM-1 cm-2 and a linear range from 0.0299 to 5.74 mM, while for the detection of H?O?, the sensitivity was 236 ?A mM-1 cm-2 and a range from 0.179 to 10.5 mM. The combined results from scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction measurements (XRD) and electrochemical tests demonstrated that the properties of 3D Au-rGO/FTO were attributabled to the conductive network consisting of rGO and the good dispersion of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) which can provide better electrochemical properties than other metal compounds, such as a larger electroactive surface area, more active sites, and a bigger catalytic rate constant.

Spectroscopically clean Au nanoparticles for catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.

Project description:Au nanoparticles synthesized from colloidal techniques have the capability in many applications such as catalysis and sensing. Au nanoparticles function as both catalyst and highly sensitive SERS probe can be employed for sustainable and green catalytic process. However, capping ligands that are necessary to stabilize nanoparticles during synthesis are negative for catalytic activity. In this work, a simple effective mild thermal treatment to remove capping ligands meanwhile preserving the high SERS sensitivity of Au nanoparticles is reported. We show that under the optimal treatment conditions (250 °C for 2 h), 50 nm Au nanoparticles surfaces are free from any capping molecules. The catalytic activity of treated Au nanoparticles is studied through H2O2 decomposition, which proves that the treatment is favorable for catalytic performance improvement. A reaction intermediate during H2O2 decomposition is observed and identified.

Hydrogen Peroxide-Generating Electrochemical Scaffold Activity against Trispecies Biofilms.

Project description:The antibiofilm activity of a hydrogen peroxide-generating electrochemical scaffold (e-scaffold) was determined against mono- and trispecies biofilms of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans Significant time-dependent decreases were found in the overall CFU of biofilms of all three monospecies and the trispecies forms. Confocal laser scanning microscopy showed dramatic reductions in fluorescence intensities of biofilm matrix protein and polysaccharide components of e-scaffold-treated biofilms. The described e-scaffold has potential as a novel antibiotic-free strategy for treating wound biofilms.

Substrate oxidation enhances the electrochemical production of hydrogen peroxide.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is electrochemically produced via oxygen (O2) reduction on a carbon cathode surface. In order to enhance the production of H2O2, anodic loss pathways, which significantly reduce the overall H2O2 production rate, should be inhibited. In this study, we investigate the effects of organic electron donors (i.e., typical chemical contaminants) on the anodic loss pathways of H2O2 in a single-cell electrochemical reactor that employs an anode composed of TiO2 over-coated on a mixed-metal oxide ohmic contact catalyst, Ir0.7Ta0.3O2, deposited on a Ti-metal that is coupled with a graphite rod cathode in a sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) electrolyte that is saturated with oxygen (O2). Organic electron donors are shown to enhance the electrochemical production of H2O2, while simultaneously undergoing oxidative degradation. The observed positive effect of organic electron donors on the electrochemical production of H2O2 is due in part to a preferential adsorption of organic substrates on the TiO2 outer layer of the anode. The sorption of the organic electron donors inhibits the formation of surficial titanium hydroperoxo species ([bond, triple bond]Ti-OOH) on the anode surface. The organic sorbates also act as scavengers of surface-bound hydroxyl radical [bond, triple bond]Ti-OH. As a result, the decomposition of H2O2 on the anode surface is significantly reduced. The cathodic production rate of H2O2 at low pH is enhanced due to proton coupled electron transfer (PCET) to O2, while the anodic decomposition of H2O2 is inhibited due to electrostatic interactions between negatively-charged organic substrates and a positively-charged outer surface of the anode (TiO2 pHzpc = 5.8) at low pH.

Dual-Surfactant-Capped Ag Nanoparticles as a Highly Selective and Sensitive Colorimetric Sensor for Citrate Detection.

Project description:A colorimetric sensor for the detection of citrate ions is reported here using dual-surfactant-capped Ag nanoparticles (dual-AgNP sensor). A mixture of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and a newly prepared gemini nonionic (GFEO) surfactant was used as a capping agent to synthesize dual-surfactant-capped Ag NPs for selective and sensitive citrate detection. The GFEO surfactant was designed with a specific chemical structure to provide strong binding with citrate for selective and sensitive detection. The developed dual-AgNP sensor showed extremely high selectivity toward citrate even in the presence of interfering species. Quantitative detection of citrate was carried out based on the changes in UV-vis absorbance and naked-eye readout. After optimization, the dual-AgNP sensor exhibited a visual detection limit of 25 μM and a low limit of detection of 4.05 nM with a UV-vis spectrometer. The developed citrate sensor performed well with a urine sample, with a high recovery of 99.6%. The prepared solution sensor was constructed on a paper-based analytical device.
