Title: Co-Doped CeO2/Activated C Nanocomposite Functionalized with Ionic Liquid for Colorimetric Biosensing of H2O2 via Peroxidase Mimicking. Author: Khaliq A, Nazir R, Khan M, Rahim A, Asad M, Shah M, Khan M, Ullah R, Ali EA, Khan A, Nishan U. Journal: Molecules; 2023 Apr 09; 28(8):. PubMed ID: 37110559. Abstract: Hydrogen peroxide acts as a byproduct of oxidative metabolism, and oxidative stress caused by its excess amount, causes different types of cancer. Thus, fast and cost-friendly analytical methods need to be developed for H2O2. Ionic liquid (IL)-coated cobalt (Co)-doped cerium oxide (CeO2)/activated carbon (C) nanocomposite has been used to assess the peroxidase-like activity for the colorimetric detection of H2O2. Both activated C and IL have a synergistic effect on the electrical conductivity of the nanocomposites to catalyze the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The Co-doped CeO2/activated C nanocomposite has been synthesized by the co-precipitation method and characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometry, FTIR, SEM, EDX, Raman spectroscopy, and XRD. The prepared nanocomposite was functionalized with IL to avoid agglomeration. H2O2 concentration, incubation time, pH, TMB concentration, and quantity of the capped nanocomposite were tuned. The proposed sensing probe gave a limit of detection of 1.3 × 10-8 M, a limit of quantification of 1.4 × 10-8 M, and an R2 of 0.999. The sensor gave a colorimetric response within 2 min at pH 6 at room temperature. The co-existing species did not show any interference during the sensing probe. The proposed sensor showed high sensitivity and selectivity and was used to detect H2O2 in cancer patients' urine samples.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
