Brominated graphene (GBR) with ∼3% bromine content has shown novel peroxidase mimetic activity toward 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of HO Optimum activity has been observed at pH 4.48 and after a minimum ∼30 min of equilibration time. Among the different analytes studied using the sensor combining TMB, HO, and GBR in phosphate buffer of pH 4.48, the S ion has effectively shown a short duration of sensing (∼2 min) within the detection range of 0.04-1 mM. A calibration curve for S ion estimation has been constructed with the experimental linearity in 0.04-0.4 mM range and having the limit of detection (LOD) value of 25.3 μM. A standard addition experiment has validated the method. A paper strip sensor has been fabricated for successful detection of S ion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
